yikes!

saw this photo over at happy pallace which both f and mr.b agreed was creepy. it is isn’t it? why is it if something this banal can creep people out that movie makers can’t slap together even a marginally scary film anymore? in my opinion there are two mistakes which are made again and again. 1- c.g. simple right? c.g. is almost never scary. latex and makeup will trump c.g. every time. 2- goofy, over-stylized, jump-cut direction. not scary. never was, never will be. anyhow, it just so happens that i also came across some images today which i thought were pretty gosh-danged creepy. i would crap myself if i opened a door and came unexpectedly upon any of these scenes: yikes, eek, god no, oh crap, shiiit, cripes!. yeesh. awful huh? so what say ye? what are the scare meisters in hollywood doing wrong?


Yikes! Did you find those browsing Furry sites?
