i think 'Today' should just include the last 3 or maybe 5 years, tops.

Scream is pretty passe now ..
I dont have anything against Ms. Campbell (she was born 30 minutes away from where i am right now) but it's not like she's considering any horror projects now - hasnt for 6 years.

My point was that there really arent ANY decent names in horror anymore.

(well - maybe DeNiro when he feels like embarrasing himself)

nothing but a bunch of unknowns - or TV soap people.

the direction job goes to contracted hacks.

there are very few exceptions - and for some reason they get shit on (Dawn of the Dead remake for example)

Land of the Dead had decent acting .. it was a bit of a letdown for completely different reasons.

All goes towards my point that it's a bitch trying to find a decent horror THESE DAYS - meaning - NOW, because the film industry hasnt taken the genre seriously since the 70's - knowing full well that stupid kids will rent any piece of glossy shit no matter how bad it is (RE2, HOTD)
