u look pretty

Actually, I went to a scriptwriting seminar once. It was said that everything in the world has already been written. Nothing is original anymore and everything is just a rewrite. If you think you’ve got an original idea, it’s not. It has already been made into a film or is in a book, you just don’t know it yet. lol.

So I guess it’s not just the horror genre? It’s hard to get anything original in any genre.

I suppose the reason horror has stalled is because it really never went beyond the “B” category. You won’t be seeing a horror flick winning an Oscar unless it’s in a technical category. And even thats a stretch.

I will tip my hat to the person who can make an original horror flick because so far everything up until now has been done several times. It will take a great writer a great director and a great acting team to pull something off original.

shin: Wow, you’re really crazy. I guess you really enjoy scaring yourself. :P

Juz: I hate watching horror movies, you see, so I’ll only watch one if the plot really attracts me and I have to watch it to find out what happens. Haha. Rule #1 sounds interesting enough as a normal movie, but doesn’t make me need to find out what happens, so I don’t want to scare myself for nothing!

Christina: Yeah, I know. I was really nervous before watching The Screen and every minute before the movie started, I regretted agreeing to watch it. Haha. But okay lah, it’s not all that frightening after all. :P

Mike M: I think the trend in horror movies is moving away from blood and gore. I would say a good horror movie is something that takes something very ordinary and mundane in life and making it into something scary so you’ll feel scared even in the day because you always come into contact with it. The Ring started that for me, by making the TV a really scary thing. It was really so bad that I even felt frightened looking at my computer monitor. Haha.

modchip: The trailer looks pretty good, actually.

Mother: Hah, yeah. She’s really pretty. I couldn’t stop admiring her throughout the whole movie.

Minou: I didn’t watch horror movies until last year, when I was forced to end my horror-boycott because I had to do research for a horror short film I was acting in. Strangely, those few movies didn’t freak me out as much as I expected, so I was able to watch more and more horror after that. Maybe acting in horror shows helps. lol.

Monster: Oh, I wouldn’t watch horror movies if I lived alone, too!!

Melly: Hiya! Thanks for visiting my blog and dropping a comment! I don’t think I’ve ever watched any Indonesian horror films. Now I’m curious to see one! Hehe! So would you say most Indonesians really like being scared to death, that’s why all the movies are like what you say? :P

JokeDiary: Nope, I decided to stop playing those free online games. They’re usually not very good. I mean, they can be fun, and I’ve spent many hours playing them, but they’re not as good as paid games and if I have time to spend on games, I want a really good game. :P

zield: lol, that would be really freaky!! But I think people would notice because a real body would smell.
