You'll probably be happy to know that horror films made a huge comeback last year with Conjuring 2, Lights Out, Don't Breath, 10 Cloverfield Lane, and a bunch of others. It's been building up since the release of James Wan's first low-violence flick, Insidious, back in 2010. Essentially after the Saw movies got criticized for being attractive only because of their violent and not any scary horror film qualities, James Wan made Insidious as a bit of a passion project - putting almost no violence in the film, and creating a modern horror cult classic. He continued on with a similar theme, and a much bigger budget for Conjuring, and it was even more successful. I'd recommend watching both franchises, they're very good; feeling both fresh and also timeless. |
Yeah, Insidious turned my partner and I into big horror movies fans. Looking forward to Insidious 4 and The Nun. Personally I'm not a fan of those pseudo horror movies like Get Out or Don't Breathe. If a movie meant to be scary isn't, then it's not a good movie to me. I only watch supernatural or creature-feature horror movies as well, not gore or home invasion or psychological.
