Happy VD!

I entered two stories into another contest. The winners get their stories featured as a podcast/radio show type thing in a video game, a copy of the video game, and a copy of the voice over person reading your story.
I sent two, but I like one way more than the other. I still don't expect either one to be picked, but I entered! and now I'm panicking.
Also, I found out about the contest two days before the deadline, but I managed to write two half-way decent stories in two days

Of the2010s? Potentially top 20 but it’s not been my favourite decade. So my opinion really shouldn’t count.
what is this "shouldn't count" stuff? pfft. i'm not trying to shame you or change your opinion of the movie. you're allowed to like it better than i do.
I’ve been notoriously off mainstream horror for this decade. Only really jumped back in for this years halloween challenge. So my opinion is pretty null and void in that sense
because you've seen mainstream horror and didn't care for it, or because you just assumed it was all garbage and passed on it? if it's the former, then that is completely valid.

Half and half. I wasn’t blown away by ones I saw. But I avoided by default a lot of the possession and child-related horror films.

most of my favorites, off of the top of my head, are not about possession, and aren't really child related.

That’d be my type of list too. Loving the likes of Train To Busan, It, I Saw The Devil etc. others not so much.

I Saw The Devil and Train to Busan is right at the top of 2010's for me.

I'd go I saw the Devil and Let Me In as my top two, probably.
I really want to put Cabin in the Woods up there. I still love it, but the more I think about it, the more I *hate* that they made Hemsworth's death a complete throw away because of an unnecessary scene early on. Remove that one scene and it's easily my favorite of recent releases.

This discussion begs for a top ten from the 2010's thread

also, i'm starting to see the shape of water show up on horror lists. (particularly valentine-y related lists) is it really horror?

Happy VD to anybody affected by it.
