budthedog is right, TF-Viewer is wrong.

I'm no horror expert, and I NEVER claimed to be such.

I'm sure guys like Stephen King, Wes Craven, John Carpenter, Lucio Fulci, Clive Barker and Bruce Campbell know more about horror than me.

I just like the genre.

If ANYONE here is claiming to be an horror expert, it's you, TF-Viewer.

Getting angry about "1408" being considered an horror movie? Getting angry about someone calling that creature "Frankenstein" instead of "Frankenstein's Monster"? Defending George Romero's honor like he was your brother? All of that reeks of desperate horror nerd to me.

This is the kind of guy who writes Tales From the Crypt fanfiction and gets angry when people forget "Carrie" was based on a book.
