Is it over?

"Box Office for Horror Movies Is Weak, Verging on Horrible" by Michael Cieply.

I'm not sure anybody enjoyed the resurgence of the horror genre in the past 5-10 years more than me.

And I'm not sure anybody got sicker of it than me. It was great...so great, that everything else had to be exactly the same. It all got derivative, unoriginal, and dull. And it also shifted from plot/fear/suspense to gore.

If it's over, good. Let it die and come back to life when somebody comes along ready to do something fresh.
