Yep the 70s was the golden era for not just horror but movies in general
the problem with horror movies today is they rely on remakes.. first person view cheap budget movies... or just relying on false jump scares, (by that I mean music goes tense then oh everything is all good then wait for it.... BANG!) then it;s over done over and over and over again. it's fake a jump scare has to have a purpose like Carries at the end.
The only thing coming close that is good is the Haunting of Hill house first season anyway that is good horror today that is original
There are so many good horror movies that aren't just remakes or found footage types or lazy jumpscares.
And there are also movies out there that ARE superior remakes, as well as quality found footage films.
Sorry I don't know any horror movies where the remake is 'superior' most are utter trash/./. the fly is about the only one I can think of along with the thing that have been better remakes of horror films.

Ok do I really have to keep going on about how the last 20 years of remakes of horror films have sucked?>
No, you don't. The only thing I wanted to point out is that there are a number remakes that are superior. It doesn't really matter to me how many more remakes failed.
On the whole, this thread was acting like there's no good horror movies anymore, which is obviously false.
Maybe Night of the Living Dead 1990
shareCarrie was great but not better than Jaws.
