May we see something other than cliche?

Isn't the very challenge rather cliche? Horror's most normal usage around here is a film and fiction gendre that has taken cliche to an almost purely self contained universe.

If the challenge had been terror, fear, fright, alarm, panic or any other similar word I would agree, but horror was asking for cliches, and sometimes you have to sit back and enjoy the B movies.

Hate to agree with you but I do. Let me rephrase, "Too much is never enough!"

it is that horror has become camp. formerly (and correctly) horror had a sting.

Mine is determinedly NOT cliche, and more in the line of personal terror than common horror, and it is getting hammered for that reason :-)

I should take a photo of the sunburn and resulting blisters I have from taking my photo. Sometimes I wish I was still a kid whose mom stopped them on the way out the door with sunscreen. "But mommmmm, I'm only going out to take a couple photos!" . . . 45 min later, toast.

Uhhhmmmm...no. I vote pretty fairly, 5-8 is my usual voting range. Occasionally I will give a 4, but I very, very, VERY rarely give out anything less than that.

I think Uncle Ray was hinting that the low vote was his. You know how riled up he gets after one of those US-centric challenges are announced.

Yeah, I do...and you're right it probably was Unca Raymee apologizing for lowballing me. Okay, you can change it to a 10 now! I sure could use it! :-)

Current Stats for Horror

Submissions: 59
Votes Cast: 3,973 <--------------Liquid in Motion has 4,528
Comments Made: 140 <--------------Liquid in Motion has 252
Participants: 108 <--------------Liquid in Motion has 121

Yes, I know it has more entrants than this challenge, but point is very few votes are in.

It would be nice if it got a total vote count akin to Contre-jour IV or Historic Landmark.
