Rubber Rooms & Post-Labor Day Fashion Faux Paus

[mela_lyn]

The nice men in the white coats, who I am very well acquainted with, have decided to do an experiment.  They released five 'residents' to see what they would do in society, allowing them to create havoc and run amok. *AMOK!AMOK!AMOK!*  (Channeling Sarah Jessica Parker in Hocus Pocus- would that be UF since it takes place in modern day with magic??)

Hocus Pocus is Horror. But light. Like Buffy and Angel.

Horror gets to transcend all that other stuff.
Think about it.

I don't want to think about it. Did I tell you I'm blonde? At least, that's what the box says... it actually looks reddish at the moment. Anyway, why would horror transcend 'all that other stuff'?

Alien: Horror SF.
Evil Vampires in a fantasy setting.
Imagine a Redcap in a UF setting.

I don't like horror that is about psycho killer/slashers.

I like supernatural horror, which would mean Horror / UF.

Ah, I can see that. But if it's labeled horror, I tend to shimmy away from it, watching it warily, and moving to another aisle where it can't see me. Put Disney on it and I'll love it and hug it and squeeze it to pieces! Put dragons in it and I'll buy it. Except Eragon... that was the worst movie (not just adaption) that I've ever seen. It is not allowed the gift of space on my shelf. Ever.
