Now, this may be a little redunant because I'm already doing it, but I'm looking for some feedback regardless.
What's your opinion on crossing genres to make a more dimensional work?
With my current WIP, the theme is the psychological horror and effects on veterans of the current war in Afghanistan. I chose this because many of my friends are infantry vets, and I find the modern veteran absolutely facinating. For a feel for what I'm going for, think the old movie Jacob's Ladder or An Occurance at Owl Creek. Flashbacks, PTSD and the fragility of the mind.
What do you guys think? Good? Bad? Patronizing?
Does crossing genres weaken the original idea?
Fangew berry berry mushhhhh.
