What Happened To The Movies?
I want to know what happened to the horror movies ? call me old or behind the times,but i just watched the new nightmare on elm street,and... well all i can say is boo!hiss! boo! i watched the original and Freddy was not a pedophile,he was a child murder,they jumped and reached way out of the original story and made it something not nightmarish just to reality based (certainly not why i go to a movie theater).the idea is to prey on the fantastical horror things that could never happen but scare you anyway.the masters of horror Stephen King ,Clive Barker,Wes Craven,John Carpenter,Romero.now these guys knew how to take you to a point of sheer horror slowly boiling your scenes before scaring the snot out of you. they could take a glance a smile and make you wish you really could run from the theater screaming.and adding a sick humor that opened your brain and twisted it ,without the shock and awe that the current junk seems to dole out all up front .There's nothing left to the imagination,and any good horror writer or film maker knows its the things you don't see happening that scare you the most because our imaginations are the best of our fright centers.can someone please explain what happened. I'm sad that the new movies are soooo not so scary.:eek:
