I haven't read the article either, but by what you posted I'd probably disagree with it. Times change. We have to face it. Major horror films just aren't serious anymore. If anyone has Showtime, I was watching a documentary entitled "Masters of Horror". They interviewed such greats like Tooper, Craven, and Carpenter. Basically they talked about what you're talking about, how horror really isn't horror anymore, and no one takes it serious anymore. Hopefully a new director will come in and bring us back to the "seriousness".
