And the Rollcall thread got me thinking about this thing we call Urban Fantasy.
I wonder why some of it isn't called Urban HORROR? Vampires, werewolves, zombies, ghosties, and such, are traditionally MONSTERS, and would traditionally be horror. Frankenstein. Dracula. The Exorcist. The Wolfman. Those were all horror.
Why did someone decide to brand it Fantasy? To me fantasy has other elements in it, elfs, trolls, fairies, dragons, wizards, magic, swordsmen, and things like that.
So to me, Beastmaster II: Through the Portal of Time is a true Urban Fantasy.
