Aspies For Freedom

The films chronicling the life, death and deeds of Freddy K. & Jason V. have one drawback. The 2 are unstoppable, essentially unkillable monsters. I realized this after watching the one in which Freddy & Jason share the screen.

These plotlines are unresolvable if the villains can't be killed. And these well-worn franchises can't simply lurch on further into the 21st century. Maybe one of the teenage survivors should somehow become a dream-killer. A successor-of-sorts.

Did anyone see CANDYMAN? Scared the crap out of me. Such beautiful choir & piano music as the score. Great story. Unbelievable amount of gore. The visuals are truly awful but kind of beautiful in their own way. If Candyman was destroyed in the 1st film, how did he reappear for the sequel?

Maybe he had an evil twin?

Or he was cloned?

How the hell do you clonse a ghost?

I'm sure it can be done, in some way.

My main peeve with villains is that the best ones get killed off, and the most generic get to stay. -.-

Well, as far as I'm concerned - when a villain is killed they should jolly well stay dead! But I'd also hope that the more boring ones were killed off first.

DNA from the bones :p dunno

My philosophy on why villians don't stay dead (aside from the actual reason - to make more money out of them!) is because they're not villians at all. These "monsters" - Freddy Krueger, Jason, Candyman, et al. - are energies. And we know that energy cannot be destroyed.

By the way...I'm a huge horror movie buff. Love the beauty of the Candyman movies (at least the 1st two. Didn't care for the 3rd). If you want beauty check out the first couple Hellraiser movies. Even the dialogue is poetry. And if you're really into the visual aspect of a horror movie definately check out some Italian directors, like Lucio Fulci (he passed away in '96 sadly).

Agreed.
