Talking Views on modern 'horror' films

Hi guys,

Just wanted to ask y'all a quick quezzy. Are any of you out there getting a bit bored of all mainstream crap thats being churned out these days??

I'm a big fan of movies of the horror genre. Particularly movies of the 80s and 90s. But it seems that no new films are being produced that are any good.

Few egs....

Just watched 'the hole' on british television. Quite hyped up. Good start. Decided to stay up last night and watch it so i'm knacnkered today. First hour....quite good.....might be a spooky ending.....and then......bollox......no murder....no madman......no nothing.....complete waste of time.

Last year I watched 'Jeepers Creepers'. Was dubbed...'the scariest movie to come out of america'. First hour......really good......quite scary....bit of a chain saw massacre air to it.....then......special effects made of papier mache....a shite baddy...and crap ending.

Remake of Dawn of Dead...turd. Wrong turn.....turd. Cabin fever....turd.

The list is endless. However, there does seem to be a few 'little gems' cropping up. Good input from the good old British and Japanese horror industries. 28 days later, dog soldiers, ring etc.

Dont know, maybe i'm gettin old. We need a horror film to remember this decade by. We need a bad guy. Thats why i was pleased to see the old freddy vs jason movie. Lots of people thought it was turd but it was a refreshing alternative to the cloned crap films coming out now.

One more thing.....'Godsend' has just come out in the UK....any good or bollox??

Cheers...preacher
