It's Not You Linda Blair, It's Me

No matter how fanatical someone is about a particular interest, there's usually one dark alley they refuse to walk. When you're a horror fan, that means ignoring either certain films or certain kinds of films. Maybe you just aren't entertained by them, or maybe you find them so disturbing that it's not any fun to watch. In my case, there are two sub-genres that I won't touch with a bloody ten-foot pole. If you like them, great, more power to you. As far as I'm concerned, you can keep them. The first of these is the fad popularly known as torture porn, or gore-nography.
