BGTNJeffIs franchise horror dead? Where does that leave us?
#30
Caftan King Wrote: Halloween and Rosemary's Baby are definitely old horror movies which means they don't have yet the qualities of advanced technology we use in film-making. And that results to crappy cinematography, crappy music, crappy lightnings, typical loud sounds followed by a "BOO!" event, ending that suggests a possible sequel and too predictable scenes.

That's why most modern day horror fanatics don't like Rosemary's Baby, The Omen, Halloween or Psycho because it's not a hard-boiled horror movie. Today, modern audiences are pampered with loud noises, a constant soundtrack, blood, gore, boobs and worst of all... a knowing of where the monster or killer came from.
