What's happened to horror.

[Masterman]

I've been watching alot of horror movies back from the 70's-80's recently and ive decided to make a thread. My reason for this?, horror movies of today suck... And that's putting it nicely. Horror movies today just don't seem to grasp the concept of what is actually scary, they re-ly on loud noises, alot of gore and hot girls to try and pull us in, which just doesn't work. I've been watching over a few horror classics lately and I just can't understand why horror movies of today just don't work. We have had re-makes of horror classics, we have had some new and original movies, and we have had movies similar to those we love, yet none have worked. Maybe this is because ime only young, most horror classics were already released before I was born, so that old feeling is there with them, I think most things that look old are more creepy and scary. Maybe it's mondern day horror movies are going about things completely the wrong way. Or maybe it's just me, and all you guys love what's around today :). As most of you have probably seen i started my top 100 countdown recently, so for over a month I was re-watching alot of movies, some of which were horror movies from now and back then, thats where i got the idea of this thread.

Ime going to look back at some movies now, movies that are horror classics. These movies are what you would call scary, there movies that make you cover you eyes. These films have had a lasting impression on me, there films that still scare me to this very day.

Ime going to start with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 1+2. I'll start by saying... Part 1 is a masterpiece in horror, it's scares the living Sh*t out of me. This movie captures every tiny detail, and it's every little detail that makes these old movies terrifying. The cast, the location, the big dozy chainsaw guy, his sickening family, the dialogue, facial expressions, noises and sounds, everything comes together excellent. The scene at the end of this movie, where there all sitting down for there Sunday lunch is sickening. The screams out of the girl are even scary, tho they are abit annoying. This is a movie I mentioned before that has had a remake and didn't work. They stuck to a similar route with the movie, they stuck to the same sickening scenes, yet it didn't work. Why?. The reason is they just didn't capture how sick That family was, they didn't make the dopey chainsaw guy anywhere near as frightening as the original did. All those tiny details that made the first movie so terrifying where missing. Part 1 is probably one of my favourite horror movies ever, I've seen it a good few times now and everytime it's scared the crap out of me, it's disgusted me, it's shocked me, it's done everything a horror movie should do and more.

Moving on now to part 2. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre part 2 is actually one of my favourite Dennis Hopper movies, I just have to note how great he is in this movie before I move on. Moving on, this movie in my eyes is very underated, not only is it rare to find a great horror movie, but to find one with a great sequel.... It's un-heard off. Part 2 captures everything that made the first movie great, the family is as sickening as ever, dopey chainsaw guy is as dopier as ever, and there's a little more. Part 2 has one of the most disturbing horror scenes ever, if you have ever watched this movie then you will know exactly what ime referring to. The scene in the Radio station!!. This scene in the movie makes my skin crawl, I hide behind my hands, I cringe, it's really that bad. They beat a guys head in with a hammer, but they don't do it like they do nowadays, no!. The camera doesn't turn away, we don't just see a splat of blood... Nope, we see the lot. Part 2 is sickening, it makes the Saw series looking like a Disney film.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a true horror film. Everybody will of heard of this movie, you can go to a fancy dress party and someone will be dressed up with a chainsaw. You can walk into a toy shop and buy merchandise of the film. This movies is iconic in horror history, and maybe horror movies of today just can't match what's already been done, maybe the bar is set just to high.

http://horrornews.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Texas-Chainsaw-Massacre-Part-2-1986-movie-2.jpg

Ime going to move on now to a movie that gave me many sleepness nights as a child, many sleepless nights as an adult aswell if ime honest. A Nightmare On Elm Street, defines the word scary. If you look the word scary up in a dictionary you will find this movie. Now this movie is very very clever. Scary movies scare us the most when it's over, when are mind starts playing tricks on us, when were trying to sleep, or where alone in the dark. Now what this movie did was create one of the most frightening characters ever, and then they went and made a story around him only coming while we're asleep. Now this to me is clever, it's amazing how the concept works because after watching this movie I've had Freddy visit me in my dreams...don't worry I beat the S*** out of him because ime hard in my dreams, but never the less this is a movie that nothing has been able to touch, including another failed remake.

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-CyF-fTsdmqQ/T85893Vxi_I/AAAAAAAAA4w/4PgaVfsgZI0/s1600/Nightmare-Elm-Street_l.jpg

Now Freddy is probably one of the greatest movie characters ever, not just in horror. If you were to go to that fancy dress party that the chainsaw guy was at, you would see someone dressed as Freddy. He would probably be talking to someone dressed as Michael Myers, with Jason throwing some shapes on the dance floor. Knowhere at this party would someone be dressed as Saw, or any other horror movie characters from today. Now this shows that it's not just modern day horrors that suck, it's also the characters. No one is frightening or memorable enough for anyone to even care.

