Hmmm....I've thought about it.

What I'd really like are some vanity license plates that say "LECTER."

Enjoy!

Really, now we have to go here to talk about horror films?

Yeah, I would rather it be like it was before as well. Or atleast keep all of the horror DVD threads on the main forum.

I like the idea of giving Horror it's own sub-forum! WTG guys. It's usually the only posts I'm looking for anyways.

So now we are required to visit multiple forums in order to read about different genres? Is this suppose to be for the users or aid in branding?

More effort and time required.

Let's branch off all discussions in there own forums. Some people just want to read about foreign films or not at all so let's get those off the DVD Talk forum. Same with new releases versus re-releases. How about independent movies versus big budget Hollywood films? Fantasy, sci-fi?

Yes, I'm being facetious but forcing everything horror related to a sub-forum just makes it more time consuming for users to read. Requiring more work for less info is not helpful.

I don't mind it. I may discover something in this subforum that I may have missed otherwise.

It SAVES me work from having to scan through pages of threads looking for the horror ones. Hell, it's only 1 more click.

On the other hand, it'll reduce the amount of traffic in the main forum for those that don't like horror.

edit: Noel, great to see ya back

Terrific idea. A lot of science fiction crosses into the horror genre though, i.e. the Alien films, Carpenter's The Thing and so on. I assume as long as there are horror elements within the film on some level that it's kosher to bring the discussion here?
