Maybe it has to do with the bad economy in the last few years, and how a lot of us aren't as secure as we used to be. If you're worried about losing your home, your job and your financial security, then maybe a home invasion movie is exactly what will scare you the most. Just a theory...
I don't know if I agree about haunted house movies being popular (I wish!), but I guess you get to see a lot of low budget stuff that never makes it to my corner of the world.
