Oh, the original Assault on Precinct 13, the one from 1976 and directed by John Carpenter, is DEFINITELY a horror movie. The remake is a YMMV case, I guess.

Sounds like a standard action movie to me.

It is. I don't know the original, but the 2005 version doesn't really have any horror genre elements I could think of.

Ah. Well, the original is very gruesome and actually horror.

… How, though? Is Kill Bill horror because it’s gorey and handles some brutal topics?

Have you watched the original?

I’ve watched enough other horror, action, and crime movies to just think you’re full of shit unless you can come up with something.

So you haven't watched it, you're just wanking. That's boring.

It's in the style of filming and the framing.

I guess slashers aren't horror either. :(

Let's play a game instead, there's some lazy wank brewing here. *yawn*

They are playing a game over there, but I find the Butts Game even more boring than this wank. :(

Maybe a different game?

Incredibly boring and kind of sad, if it's one coalie responding endlessly to themselves.

Coal in general is kind of sad if it's one coalie responding endlessly to themselves.

What is coal? What is love? What is the universe?

What is life if not life endlessly responding to itself?

True. But one coalie with a butt compulsion is somehow sadder.

_coal is definitely more than one butt compulsion, lol

I've seen it listed under horror, so I guess for some people it is.

I believe you, but it's not really relevant here. I don't think the original one was even in the tagset.

Yes, I know. I've never heard anyone say that about the straightforward-action/crime remake though, hence the comment.

Yes, I know some people think the original is horror (I don't really agree, and neither does JC according to his commentary). But I've never heard anyone say that about the straightforward-action/crime remake, hence my comment.

Sorry for the doublepost, DW keeps timing out and giving me 503 errors.

I'll be honest, I just missed the date when I put that movie in the list. I haven't seen the remake, and I have no opinion on whether it's horror.
