HAS ANYONE NOTICED THAT HORROR MOVIES HAVE GOTTEN REALLY BAD RECENTLY?


[+] ballot by Smeegol
created Thu Nov 11, 04

remember 20 years ago we were getting great horror movies like Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, the Shining, the Exorcist, etc, that were filled with suspense and just about made you sh*t yourself! nowadays i havent seen one horror movie that has made me want to hide behind the couch or make me drop some chuds in my pants. all horror movies now only have Gore but no suspense! why is this?

Coz Hollywood has gone Crap
No good Movie Writers
Modern Technology has ruined the suspense
Cheaper/ easier to shock
Bootleg is the only way to ensure better quality
Yeah, just watch the TV and you'll see

COMMENTS:
Too true. It is easy to shock or startle ... a lot tougher to induce actual suspense or horror.

I believe it comes down to money. They cheap bastiches just won't pay for decent writers.

yes... i've noticed that they rely to much on special effects which look too computer generated with no storyline to back them up

you dont need blood and gore to make a good horror movie, you only need suspense!

Not only that, I've noticed that about movies in general.

Preparation_H hit the amnesia patient right on the head! The suspense factor has taken a back seat to the special effects.

I liked the Ring; but you are correct, good horror films are few and far between.

You JUST NOTICED? They're just aiming for our money one weekend at a time, tossing out just enough in the trailers to lure us in. They don't have a clue as to how to do it right, and they don't really CARE.

Horror Movies right there on my TV
Seeing George Bush on the 6 o'clock News
Its got to be a thriller
Its got to be a chiller
Oh yeah
Shocking me right out of my brain

Horror movies can't get much worse than seeing George Bush on the 6 o'clock news
