“Jaws is a movie about a psychotic shark who kills because he cannot get bitches but inversely he cannot get bitches because he kills; the killing keeps the bitches away.”

This is definitely the plot of Jaws.

I don't know what the deal with the sharks in Jaws 2-4 are but maybe they also have this sexual disfunction gill-deep as well

Love this. Made me rewatch Psycho today, probably for the first time in like ten years. Anthony Perkins is a great creepy hot dork. Great film.

The killer in Scream is named Billy Loomis, and later in Scream 5, his sister's name is Samantha Loomis.

Ah yes! I forgot about that. Been meaning to watch the Scream movies again. Maybe this is the season to do it

I didn’t mind that movie, In a Violent Nature but I guess you can’t call it a slasher anyway

halloween is boundary pushing because of the ending - michael Meyers' heavy breathing over shots of houses indicates to the audience that actually the houses were the psychos the whole time
