Let Me Entertain You

So as i go and watch movies and plays, the one thing that it seems to not be lacking is entertainment in the way they are supposed to. The comedies make me laugh, the action movies make me want to fight, the heartwarming feel goods make me smile, and even the sad chick flicks get me weepy. They are all doing what they are supposed to except for one genre……horror.
currently horror movies don’t entertain me in the way they should. There are no chills in my spine, prickles on the back of my neck, and that feeling of suspense that make you jump when someone unexpected enters a room. The horror genre has been lacking that for sometime. the last movie i saw that gave me chills was 1408, but both before and after that, horror is lacking its luster. It has become a stomping ground for sequels, remakes, and low budget badly written unheard of DVD in your local video store(or netflix).
Most of the villains who are human in some shape or form, have been turned into comedic roles who just so happen to kill people].When did the great Freddy Krueger become a stand up comedian, and since when did he and Jason decide to be in a movie together. Violent death’s full of gore may be gross and make you wince, but that doesn’t mean they are scary. point in case, SAW I-X(i dont know if there are ten, but it feels like it by now). SAW is gross, and sick, and twisted, but its not horrifying. It doesn’t make you check under your bed, or in every closet, or fear walking across the hall to the bathroom in the middle of the night. It just makes you want to barf, or laugh. The scariest thing about that movie, is that the writers actually thought of those tortures.

i bet they are into S&M
