I really don't think it works all that well for horror movies. I may just still be mad because I didn't know one of the friday the 13th movies was in 3-D when I rented it. The scenes where Jason is stabbing at the screen just slow the movie down WAY too much. I know these are cinematic masterpieces but still it's like trying to climb a wall in the middle of a jog but then you still have to jog he rest of the way. Does that make sense to anyone other than me?
