I am quite excited for the next 5 years in horror

I've just realized this today, but it seems like producers just might be getting the idea that remakes aren't all the public wants, we may actually be getting some nice followups as opposed to rehashes of horror movies, not to mention some thrilling new ideas as well!
For starters, it seems like a good many sequels are coming: Saw VI, Strangers Part 2, Jeepers Creepers: Cathedral, Puppet Master: Axis of Evil, Demonic Toys 2... all apparantly coming by 2011! Honestly it's pretty nice knowing my generation has a good number of horror franchises to call their own, but most of all I'm glad for the fact that these are followups to some really kickass movies, instead of say, remakes
.
It was when I was looking up info for Saw VI that I realized what some alumni are going to be starring in, most notably the most interesting living Saw character and the least interesting one
.
First of all, though it makes me doubt he will be doing Saw VI after all, seems Cary "Dr. G" Elwes will be starring in two very different, but both scary-sounding horror films: "Psych 9" and "As Good as Dead". On the flip side Mark "Erickson" Rolston is going to be in one called "Taxidermist" (Alongside Leslie Easterbrook, Mother Firefly from The Devil's Rejects).
In addition to that, it seems like there are 2 promising looking psychological-thriller-type horror movies about to be released very soon: A Perfect Getaway and The Collector. They both actually look pretty damn original and well done to boot; pretty much the stuff Untraceable and Amusement SHOULD have been.
So, does this make anyone else's day like it makes mine? On that note is there anything you fellas are looking forward to?

âThe Fright Night remake is a film which taps into the audienceâs deepest rooted fears, such as those of vampires throwing motorcycles at them. I dread the thought of a vampire throwing a refrigerator or a deskjet printer or... Iâd better stop before I give myself nightmaresâ
