Bruce Campbell's Best/Worst horror list


Recommended Posts

And Alien is sci-fi more than horror.

Alien isn't really sci-fi at all, but that's just me, life long horror fan, splitting hairs. For all intents and purposes, yeah, you're right.

 

His best list was fine, but his worst list left something to be desired, I think. But that's a hard thing to narrow down, I think there's probably more bad horror out there than any other genre of film, except porn.

I really want to see Chopping Mall. It sounds great. Aside from The Sixth Sense which I thought sucked, their is no real problem with his list.

I see Alien as psychological horror in a sci-fi enviroment....of course that changed with Aliens when it turned into more of a sci fi/action movie. I think Terminator fits into this equation as well, the first one the Terminator was kind of like a hi-tech slasher who just used guns instead of knives n such, whereas T2 went into a more mainstream sci-fi/blockbuster action flick

THANK YOU! You're the only person to think about those movies the same way I do.

ya know when you're talking about horror, a worst list isn't necassarily a bad thing and doesn't mean the person is insulting the movie.

 

A horror worst of list can be considered a best of list when you look at it in the right way.

I've always seen Alien as sci-fi from the first day I watched it.

 

The issue here is that sci-fi and horror are so similar and borrow so heavily from each other it is hard to seperate some movies unless they are like Star Trek or Night of the Living Dead.

 

Those both scream out their genre.
