course we need the shitty horror movies as well, thats just what makes all the other movies worth the wait, am i right?
but like someone said earlier im pretty exited to see what 2004 brings, i know i can hardley wait to see bubba hotep, not a horror movie i know but i cant wait to see troy either. i guess im just whining to much but horror has had a slow time the last years, i think il find myself in search of indie horror pretty soon.

I agree with the first poster. It seems as though MOST of the new horror movies that are coming out are not even intended to be horror... more comedy than anything else. Seriously, was anyone even REMOTELY scared by Scream? I Know What You Did Last Summer? Final Destination? These movies are not intended to even be scary, they're intended to make money. It's pathetic. Even in the past, when horror movies were made for the sake of making money, they still at least ATTEMPTED to be frightening. I'm sick of all this new garbage. Even Jeepers Creepers was utter garbage. I'd rather watch bread rise than watch that piece of shit.
I dig the term "nu-horror", because that's exactly how it feels. Not original, not scary, just an amalgam of recycled garbage created for the sole purpose of lining the MPAA's and crew's pocket books.

So what about
..."classic horror...?" I have stated that I thought "The Others" was a really creepy film. It was the same kind of creepy that you might find in Vincent Price's films or maybe even in Hitchcock (The Black cat, for example). So there's also that kind of scary film, though I will admit it's not a visual as say, NoLD.
What if we regressed to the era after Dracula, The Mummy, and Frankenstien, but before, The Birds and Psycho, where it was more about the paranormal and less about gore? (Don't get me wrong, gore is awesome). Early Hitchcock Furthermore, I though that the remakings of both Dracula and the Mummy took away the "horror" of the movie and made them...oh..pretty.
