My mom is a kind of a normie. She hasn't seen Halloween Kills, but word of mouth has her hating it because of the gore. I showed it to my nephew and then I showed him the new TCM and she went rambling on about she doesn't understand why we like to watch that kind of thing. She doesn't hate horror in general, but she hates the graphic stuff.

I find it hard to trust someone if they can't appreciate graphic violence. Those people weird me out.

LOL, Rob Zombie inspired him to do something with his life. TDR isn't too bad by our standards, but it is pretty intense for something that was mainstream. Both Ho1000C and TDR were among my early horror endeavors and I found both pretty gross when I first saw them. Now, they're like comfort movies to me.
