Wow. I don't know how you can think Young Frankenstein is an insult to horror. It was made with so much affection for Frankenstein and Bride Of Frankenstein.

I'm siding with Neverending and Newb on this one. I really don't think horror comedies or spoofs affect the horror genre at all. It's a sub genre. In all these years, it hasn't taken the straightforward horror away from us.

The thing that really ticks me off is when a horror film is remade with contempt for the original. The Wicker Man for example.
