That Raiders scene has always repulsed me, and - as I said on your site - I dig the Blue Velvet and Blood Simple stuff.<br /><br />Great stuff!The Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09871017982169159144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132620721136610844.post-20948220145078045452011-06-19T11:31:36.704-05:002011-06-19T11:31:36.704-05:00+JMJ+

It makes so much sense that the more artsy film directors would borrow a lot from Horror, the only genre which is <i>consistent</i> in exploring the universal themes of morality, tragedy, and even religion. Yes, more consistent than even "art films." <br /><br />It has been a while since I've seen <i>Raiders of the Lost Ark</i>, so I thought that first screencap was from <i>Who Framed Roger Rabbit?</i>. Some age-appropriate Horror for kids that ties into Syrin's guest post! ;-)Enbrethilielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03414765854670926854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6132620721136610844.post-24945965620173526152011-06-17T14:29:11.890-05:002011-06-17T14:29:11.890-05:00Glad you mentioned E.T.

I used to think I didn't care for horror films at all, but once I started to watch horror movies, I started to realize just how many movies I had already seen with horror elements. It's also a large part of why I chose the theme for my guest post earlier this week - Horror really is everywhere!therealphoenixanewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06728133971705657561noreply@blogger.com
