Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public.

Anyone remember Jeffrey Dahmer? Different generation, no Twilight reference, no nothing, except a couple of sick internet jokes. The Queen of Wonderland has managed to strike again. Reality is really going to be a shock to this generation when its turn comes.

I have to say, I’m rarely if ever truly terrified of modern horror. Invasion of The Body Snatchers and Bram Stocker’s Dracula did scare me, but modern attempts at horror are clumsy and seem to try and prey on some basic fear instinct, unlike unleashing the viewer’s own imagination upon them like some of the new Doctor Who episodes written by Steven Moffat, in particular ‘Blink’ and ‘Silence In The Library.’ Horror, as I understand it, is derived more from silence and passivity than a cannibal holocaust. I’ve seen deranged bullsh*t like Mirrors and Human Centipede (the perennial millennial snuff flick) and I can freely say that Old Yeller scared me more, if only because of my severe dog phobia.

To critique the solipsistic tendencies of the Millennial generation as well as protest the decadence of contemporary America, one is generally required to cherish a hyperbolic opinion of traditional America.

America has never been as demure and noble as popular opinion would have you believe. What’s more, America would have accomplished nothing apart from a smattering of legitimately gifted individuals.

Also, this sort of anomic behavior is hardly new. These days it’s saturation media + electrons moving at the speed-of-light = contagion. On the other hand, when the EBT cards stop working and the Golden Horde erupts from the cities, it really will be a Zombie Apocalypse.
