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. |
I'll also check those out. i haven't been paying much attention to the genre for awhile now because I haven't been watching much cable tv/going to see movies and the genre itself has gotten kinda tame.
