What happened to liking scary movies?
I used to like horror movies. They'd freak me out a little, and then I'd laugh it off. Now it seems like I actually get scared when I watch anything in the genre. It isn't the suspense, or the gory make-up. It isn't really the plot... I mean it is, but it isn't at the same time. There's always the hero, there's always a bad guy. I don't understand it. I just watched 28 days later. It was super lame, but it scared me. The concept of being alone in the world is scary. I was trying to think of other, and now I can't. There have been other scary movies lately that made me need a light on at night. Oh, I remember... Identity. not the world's greatest movies, but christ...I still get creeped the fuck out when I think about it. Yet I was like 5 watching the Shining, and eating milk and cookies thinking that people don't freeze that fast. What have I become in my old age?
