Havent seen "Godsend" yet, but if they kill rebecca romijn, it may be worth it...
Maybe it's just a difference of opinion, but i cant understand someone hating Dawn of the dead (2004) and jeeper creepers, but actually LIKING FvJ.
However, you are dead on with 28 days later, Dog soldiers and the ring. The big thing is, any of the movies you listed, you will find people here that like them, and those that hate them. The general concenus IS that modern horror flicks suck (in general), but the specifics vary greatly.
Here is my take on things.... We need new writers that actually have some imagination.
We need to stop hiring special-effects driven directors that kill out any story that may have existed to get some "cool" effects on screen.
We also need Hollywood to FUCK OFF when it comes to the pg-13 rating. Some people can pull of a good pg-13 (Gore Verbinski made a great horror flick that was only pg-13, the ring, but that is a RARE gem). Horror needs to have the flexibility alloted by an R rating, And i dont just mean that for gratuitous tit scenes or excessive gore.
But i am sick of limp-dick politically correct, predictable bullshit where the lead character yells "Crap" instead of "shit", simply because they wanted to sell ticvkets to the pg-13 crowd....
Fuck middle america.
