Yes, it's both. You don't like horror?

Yeah I figured lol.
It’s the gore that I dont like about it and I’m sensitive about that stuff. Thrillers are good though

Sometimes thrillers can get a bit gory. Actions too. Do they disturb you as much when or is it that it feels nastier with horror movies?

Horror films over do it and it’s way more graphic. Some action and thrillers might have a little bit of it but it’s not at least throughout the whole movie. Halloween was too much. If it’s a good enough storyline I usually just close my eyes at the gory scenes lol

I see. What about non gory horror? Like ghost stories or the more psychological stuff?

Those are better. But ghost stories I don’t like because they freak me out too much

I wish those still worked on me.

Longlegs was the first film I've seen by him and after enjoying that one and The Monkey, I definitely need to watch the rest of his filmography. If it holds up, he could be up there with Eggers, Aster and Flanagan as far as contemporary horror directors go.

The one I like that everyone hates, is early work from him. It's very different from his other films. It's very slow (that's what people hate about it), but I thought it was quite beautiful.
