Whats the article for?
Just some I think that were influencial:
The Ring (2002) - The film that interduced the Japanese/Korean/Asian 'style' of horror to manin stream American/European audiences.
Saw/Hostel - Influencial enough to get the media to coin the stupid 'Torture porn' label for.
Haute Tension - I don't think it was as influencial as it should have been but it showed you can still make an exciting and tense slasher with out resorting to the self referential Scream formula.
You can prolly list alot of the finanially successful Remakes as they perpetuate the making of even more remakes...
House of 1000 corpses/Grindhouse/Devils Rejects/Doomsday - Showed us all that it ok to copy and regurgitate old films just as long as you call it a Homage :-)
28 days Later - Personally proof that the 'zombie type' film isn't dead.
There are alot of decent films form the 2000's but I dunno if I'd call them influencial :
The Descent
Shaun of the dead.
Dawn of the Dead Remake
