If you still think horror movies like the 1979 ‘Amityville Horror’ still has the same effect, don’t bother. Scrapped that one about 45 minutes after starting.
A true horror movie must contain tangible things to fear. Something identifiable, yet with a fuzzy background. It loses meaning if you tell the audience right up front about how a pair of parents and their 4 children were killed and then mysterious stuff starts happening in their house.
Dawn of the Dead was not as bad. Yep, you have dead people trying to take a good chomp outta you, but why? What’s causing the disaster? Is there any hope for mankind? These kind of questions keep you going.
On the other hand, maybe older movies simply didn’t have the quality of current day ones. 😛
Or I just like undead zombies.
