So, what are some horror movies out?
Knife, Killer from Hell 3, Johnny the Clown, Boris 6, Chainsaw 2, and Dopamine
Which ones have gotten good reviews from critics?
Horror movies almost never get good reviews from critics. Boris 6 did the worst.
Alright, so scratch that. Do I know anyone who has seen any of them? What did they think?
One liked Knife, 4 liked Killer from Hell 3, 3 liked Johnny the Clown, and two each liked Chainsaw 2 and Dopamine.
So, knife is out. Of the other four, which was scariest based on critic reviews?
Chainsaw 2, Dopamine, and Johnny the Clown (in that order).
What about my friends?
They said Johnny the Clown, Chainsaw 2, and Dopamine (in that order).
Are any of them set up for sequels?
Johnny the Clown 2 and Dopamine 2 are already in production. Chainsaw 3 is expecting a sequel as well.
Do they have good or bad endings (do the good guys win?)
Well, you know Chainsaw ended badly for them. Apparently Dopamine has a happy ending too. Johnny the Clown loses in the end.
Well, I've already seen Chainsaw and liked it, but Dopamine is a new choice. What subgenre of horror is Dopamine?
Psychological horror.
Are there significant differences in ratings between Chainsaw 2 and Dopamine?
No; 67% vs. 54%.
Hm. I think I'll stick with Chainsaw 2, so I can see the sequel, then do Dopamine next time. How's that sound?
Wonderful.