Other movies that I love from the past are movies like, Candyman, Halloween, Friday The 13th, Hellraiser, I.T, The Omen. There is actually a list of fantastic horror movies aslong as the post, but nothing grest has come over the past 15- 20 years. All the movies above are original, they all have there iconic scenes and characters, and are all different from anything that is around today. So why don't horror movies work today?. Is it because we live in a world were nothing shocks us anymore, are we not afraid of anything anymore. Or are people just born with bigger balls now?. I think the real reason is the past can't be beaten, everything has been done so there is nothing really original left. I also think nothing shocks any of us anymore in the world we live in.

This is the first time I have wrote anything like this so give me a break:). Hope you have enjoyed the read.

[gandalf26]

Corporate 3D Hollywood happened.

Everything must be rated 12A now, no gore no blood or if it's an 18 rated film then it's all about gore and visual shocks over any kind of story.

[BlueLion]

The more good movies I watch, the more I realize how unimportant a genre horror really is. For me, at least.

[Nausicaä]

None of those films you mentioned scared me and I saw them back in the 90s but then no films really scare me now either, films from the 00s. I can be disturbed by a film(Martyrs for example) but not scared.

Some are creepy but nothing has ever really scared me. It depends on the person, I know people who were freaked out by something like Insidious and that's a recent film.

Horror films might not be scary now to some but you can still have a very good horror film that isn't scary. Horror films don't have to be scary to be good.


I also think nothing shocks any of us anymore in the world we live in.

Real life still shocks me. Horror and violent films haven't changed how I feel about the world - I still get shocked, disgusted and sad at what happens in the world.

To be honest, if you think films have numbed you to real life and you are not shocked or react in a normal way to anything now then you need help. :yup:

[Daniel M]

I'm kind of the same in that very rarely does a horror film scare me, in fact I wouldn't say any films have. I think the problem is, and what MM tries to get at in the first post is they use cheap effects for jumps that just don't feel real. If I think of some of my favourite horror films, The Shining, The Exorcist, Psycho and Rosemary's Baby, it's all horror that's built up over a period of time and developed (even The Birds), we know there's something dark and dangerous there and the film makers let it develop respectfully. Another one of my favourites that I only watched recently is The Thing, whilst the whole think wasn't scary it was another great atmosphere film where the horror is developed, and like a good horror it had one scene that I specifically remember made me jump - the blood scene.

I hate films like Paranormal Activity, how people find these scary I do not know, obviously it's fantastic if you're the creator of it, but these are in no way good or remotely scary films for me. Nausicaa mentions Insidious, I watched that last year and whilst I didn't hate it it didn't scare me either, but it was a bit creepy, yes.

And I wouldn't agree that the horror genre is unimportant, it's one of the most interesting genres there is, there's tons of films, and each director attempts to achieve something different. I see people like Nausicaa posting all their latest horror films and a lot I haven't heard of, then I see people like TokeZa compiling a massive list of horror films, these films make me want to watch more films and discover this genre even more. Just like action films, sure they might not be the greatest pieces of art made, but it can be great to sit down late at night and watch a good old horror film.

You mention nothing good has been made in the last twenty years, what about the Scream films? Even though the last two weren't as strong as the first two for me, I love the first one, a fantastic mix of brutal gory violence and great comedy, definitely a few jumpy moments when I first watched it. Then last year there was The Cabin in the Woods which I thought was real good fresh fun.

Then there's a handful of films that aren't strictly horror films for me but are fantastic homages to the genre, I'm talking about last year's Frankenweenie (and ParaNorman, even)and the great Shaun of the Dead. I haven't seen many films so I can't talk about loads of great modern horrors, but I know a lot of people like Peter Jackson's horror films, his famous one is Brain Dead (I think that's what it's called), which is meant to be extremely gory.

To be honest, if you think films have numbed you to real life and you are not shocked or react in a normal way to anything now then you need help. :yup:

I think what the poster is trying to say is more of the opposite, that today's society more conditioned to violence, horror, and whilst we're talking about it even sex. Nowadays most 12 year olds have probably seen a handful of 18 rated horror films, and violence no longer has such a shocking effect, it's like Taxi Driver, Mark mentioned the other day when he first saw it he didn't like the violence and saw the ending as too extreme but now he sees it as more commonplace and has grown to like the film.

