The thing about horror though is that it's a question of tone. Looads of horror movies play the booba card, to great effect. The silly horniness of Friday the 13th is a vital part of the recipe, for example. What doesn't work is trying to grimdark at the same time. But these people demand both SERIOUS and BOOBA at all times
