What a mid year for movies, especially this late Summer- Fall.

Aside from a very select few, I see most horror movies as comedies because they are just impossible to take seriously. Like most genre the clichรฉs stand out. Yet with Horror the need for the characters to constantly do stupid things is stale. The killer being everywhere is stale. The cops being grade a morons is stale.

It's too dumbed down for the sake of having bad shit happen. This is why I appreciate intelligent takes that make logical sense for the most part.

I think it is because it is the same thing every time. Besides Halloween 3, there is not much different about the movies. Is there such a thing as a smart horror movie? Even the ones making fun of the clichรฉs fall into the trap. No one can hide in the back seat of a car, it is not possible.

I imagine there are quite a few horror genre films that manage to pull off a scary enough story without having situations or characters be too retarded or relying on every cliche in the book.