No!. The other way around. Ime saying has the real world numbed us all to things like horror movies.

[Mr Minio]

Horror directors have to finally learn that the most horrifying is what's unseen, which means that the continuous suspense and close presence of shadows lurking around is way more scary, or at least atmospheric, than a guy wearing a costume of pedo-mosquito pollinating defenseless girls.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was a great horror, even though it features a guy wearing a leather mask. However, one should pay attention to the slow introduction of Leatherface. The first apperance SPOILER when he bashes a guy's head with a sledgehammer and then quickly disappears behind the door (elevator door?) is pretty powerful and thus the viewer feels like it is his head being crushed by the hammer. I could literally feel the heaviness of that tool. Later, when he's running around with a chainsaw it's not as great, but when the whole family is introduced the movie once again starts to be pretty disturbing and sicknening not even incorporating gore or kinky scenes. SPOILER

[teeter_g]

I think that, as a society, we have become apathetic. So accustomed to seeing all the horrors in the world on the news and just accepting that as normal that horror movies don't seem all that scary. Also, we've seen most things as far as that genre goes so we have become savvy in that area and are prepared for it before it starts.

[Masterman]

I agree. Modern horror movies rely on the shock moments, the loud jumpy moments. Example: girl hears a noise under her bed, she bends down to look, (we all know nothing will be under the bed, we know when she looks back up it will be there). Moments like that we expect, yet were in the cinema and the noise is so loud of a scream that it still makes us jump.

[the samoan lawyer]

Im with Nausicaa on this one. Ive never really been 'scared' watching a film. However, there are films that i find disturbing which to me is maybe the closest thing to being scared. eg. i find the like of Antichrist, Requiem for a Dream and Irreversible make much more of an impact that most 'horror' films. Although i do still love watching them all.

Cant beat a bit of mindf##k though.

[earlsmoviepicks]

It seems like torture-porn now passes as horror. I like the old, slow-moving creepy ones like Phantasm

[Nausicaä]

No!. The other way around. Ime saying has the real world numbed us all to things like horror movies.

Sorry, thought that's what you meant when you said this: I also think nothing shocks any of us anymore in the world we live in.

[teeter_g]

Yes, the real world has numbed us. It has, sadly, numbed us to a lot more things than horror movies. There is so much that is acceptable now that wouldn't have been in the past. It's unreal.

[edarsenal]

horror of today is very lacking with some exceptions (already mentioned by daniel) and i do dread watching new horror movies. Asian horror is VERY good to watch and get scared by.

[The Rodent]

earlsmoviepicks has hit it on the head...

Modern Horror is Torture Porn...

The 70s and 80s gave us slashers and serial killer films like Elm Street and Halloween, Friday The 13th, The Fog... plus a few creature feature horrors like Jaws, Critters, Alien franchise, Gremlins, The Thing and so on.

These days, it's all Human Centipedes and Hostels, and other films like Wolf Creek, the Saw franchise and Final Destination films... Torture Porn.


The only recent slasher/psycho film I can think of is Jeepers Creepers...

I loved that film, yet it didn't seem to make much impact with audiences... the sequel was rubbish though.

Other recent films are just remakes or sequels that milk the franchise of the old classics... like Halloween (H20: Halloween 20 Years On), Elm Street and Friday The 13th or even Freddy Vs Jason and Jason In Space etc... and they haven't faired well either.
It seems Slashers and Psychos chasing people through haunted houses are out... Torture Porn is the in thing these days.

Torture Porn also needs no real coherent story either... a bloke decides to torture people... that's it, that's the screenplay. Nice and cheap, now get on with filming it and make money from audiences who don't know any better.

[The Gunslinger45]

Torture porn is the in form of horror. Though I really do not count the first two Saw movies as part of it. At least the first two had a very good villain and plenty of twists. It was gory, but it was interesting, and a hell of a lot better then Hostel, which was awful, and quite literally torture porn! I cannot speak for the sequels as I stopped watching after three.

[Used Future]

I disagree that modern horror is all torture porn and little else. That's a sub-genre that gets banded about a lot (I do it myself) but there are still lots of creature features, occult, and psychological horror flicks being made. What it often boils down to is public imagination and the desire to look beyond what is put in front of us.

