In talking with a couple of my fellow horror lovers I have found there are some films in our beloved genre people just plain refuse to watch. One person told me she hated Hostel because of its torture porn mentality, it was just too gory for her. Now to me that’s just crazy talk. The gorier the better, I say. But, I have to admit to hating the sequel because, it did go too far, and I think the writer was getting off on seeing how far he could torture his female victims. Just me and my feministic views perhaps, but I say re-watch Hostel 2 and keep in mind, the boys in the previous films were never stripped before they were tortured. Off my soapbox and moving on with the conversation at hand.

A second friend said they wouldn’t watch anything involving spit. Yeah, I’m side-eyeing her as well. A lot of people are on the angry side about I Spit on Your Grave being remade. I hear ya, but the original was so batshit I’m curious to see what they do with it. Now, I did have an extremely hard time sitting through Jack Ketchum’s The Girl Next Door. I think I just have a hard time watching anyone abuse a woman in any way.

Other than that I am usually down for anything, hell I’m so excited for the sequel to The Human Centipede, but there are a few I will not watch and they all involve RATS. Anything with rats, swarms of rats, rat noises, talk of rats – all bad! I hate that fuckin’ Kia commercial, hip-hop rats, STILL giant rats. In other words, I will not watch Willard, Ben, the remake of Willard, or Food of the Gods. All of those movies can fuck off!

So peeps what won’t you watch? Or, are you so twisted you are down with anything?
