I don't think we ever have to worry about the horror genre going anywhere. People will always be drawn to horror because it speaks to the darkness in themselves and in their lives. And you know, because it's entertaining. But I agree that the whole genre could use a serious boost of creativity. Every now and then I'll find a movie with a really fresh idea, but most are repetitive and predictable. And actually I think every genre struggles with that, so I think it's suffice to say horror isn't going anywhere.