I do however, think a lot of modern horror is more extreme now than it's ever been. There's been a 70's grindhouse style revival of envelope pushing films, and I think that it's as much down to the current political climate as it is the rate of inflation which has priced many low budget horror film makers out of shooting a credible 'effects' based movie. It's also been well documented that many of the American independents of the 70's were politically minded, and the extreme horror movies of the period were a reflection of the Vietnam war, post Watergate era. Whilst the more colourful 80's effects based splatter films were a reflection of Regan era boom time excess.

Skip forward to the noughties and once again American (and this time many other) filmmakers find their nations in an unwinnable war on an even more terrifying scale, whilst facing the financial ruin of a double dip recession. I don't think it's a coincidence horror films have redeveloped such a cynical mean streak. France (a country producing some of the most extreme horror films) may appear to be an exception as the government is opposed to the war. But they have always been a very militant country politically, and have their own problems with Middle Eastern terrorism as a result of their zero tolerance policy on the hijab (to name but one example), not to mention the global recession.

That leaves the issue of overall quality. Is the ratio of crap to classic horror films worse now than it was back in the 70's and 80's? Slightly yes. But I'd put that down to a more knowing 'I've seen it all and nothing scares me' video game weened audience; said financial inflation which has resulted in low budget horror films with piss poor CGI effects, and horror nostalgics (myself a prime offender) constantly whining about the good old days and how they don't make em' like that anymore. It's just not possible to make the same kinds of low budget effects movies they made back in the 70's and 80's on a shoestring now. It would cost too much. Hence more slashers, and people tied to chairs having barbed wire for breakfast.

The bottom line though. I think it's too early to say horror is finished, or not as good as it was. I prefer the old movies yes, but that's no doubt down to a subconscious desire to recapture my youth or something. Back then I remember my mum moaning about how sick Cronenberg's The Fly was, and how much more fun horror films were when she was young. Only time will tell on this decade, but I think it shaping up to be a classic whether I'm a fan or not.

[TheUsualSuspect]

Why do I love the horror genre? Other than the blood and guts, the heart pounding scares and the sometimes cheese factor that accompanies them, it has to be the dozens of subgenres that come with it. Look to every other genre, be it comedy, action, science fiction, or western, none of them come close to the amount of subgenres my beloved horror films have. With every decade comes a new wave of what’s popular within the horror genre. What’s popular right now? It’s really a toss up between zombies (The Walking Dead, Resident Evil series, upcoming World War Z), vampires (True Blood, Daybreakers, ugh… Twilight) and the relatively new craze of found footage films (Paranormal Activity, [REC], The Last Exorcism). So is this a good thing, or a bad thing?

Well, a bit of both of course. Let’s take a look at the slasher films we’ve come to know and love. We all know that Psycho is a film that many slasher films strive to be and this film is looked to as the “original” slasher motif, which is a point that can be argued—but I’m not here to do that. Instead 1974’s Black Christmas and 1979’s Halloween, both which have been remade horribly, stand as the blue map of how to craft a slasher picture. Young good-looking girls, be they babysitters or sorority sisters, who get hacked and slashed by a crazed killer, whom we rarely see. Usually the killer will use a signature weapon (chainsaw, knife glove, machete, etc) to mow down the sex-crazed youngsters and by the end of it, only one survives, usually the lead female. This formula has been used for decades; literally, we still get this exact formula today. 70’s was Michael, 80’s was Freddy/Jason and 90’s became Ghostface because Craven re-invented the slasher picture by making it self-referential. Why are thee films successful? People like cheering for the killer, I tell you.

The three most iconic faces of horror, in my opinion of course, are Freddy, Michael and Jason. These guys both helped and destroyed the genre. Each character has spawned several sequels and no one goes back for the kids. The one constant throughout each is the deranged killer. They made so many sequels that they had to send one of them to space. Fast forward to today, all three have been remade, but do people seem to care? Doesn’t really look like it; it seems people want to be scared by the supernatural these days more than by human-like monsters, and with good reason.

The current trend that is in right now has to be the found footage genre, which isn’t all that new. The horror genre goes in circles because we got found footage back in 1980 with Cannibal Holocaust, which inspired The Blair Witch Project in 1999. Now we have the [REC] and Paranormal Activity franchises. The latter has taken over from Saw as the must see Halloween film. The Saw series lasted for 7 films, with the final being in the third dimension, yuck. We are only on number four with Paranormal, but who knows…they are cheap enough to make and earn millions of dollars. There is still milk in that cow and there are still people who want to milk it.

