    Well have you asked the majority of film fans and/or horror fans? Did you do a survey or something? Please, post us the results.

    Halloween '78, 2, 4, 5, 6, H20 = Slasher flicks.
    Halloween Resurrection = It doesn't exist.
    Halloween '07 = Irrelevant piece of shit flick. So shitty I can't simply forget it like Resurrection.
    Halloween 2 '09 = Horribly made, ghost horse comedy. I want to forget it, but come on it has a ghost horse and Shri's shitty acting. Who can forget that!?

    This debate is a waste. It's like asking is water wet? Let's go back to the topic...."It Follows"

    LOL...agreed...but debating about Halloween being a slasher flick or not is going to chase away potential new members. If I was visiting here for the first time and saw a debate like this going on I'd be like "fuck this place" and move on.

    Agreed.

    I've already said my piece as most have, move this "slasher" topic to its own thread if everyone wants it to continue, it doesn't really belong here.

    Alright orlok, that's enough. Like others have said if you want to continue the discussion then you may make your own thread in Horror Topics or General. You've been warned, any further discussion here will result in repeated infractions.

    Anyway, uh, I actually liked It Follows. Wasn't the most innovative and it did have some pacing issues, but I thought it was decent enough. I loved the soundtrack and the fact that it was different. I hated the conflict resolution though.


    Spoiler...
    It was so easy to kill these things



    And I actually dug the ending

    For what it's worth the movie isn't for me but I did like the music. I actually found some of it on SoundCloud

    But that pool scene was right out of an 80s horror movie. Its some random dumb shit we would see kids in an 80s movie come up with, "ok rob, you throw the blanket on the ghost, kim you throw the bucket of water on him, ill strap these jumper cables to his nipples..... thats how we kill it!". Think about the nonsense ways weve seen ppl try to kill Jason or Freddy or Chucky. This is right in line.

    The problem is it is out of line with the tone of the movie.

    I think it was more or less young kids who had no clue what to do, and were resorting to anything.
