<< There is a difference between horror and humour >>
I realize I am from the dumb masses and haven't earned
a Harvard degree nor am I a rocket scientist BUT is
there anyone on this list, for example, that has a
problem differentiating horror from humor? What
studies and philosophies cannot do this without thinking
about it? sometimes I truly wonder about these types
of "thinkers".....
If there is a guy showing up in your dreams with razor blades
on a glove and it is his honest mission in life to make YOUR life a living
hell before he slices and dices you, then it is HORROR. If said guy with
glove of death goes by Frederick "Freddy" Kreuger, then he is using HUMOR or
HUMOUR while ripping your intestines out. It is all so alimentary my dear
Sherlocks, alimentary... hehe
