I like both. I prefer the classics but I suppose the reason they stopped doing them like that was that got samey and boring. There's always loads of the oldies I haven't yet to see, but you can't beat it when a really good new one comes out.

And every now and then they throw out an old style one like Ford Coppolla's Dracula/Frakenstein.

Yeah, I love the colours and sets they used. It made everything seem more surreal and spooky. They had that not quite right feel to them.

Was peoples blood a different colour in those days? It seemed very... er... vibrant.

Each had their ups and downs. Sure, I love the classics a helluva lot better than today's releases, but there stil are horrors being released nowadays that will some day be classics (The Devil's Rejects for example). So, it doesn't really matter to me. As long as the horror movei turns out good, then I'm not complaining.

It's sortof a double-edged sword. People seem to like the old movies better. But if they kept making them like that, there wouldn't be anything new.

Personally, I like good movies, regardless of the time frame in which they were made.
