I want to apologize to say I was commenting on the part where horror is getting disrespect just because Vamprechaun exists.
While you may hate Lords of Salem and thought Frankenstein's Army was just okay, while I may agree to disagree and others having their opinions which is also good I have nothing against that, even so while they may be bad to some they should be admired because they at least tried to be something interesting and original which Horror and every media is desperately in need of. It needs more originality, something new, something different.
Vamprechaun isn't the problem here, I haven't seen it so I can't really defend it nor can I say it'll be a terrible film because it hasn't come out yet. It's the ones who make the films that are the problem if they don't know how to tell a creepy uneasy narrative nor maske it entertaining enough. I'll agree with the saturation of the genre having too many over-blown zombie films, lifetime-styled ghost/possession movies, vampires that want to be scary but are too human to be so, almost no werewolf movies, Syfy kranking out bullshit that's either a travesty to the world of indie flicks (which it is) or what others may think are golden turds. Just to know it will be a bad film can relinquish my high-expectations for it, and you know what? There's nothing wrong with loving bad movies of any kinds when having fun with them.
Terror Toons is going to be a horror trilogy and I know it's going to be a fantastic horror trilogy that all horror fans SHOULD accept for how bad they are. It's cartoons going around killing people in horrific and morbidly funny gory ways, because with it being stupid of an idea that does the idea PERFECTLY despite the endless hate Joe Castro gets for those films Terror Toons is a series of horror films that are FANTASTIC because they're bad, not you, me or any filmmaker would have the balls to make such a monstrosity about killer cartoons, but Joe Castro did! I myself think it's a travesty that the Horror genre can't accept bad films, everything has to be perfect.
If you want the Horror genre to be taken seriously, you have to accept that it must have a variety of good, bad-good and terrible, terrible films exist in any genre of film and any kind of mainstream and indie flicks, if we can embrace the most horrific and disturbing horror films that make you feel as such, we should also have fun with horror films that can't be taken so seriously.
I know there's not enough slow-build, atmospheric, creative and disturbing horror movies (except in the independent scene if you look hard enough), but it's okay to have at least a Vamprechaun franchise just to know anyone can have fun with the Horror genre.
