American horror films in general have been shitty for years, except for some random horror comedies (Monster High for example), slashers (which is my favorite genre), and some fucked up Troma movies. Japan is where all the good horror is... not the Ring and all that shit but the REAL horror movies from there. I seem to gravitate more towards giallos and 70's-80's Italian gore films though... Dario Argento and Fulci and Martino and D'Amato were amazing in their own ways.
All these nu-horror films are terrible... Hostel, Saw, Turistas, etc. Even the ones that don't FEEL like nu-horror films like the Strangers and Wolf Creek still aren't very good! On the other side of the spectrum, there are a bunch of self-referential horror comedies.. what did I watch recently.. uh.. DANCE OF THE DEAD and somethng called MONSTER PARTY. Which were both tongue and cheek and terrible! Even independant horror is bad! Nowadays, the only new horror I like seems to be coming from Japan or France...
For the record, I have never met a single person in real life who liked Rob Zombie's Halloween. Not that it matters, just sayin'. That really shocks me.
