anyone who thinks slasher remakes post 2004 are good needs to be studied in a lab. or maybe theyre just straight and need to not talk about horror
#straight women will never understand horror rip to them but gays do it better#yes this is about the Netflix texas chainsaw#the gore isnt good its just cgi#bring back gooey corn syrup blood and killers that are actually interesting#i wont deny 09 jason was very sexy but hes not ken kirzinger and that movie missed the point of f13 anyway#but seriously ive seen clips of the new massacre and just....it looks so bad and all of those people need to die#im not gonna say tc3d was fantastic but it was easily the third best AND it had the respect of gunnar hansan marilyn burns and bill moseley#and it was a genuinely interesting story and like one of the few exceptions to the rule of 'victims arent everyday people'#which is the trend nowadays in slasher rip offs#this is going to be just as bad as leatherface 17#because you cannot relate to the kids that get killed and theyre tiktokers THEY DESERVE TO DIE!!!!#but they dont give leatherface enough personality to make him scary OR sympathetic#tc has always been terrifying because you KNOW bubba is a product of his environment but hes also SO BIG and strong that you cant get away#and you know this#old slashers were terrifying because theh could have happened to anyone#og tc is innocent kids on a roadtrip checking out an inheritance and they were normal humans for fucks sake one of them was in a wheelchair#new tc is a bunch of shitty influencers invading a town they had no right to be gentrifying#also its so fucking disrespectful to try to drop sally into the story#isnt marilyn burns dead anyway?#like yes it worked for Halloween because its fucking jamie lee curtis and shes just Like That and was set up for this#when she was in scream queens kicking ass like she always has#tc is too old and happened during the height of the serial killer fascination she would have run and never looked back#anyway i fucking hate new slashers (fear street and scream not withstanding because the franchise is still running)#and i dont think as long as theyre going to be bad and ignore the source they should be given money#especially by people who dont understand the draw of the source anywah ๐Ÿ™ƒ#its about the revenge fantasies ๐Ÿ‘Œ and the possibility it could be anyone#anyway i think i have to unfollow someone cause they just......are too straight to understand what makes a horror story good#also i have nothing against the collector it fits its genre really well but it is modern horror and idk if it should be called a slasher as#mucj as it is splatterhouse#but i digrest
