Not my scene fam.But see, what I'm saying is, this is not what horror movies are about. Most aren't scary, and most horror fans do not watch them just to be scared. Evil Dead 2 is a comedy. You don't watch it to be scared.Well that's fine but I also left out the detail that I generally don't watch a lot of movies anyway. Only ones I really find interesting or if friends or family want to go with me.fucking faggot

I'm fine as long as the gore isn't too real.
