its really nice being a horror fan tbh if only because most of the complaints i see online about Movies These Days just don't really apply to the movies i watch at all
#like oh you're sick of things being edgeless and watered down and family friendly for maximum appeal?#i won't pretend that's not an issue in the rest of the industry but. yeah almost nothing i watch is like that#even teen horror still tries to keep its edge and have some kind of commentary#we also have way more midbudget and lower budget movies like sure there are some tentpoles but its way less common#two of the most anticipated horrors from 2023 so far were indie projects. one was so low budget that it was just pictures of walls.#and our tentpoles are kind of predicated on going bigger and more insane. not toning it down#theyre still usually pretty bad though lol eye contact with halloween ends and scrim 6#but one thing you can't say about them is that they were boring and pandering to fan service#idk its nice enjoying the one genre that the walt disney company wouldnt touch with a 100 ft pole#avpost#now. we do have the problem with cgi taking over but it is to a lesser extent bc most horror directors love practical effects#and we do also have the remake problem. but that goes back to like literally the 1800s#the second horror movie ever made was a remake of the first horror movie ever made and that set the stage for the rest of the genre
