I love everything about it. I’m more knowledgeable than your casual fan because I actually make movies and understand the behind the scenes stuff you don’t see and know how the effects were pulled off etc so i can speak about them and whether they’re done well or not. It’s way more to me than just what’s seen on screen within the movie, I can appreciate the technical brilliance that goes into it a lot more than your average horror fan looking for jump scares could. That’s what I love.

But you couldn’t do any of that in a corner of film that wouldn’t creep out 98% of people that come across your involvement in it? There are lots of indie film groups that don’t depict knife dildos being used. There are even horror film groups that don’t go that far. It’s kind of too convenient to call gore porn horror just because it is boxed and shipped as that.
There seriously isn’t an argument for continuing it. It’s clearly done more bad than good to you now. I’m not trying to hate on you like the hecklers are making it seem. Just saying man, you can’t possibly think it’s a good look to be involved in it. If you do maybe you’re just from a real out there upbringing lol. They fired you because of the content though, not the actions.
