Just watched Sinners.

It was awful.

1.5+ hours of largely unnecessary back story leadup for maybe 25 minutes of actual vampire survival content. Horror movies aren't supposed to be 2.5 hours long.

    Sinners wasn't a horror movie though. It was a movie that happened to include some horror elements.

    I mean it's a movie about people surviving the night against a vampire attack.

    It's like From Dusk Till Dawn. Sure there's some action and some humor, but it's a horror movie. Sinners is a horror movie, despite having some action and drama.

    I dunno, I hadn't heard of it, looked it up on Google, and it specifically and only says horror. Not a horror comedy or anything. But I haven't seen it so I dunno.

    Movies are trending toward being longer now though, genre be damned. I remember I used to think, damn, movies are too short. And now I find myself more often saying, damn, movies are too long.

    I'm sure that is the official category, because of blood and gore and vampires. But that is only the later part of the movie and the main story is the characters and build up to get there.
