" and the urge to lock your door when you are alone in the house ;)<BR/><BR/>I love it when writers/directors leave something to the imaganition of their readers/audience.<BR/><BR/>Thought Pan's Labyrinth was briliant.

Once you read many horror novels that are GOOD, you begin to pick up ideas. So- I really think that we choose to write what we like, but that doesn't automatically bad at writing another genre. You should try it! I know the next piece I want to do is going to be another genre besides the thriller/horror area I love to be in. It's a stretch as a writer-challenges us :)Pen Penhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18443147029903410419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399297081057907964.post-12917864216723419252009-03-17T17:20:00.000-05:002009-03-17T17:20:00.000-05:00Yes The Orphanage was FANTASTIC!It was so Unpredic...Yes The Orphanage was FANTASTIC!<BR/>It was so Unpredictable and that made it really creepy.<BR/><BR/>Another good example is The Strangers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399297081057907964.post-32994363837410907252009-03-17T17:08:00.000-05:002009-03-17T17:08:00.000-05:00Hey, some great thoughts!

I should try sometime, but if I do, I'll steer clear of those cheap tricks. Thanks!Michelle D. Argylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09696465137285587646noreply@blogger.com
