Halloween: what if the very concept of fate were stalking you

Friday the 13th: what if someone so blinded by rage were trying to kill you for something you didn’t do and couldn’t have stopped

Child’s Play: what if you were about to be killed and no one believed you

A Nightmare on Elm Street: what if your killer were waiting within your own dreams and your death were an inevitability because of your need to sleep

Scream: what if there were two Redditors

One of those Tiktok edits of Patrick Bateman that starts with him saying “I’m simply not there”, and then it cuts to a bunch of different shots in the movie, except he has been edited out of them.

Jesse: Subs are so fun to play with. All you have to do is hint at what you might do, back them into a corner with a look, or grab their wrist in a certain way and they're a wide-eyed mess.

Dean: What the fuck kind of Subway are you going to?

Kris: Substitute teachers deal with so much shit.

Quentin: Guys.

I think when the saw traps started to get actually kinda degrading / sexualized is when they lost me….

They heard us ranking the traps by horniness and took it literally….. 👎

The early installments’ directors Understood. The traps are hot because there’s absolutely nothing sexual about them.

This might not make sense to non-sawheads who see them all as “torture p/rn” but there IS a difference.

In earlier films, there’s basically zero cringey fanservice, the traps actually felt like a man like Jigsaw would design them. Morally scrupulous but for.. unusual morality lol.

Traps should be a plain (albeit terrifying) canvas, onto which we as fans can PROJECT additional meaning.

But once that sexual humiliation is directly implied from the trap itself….? Yeah you lost me.

I’m sorry but the Jigsaw apprentice I KNOW would never have strapped her to the ceiling like that in Saw 3D ☝️

Patrick Bateman is literally the character of all time. He's a yuppie. He hates his job even though he never does any actual work. He listens to Walking on Sunshine. He may or may not be a serial killer. He tells people upfront that he's a killer and nobody listens to him. He listens to Huey Lewis and the News. He denied ever listening to Huey Lewis and the News when confronted by a detective. He has every single personality and mental disorder under the sun. He fully crashed out when Paul Allen's business card was better than his. He's gay. He's homophobic. The only reason he didn't kill one of his other co-workers was because he came on to him. He works out to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. He's a raging bigot but he is NOT an antisemite. He can't tell what's real and what isn't. His go to excuse for leaving a conversation is, "I have to return some videotapes." He (may or may not have) chased a woman with an active chainsaw and nobody heard him. He likes cats and will only hurt them if an ATM demands he feed it one. His wealth and status mean more to him than anything in the world and it doesn't make him happy and nobody cares about him. The one person who actually cares about him just discovered his book full of drawings of murdered women. He would rather do all of that than go to therapy. And he STILL can't get a reservation at Dorsia.

how do i say "horror novels these days are too woke" without sounding like a right winger. what i mean is: this one is about a woman serial killer who kills Bad Men, that one is about ~anticapitalist activists~, this one is ~queer~, that one is about *spins wheel* someone dealing with the ghosts of their immigrant roots, all of them are about intergenerational traumaaaaa. okay. cool. but is it good though. is it fucking scary

[jessaerys]

something something, losing the ability to convey horror through abstraction, through metaphor, through symbolism, through allegory, through raw unexamined un-psychiatrized feeling. if the real horror is.... dun dun dun! the patriarchy then i just feel preached to. don't use fiction as a vehicle for Saying Something About Society. write with total vulnerability and then see what it says. it will be probably be far more interesting and horrifying than what if the monster was uhh my mom's abuse or whatever. this brand of new horror writers are all so terrified of actually disclosing anything about themselves. it's like if an instagram infographic performance was a mediocre contemporary novel

Nadia Teichmann and Spencer Charnas are a great example of the Gomez Addams method: pulling a beautiful woman by being weird and passionate about your interests
