Good question Avenger, I really dont consider the original TCM to be modern, I mean its a classic right up there with the original black and white horror films. The early slasher films like Friday the 13th and Halloween arent really modern anymore either. I think that since the start of the use of CGI in horror is the break off point. Give me the old school water coloring and tedious make-up effects over CGI anyday. Some of the movies we have been calling modern are going back over 25 years so I think it could go by generation maybe?
