Thriller
a novel, play, or movie with an exciting plot, typically involving crime or espionage.


the one where jaws infiltrates an art theft ring is my favorite

Deep Blue Sea also has an evil shark in the movie, but it's not horror.

I feel like people just don't see murderous smart animal movies as horror.

Is there a version of this picture where the dog is wearing reading glasses, or does my mind just auto-complete the picture that way? Because they would fit in great.

From that reddit thread Curtis posted:
"The only difference between Jaws and a typical slasher film is the fact that the killer is confined to the water."

Discuss

If Jaws was a movie about a serial killer wearing a shark fin on his back, chilling in the ocean killing people maybe the opposition would be more open to it being horror.

Resident Evil was a great survival horror game until they introduced Neptune and turned it into a slapstick sharkcom.

Hang on here.

Jaws is Horror, but Deep Blue Sea is not.

Edit: It doesn’t matter though. I don't think everyone's being serious.

I mean, it's harder to argue against Deep Blue Sea being horror than Jaws, because Deep Blue Sea is tagged as horror in Wikipedia, imdb, etc. where Jaws is not.

Well it is now, except for your music thread

Igor's continued existence is a fuckin' horror movie.

I can't believe there was an argument that Alien isn't horror.

All of these thoughts were so innovative they needed their own post.
