Basic Training for the Zombie Apocalypse, April 17, 2011by Danielle (The Wild West) In the "About" section of this game, the author writes: "The inspiration for Divis Mortis comes from my own life. I am rather fearful of a zombie attack, to the point where upon entering rooms I think about how to best barricade them, I make sure to stock up on blunt objects and canned food, and I always am running through scenarios in my head."

It's one of my huge pet peeves in horror in general, because it just flushes the whole tension, dread, and creeping doom down the toilet. It's much more fitting that the characters break down and cry than bust out something funny. (Of course, if your goal is to do a non-serious kind of campy thing, then sure, go for it. Just be obvious about it so that I can avoid that.) Danielle, April 24, 2011 - Reply I can see *nevous* humor working in horror ("Eheheh, that shadow on the wall looks almost like a Cthulu. Heheh. Almost. Right?")...but 99.9% don't do it right. What do you think, then, of movies like TREMORS? Granted, that's a B movie, but it's got humor and horror-tension in equal scoops and it seems to work. AmberShards, April 25, 2011 - Reply I'd probably class that as being in the non-serious-from-the-start camp, but I've only seen Tremors 3, and that one was primarily humorous. Danielle, April 26, 2011 - Reply Ach--Tremors 3 is a different animal altogether than the first two. I recommend them, if'n you have time. They take themselves seriously enough (in parts) and have good enough special effects that I think they're a bit above and beyond a mere "B" horror movie. AmberShards, May 8, 2011 - Reply Ok, cool. I'll check 'em out. Mr. Patient, April 16, 2011 - Reply I think you mean One Eye Open, not Eye Wide Open. Previous | << 1 >> | Next |
