Jurassic Park - Great
Still get the same feelings as when I first saw it in the theater.

Deep Cover - Good
It's late 80's, early 90's action movie over the top acting. So, it's fun.
Not according to sales or critics though.Malignant almost great
This isn't trueNot according to sales or critics though.
It's a 65% on Rotten. It's 35% on Metacritic. He is correct.This isn't true
Malignant almost great
100%. I listen to what horror media / fans say, even then my own tastes often conflict with theirs You have to assume that standard critics are never going to rate any genre film highly. Critics hated essentially every major horror or comedy film that's considered a classic now.Gotta grade horror movies on a curve IMO.

I agree, but that's not what this particular discussion is about. It's the same old nonsense of white is black and I don't believe anything outside of my own mind even when presented with irrefutable evidence.100%.

The genre has a fatal flaw...I mean who the f*** is genuinly getting scared watching them? Then add in that most horror movies are poorly made and written.Gotta grade horror movies on a curve IMO.
I did say nope because the 2 by chance horror reviews I came across for it highly praised it.It's a 65% on Rotten. It's 35% on Metacritic. He is correct.

I will take the L for this.
I posted a few pages back that I don't go by reviews for movies and music.
Still a L regardless.

I prefer horror films that make you think, or give you a uneasy feeling while watching, or just plain creepy.
I mean we haven’t been truly scared since we were young growing up watch the old films that gave you nightmares lol.

So the audiences fatal flaw is expecting the the very essence of the genre which is in turn the fatal flaw of the genre.Horror Audiences have a Fatal Flaw: Unreasonable Nostalgia
Horror Fandom makes it really hard to support horror genre film that can work on a wider spectrum of just making you feel 'scared' or felling 'fear'. I think the toolset gets narrowed down to Jump Scares, attempts at new Monsters or Slashers, or playing on common human phobias like fear of Spiders.
Attempts are made at Sci-Fi / Horror but it's hard to get as strong support for it, or worse the movie second guesses itself so hard it turns into a mess trying to appease hard horror fans.
Thinking about watching Malignant but ya'll all over the place on it. Big James Wan fan though.