When you compare a film like Paranormal Activity to something like Friday the 13th, it’s easy to see the differences, the main one being subtlety. PA worked because it was low budget, it felt real and the effects were actually effective. It wasn’t something new; it was just something that caught on like wild fire. Much like Blair Witch before it, Paranormal Activity had an amazing viral marketing campaign creating demand to see it. The film was so low budget that the whole thing took place in the director’s own house. I applaud the filmmaker for having the film as scary as it was and that it was a success. Did the success of this film mean that Hollywood was willing to take chances are independent horror? No, the exact opposite; they took the idea and made it their own. The found footage/home video style is rampant in Hollywood, breaking into other genres like sci-fi (Cloverfield) and even action (End of Watch).

What do people want from horror these days? Do they want the serial killer slowly stalking their good-looking teenage victims? Or do they want the low budget spook story? If box office were the only factor, than the answer would most likely be the latter. But if history tells us anything, it’s not to count those slashers out too soon. As I mentioned before, everything circles around in horror. Ask any horror fan (true horror fan) what their favorite horror movies are, chance are one of those classic slasher films will be on the list. For every good horror film, there are three bad ones. Why? Well, for one thing the horror is extremely popular and often inexpensive to produce, and if you’re looking to break into the industry, the horror genre is the perfect way. Just ask Sam Raimi, Peter Jackson, Francis Ford Coppola or even Steven Spielberg.

What’s in store for the future of horror films? Well, I say look back to what we’ve already seen. Thanks to Twilight, which is not horror, vampires have made big comeback; True Blood, which is more so, has helped. Thanks to The Walking Dead, zombies are a part of our current pop culture. Thanks to Blair Witch, found footage remains very big. Whatever the next trend in horror is, we’ve already seen it. Hopefully there will be a good enough spin on it to make it enjoyable and when I say spin, I don’t mean setting the film somewhere in space…..or, as in a certain Leprechaun’s case, “the hood.”

[mark f]

The next trend should then be black-and-white psychological/supernatural thrillers. :)

I'd be down.

[Deadite]

Too much CGI.

[JoeHorrorFanatic]

There have been some horror movies paying homage to the classics recently, such as House of the Devil and The Pact. If they do eventually start making new horror films in b&w, I'd be more than happy to see that.
On the other hand, new b&w horror could end up being overdone just like found footage/documentary style films, but hopefully there will be some good ones before everyone gets sick and tired of the trend.

[thethirstymonkeys]

Asian horror is VERY good to watch and get scared by.

Interesting you mention that. I watched an Asian horror film a few months ago, and loved it. Most of today are lacking, so it makes sense to expand the sources to pick from. I'm def. going to check out some more of these foreign films.

I'd recommend Jigoku, The Eye, and 3 Extremes for the creepy stuff :)
Also, if you're into funny B movies, you should check out Meatball Machine, Tokyo Gore Police, and Mutant Girls Squad.
Watch Thirst, too - not scary, just a damn good film.

Is horror making a comeback? Split, Get Out, It Follows are a few gems of recent years (two from this year).

Do you like Trick 'r Treat Suspect? For some reason i think that's your sort of film.

Behind The Mask is amazing, everyone should watch it.

Let The Right One In, The Descent, Ginger Snaps, House of the Devil, etc.

Pretty solid Horror Century so far IMO.

I've seen it twice and really love it but there's one part i can't get on board with for some reason.

[Mr_TagoMago]

I dont like saying things like all new movies are crap, but all new horror is crap.

[Siddon]

1. It's moved to TV, some of the best horror is now on TV from Walking Dead, Black Mirror, Bates Motel, and Hannibal.

2. The concept is the new star, Lights Out, It Follows, It Comes At Night, Get Out, Don't Breathe, Split, Babadook... the main point of horror is to set your world and sell your concept.

3. Quality control and even improvement with sequels, Ouija and Anabelle were two films that weren't that great but both films sequels improved dramatically.

They should take notes from The Thing.

I think horror's not bad at the moment, actually. There's lots of crap, but that's the same thing for any genre, but there's been lots of good horrors in the 2010s.
Now comedy...

[rambond]

hollywood concentrating more on series rather than making movies as before, the whole quality of action movies has been down aswell for a long time, but the horror genre i guess we ve had some decent flicks since the turn of the millenium, but yeah since 2010 the horror genre has been kind of inexistent if not for a couple of good films like insidious chapter 1 and a couple of other spine tingling horror thrillers of late.
