He has a marvellous prose style. Draws you in and keeps you. Horrible man, and I hate his views on almost everything, but he writes like an angel.

fair enough. yeah i agree about Fassbender but he is a more accomplished experienced actor than Jonsson who has just started a career, so i'll cut him some slack.

No, they just need to act well when they're being killed.

It's better if there's good acting, but bad acting won't break a film for me. A Nightmare on Elm Street has some sub par acting, mostly from the mom and Nancy, but it's still a classic. Robert Englund's acting is great. The story is great.

Horror seems to be over, as a genre.
I apologize, but that’s incorrect. Some of my favorite movies that have been released this year are horror movies, like the Omen.

Of course. Especially psychological horror which is usually a slow burn and relies on excellent acting and direction. Even slasher movies deserve more than jump scares, buckets of blood and everything so dark you haven't got a clue what's happening.

Okay, you're the one person here who gets it. You will also appreciate it when I tell you that the possibly greatest horror movie of all time isn't even classified as horror:
Picnic at Hanging Rock
, which made me feel the uncanniness of the world for weeks after I watched it.
