i will say an interesting varient on the genre is Suspect Zero.
it delivers beyong the average serial killer movie.
anyway - my initial point wasnt to condemn or condone these movies .. i dont like them in particular myself ... but its a very popular genre that has taken on a life of its own .. propelling the 'genius serial killer' into a monster entity of its own for our times ... at least thats the feeling i get.
time will tell i guess.
as far as origional monsters .. yes i agree phantasm had a unique spin .. and the other was the guy in jeepers creepers ... like the movies or not - he was at least a new bread of critter.
