I think a problem with the horror genre may be that quality stories/projects like The Changeling (1980), Rosemary's Baby or The Shining are considered risky for the big companies who seem to just churn out follow-up films in franchises like Saw or Paranormal Activity and the like, basic popcorn cinema scare flicks. Independent film makers sometimes make horrors with a little more quality, but there's a lot of ****e coming from that direction too. Overall, I feel like horror movies really lack class these days. They're more likely to contain cheap scares or just be over the top like Human Centipede than actually be moving and engaging with characters you care about.

Definitely worth checking out, I think.
