If you were in a horror movie...

I think if you add in a fully equipped TGC member to nearly any horror movie, you're going to cause a genre shift to plain old science fiction or fantasy.

Oh, it'll still be a horror movie. Just the victims will change.

The Gun Counter 3: Scream, Hippie, Scream!

Said movie title reminds me of 'The Tripper'. Serial killer / Reagan look-alike / son of a lumberjack put out of work by enviromentalists slaughters hippies at a hippie festival. Save for the protagonette, I was rooting for the Reagan look-alike the whole time.

Needs to be a documentary.

I take enthusiastic walks through the woods.

And kill homicidal vampire priests?

Interesting coincidence. My daughter is also a horror movie aficionado. She considers me incorrigible, and has pretty much given up asking me to chaperone.

A couple of years ago, there was some "Stephen King" type horror movie set in some New England town that she had to see in the theater. Anyway, lots of fog and creepy crawlies. She got upset because I kept laughing. She asked why I was snickering, I told her I thought it ridiculous that person X's reaction to some situation was Y and why didn't they do Z? I also thought the crawlies were pretty amusing. She said I ruined the movie experience for her.

In addition, the movie looked like a remake of a campy sci-fi/ horror flick with the X-files actor - I don't recall his name. Anyway, that was done as a comedy, and the creepy crawlies looked like they were recycled from that movie, which didn't help the suspense.

Earlier this year, she suggested I see a sci-fi/ horror flick with her about some creepy aliens attacking earth starring Tom Cruise. The plot gimmick is that Tom Cruise keeps dying and waking up in the same scene over and over again. I said "So Tom Cruise did a remake of 'Groundhog Day'?"

Cue "roll eyes" and "Daddy!!! You're impossible!"

It can be hard to take horror movies seriously when the Big Bad is some alien or paranormal thing. The people in 2004's "War of the Worlds" scare me more than the aliens.

^^That.

Bruce Campbell with a shotgun was what happens when you put a TGC member into a horror flick.
"Hey, Screwheads?...KABLAM!"
It ceases being about horror, and becomes adventure fantasy within about 5 rounds of buckshot.

Screw the whole AVP series.
What I want is eight or ten 80's action stars a la The Expendables to take the franchise full retard, a go after Jason, the House on Elm Street, Chucky, etc.
Wipe out franchises in 90 minutes it took 30 years to build up.
Everyone makes multimillions, and after you've milked it to death you can have them tag-team Godzilla and King Kong.
Bonus points if Maverick and Iceman swoop in with napalm and Hellfires for the final scene.

Hasn't Correia sold options on MHI? That would fit the ticket perfectly. If Hollywood managed to not screw it up.
