I think it really depends on what context its being used in, if your going with the conventions of classic horror say like if you wanted to have a "Psycho" kind of feel to it, monochrome can be used quite well to create an atmosphere, a good example of this is how it can emphasise shadows.
One of my more ambitious projects is a film noir/ gangster film which I will be starting pre-production on in the coming weeks. I have decided that I want to use monochrome because I personally think it would work well...
I suppose its all upto the director and producer what would work best, but I agree, I do not like the feel of "glossy" horror films.
anywayz, take care man :)
