EF 14 Not-so-Horror-Con?
« on: 07.01.2008, 12:06:19 »
Hey there! I was browsing through the already finished parts of the EF homepage (shush, you people should update all the EF 13s to 14s ;) ) and I am a bit confused now.

I thought EF 14 was supposed to become a mainly Horror themed con, while "From Dusk till Dawn" was merely a ... subtitle kind of thing. Now I read in the Art Contest Section that "FDTD" seems to be the main theme, (classical) horror movies coming on third place only. If that's the case I'd confess it would make me unhappy. :/  It would narrow down the possibilities and ideas drastically to the movie and George Clooney lookalikes. While it surely contains horror elements its more an action-thriller thingy.

Horror as such would allow everybody more freedom and it would surely made it easier to decorate the con side in an appropriate way. Unless you guys really want to re-build the TittyTwister.

Have I got something wrong here? Please help.

Hear hear, I love all manner of horror movies, especially the old style hammer horror variety. Be nice to see all sorts of horror genres and types represented, Im really excited about this as the con theme if its open and expansive as im sure it is.

Rar!

The list is not weighted. All horror-related stuff is welcome :)

I just chose a stricter wording, because when I wrote "interpret it as you like" last year, we got contributions that interpreted "the unlucky 13" not having ANYTHING to do with the overall casino theme ... which was not what we were looking for.

So this time I wanted to make sure, that it when we say "from dusk till dawn", we are NOT looking for pictures of beautiful night skies and sunsets, but that it really WAS the movie which inspired us to choose the theme.

But as I said, it is NOT limited to the movie.

The hotel might've loved us..But the citizens in the town downunder...

They'll hear howls..laughter..weird sounds...They'll pick up their pitchforks and torches and hunt is down one by one!

A real horror-movie!

No, they won't. They love us. We bring money to them. Why should the hunt us? Because of the fake fur? No way.
