Until you've sat and watched a film in its entirety, you can't possibly know whether you will like it or not. Watching the odd clip of a film, here and there, can only provide you with a glimpse of a particular scene; and will lack the overall feeling, atmosphere or sense of time or location that the full piece of work would provide.

I can tell you for a fact that if you were to watch the odd scene from a film like A Virgin Among the Living Dead, it could not for a moment convey the wonderfully surreal and dreamlike atmosphere of a film that, I would imagine, is loved by most fans of Jess Franco's work.

I imagine that I would hate Snakes on a Plane; but unless I actually watch it, I could never say for certain.
