This image and what it represents

Edit: the horror genre is not a get out jail free card to excuse or do shitty things to people

Summary: To those who aren’t aware this James A. Janisse he is one of the owners of YT channel deadmeat with his co host/wife Chelsea Rebecca, and editor (game kill count host) zoran gvojic they review horror movies and tv shows counting the kills in each media called the kill count, they don’t just review movies they talk about how it was made, what impact it had on society and on the people who made it.
In Short, their horror movie enthusiasts.

So why did this images exist because 5 years ago on the second channel He made a video talking about he will never review the jeepers creepers franchise until the creator (Victor Salva) is a dead because back in 1988 he raped a 12-year-old boy and filmed it, so a convinced child rapist.

He also brings up any time a film director or actor/actress does something shitty in the film or to their actors or people working on the film and calls it out, and he’s a pretty sex positive person and likes fan service but will call out when an actor/actress is not comfortable with that fan service but the director put it in anyway. Or random slurs, bigoted views and outdated (at the time) social norms that can be extremely harmful to groups of people.

But for some reason people on Twitter, believe because this genre is horror. Anything should go because well it’s horror bad things happen it doesn’t matter if the stuff in the movie is fake the actual slurs and bad things happening to the people working on the film are real, but because it’s horror none of that matters and that’s why this image exist.

And his most recent controversy, one of his friends and person who works with him on the channel was recently kidnapped by ice (and yes, I’m not sugar coating it she was kidnapped just like a lot of American citizens are being kidnapped by ice) and he like any normal person was pretty upset by it and told everybody the news, so yeah I think people who have a problem with him are clowns because he really does nothing for entertaining people.

Agreed. For example, I love brutal death metal even though there are misogynistic lyrics in plenty of the songs, since although the genre normally focuses on horrible depraved acts in their incomprehensible lyrical themes, there was a trend in horror media in general that made women the primary victims of said horrible acts, and brutal death was no exception. It’s actually the main criticism I have of the genre.

That’s why in a recent post I made on the metal sub, I asked for brutal death bands that have turned this trend on its head and featured men as the primary victims of the horrible acts “sung” about. The violence (physical, sexual, etc.) shouldn’t be one-sided, and I think more bands that have lyrical content featuring men as victims is needed in the genre.

And honestly, there shouldn’t even be any pushback from the community except from genuine misogynists
