This fan says Scream Queens was better than American Horror Story; while we can’t quite decide between the two — there are definitely episodes of both that we genuinely love.

VelociPastor was undoubtedly an experience.

This fan brought up a good point; sometimes, it’s hard to accept new things being great when you’re a massive fan of the classics. They say that both can be great.

This opinion comes up a lot in horror — many fans are against remakes for a multitude of reasons. They don’t like new casting choices or think the original film should be touched; it can be hard to reboot a classic, but several fans are usually excited about the prospect. It’s a fine line to tiptoe.

This fan says Jason is dull, and the comment reply showed that it might be one of those bar brawl-starting opinions. Many fans noted that Jason was great simply because the movies were so…slasher-centric.

While this horror idea had many in agreement, some thought that other ‘final girls’ did it better than Sidney. If we had to pick…we think it just might be Sidney for us, too.
