Scary, but for all the wrong reasons
Personally, while I was happy the Academy Awards did something for horror movies, the segment itself was lacking. Don't get me wrong, I LOVED that they included Whatever Happened to Baby Jane? and some tried and true classics, but they included alot of clips of not-the-best movies simply for the fact that those movies produced later big names like Zellweger and Aniston and such. Guess what: we know where they got their start. Yay, good for them. But the space those clips took up could have been used for some seriously awesome clips from movies like oh, I don't know, movies that were actually scary like Saw or Hostel and such. Where were they? And they included Twilight (barf, that is NOT a horror film by genre, it's scary for it's own teenage melodramatic reasons) and Edward Scissorhands. Edward Scissorhands? That is so far removed from horror (though definitely an awesome movie)! I guess I should be happy they did anything at all, but still....What were your thoughts?
