Magpie:
Remember you're talking to a horror movie fan here, so I probably see 
more difference than you do.

But I mean, you know, that it's kind of like a comic book. It's 
splatter rather than something where you're really identifying with 
pain or sadism. Lots of blood, but not the lingering focus on the 
vulnerable flesh of, say, the Hostel movies, or the grossness of Ichi 
the Killer.
