wheres all the remakes coming from?

What is up with all the franchises being milked to death? Freddy Vs. Jason, What was that, halloween resurection was awful, Most new horror movies are Either Really sucky of a remake that would never live up to the classics they pose as, Chainsaw massacer was okay but still, no comapison to the origional, the amittyville horror remake was crappy.

Why dont these directors and writers come up with something good, even George Remaro is loosing, look at Land of the Dead. What the fuck is happening to our horror movies? We need someone that can lve up to, Vince Price and Wes Craven, someone to step up and make a good horror franchise that has the feel of a classic but not a remake. Damn.

But a very good point and fair question none-the-less.

Money and target audiences (male/13-18) are the main reasons, and also lack of resistance from those who complain but pay their admission prices anyway to fund more and more of these things.

We have the power to stop endless franchises and vapid remakes right here and now - but there are too many of those who won't play ball and boycott 'cos they're too easily pleased...
