      Another tidbit, it is also equally true the same things can cause both comedy and horror to fail. Talking down and treat the audience as stupid. Relying heavy-handedly on gross or shock value. Sex; explicit, graphic sexual content. A general sense of mean spiritedness and lack of awareness. You see these other genres as well but more prominently in Comedy And Horror.

    Both great actors but Peter Lorre is definitely the true master of film craft. “M” was a tour de force!

    This looks like my kind of ridiculous chaos. I've watched plenty of their movies but never these.
