60th: Horror Movies

Paul found his way to horror in a very roundabout way, involving the YMCA and wrestling podcasts. Despite that long path, he has arrived at his destination! That destination is horror movies! He has started with Amityville Horror, and has moved on to The Conjuring.

This leads to a discussion of the whole sequence of Conjuring movies, which Paul has seen, but Sean hasn't. Some of them are closer to what Paul likes in his horror movies, some less so, so we talk about different types of horror movies, with different levels of reveal about the supernatural element, and different levels of gore.

We seem to narrow down on the type of creepy that we like in our horror, along the lines of The Ring and Paranormal Activity. Also, we talk about how horror movies can modify our consciousness.

We finish up by talking about EVERY HORROR MOVIE that Sean has ever watched. Don't worry, it isn't too long of a list. It is a lightning round of discussion about the greatest hits of horror.
