Why are quality horror films so few are far between? I feel like

>>84872906
*few and far

>>84872906
Do you know why the saying "quality over quantity" puts quality as the opposite of quantity?

Because most horror is shite. The Babafuck isn't good either.

>>84872906
because there are "people" on this board that don't appreciate quality horror.
So they just keep making stupid shit like the conjuring and so on.

like this dicklet >>84872931

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE: the movie

>>84872929
The quality to quantity ratio is far greater in every other movie genre.

But that's only because of the audience.
Dramas have more quality content, because it's not aimed at teenagers looking to score a chick at the theater. And in the same way, quality romantic comedies are even more rare than quality horror movies.

>quality romantic comedies

>>84872906
Why was the ending of this necessary? Completely ruined the scary aspect with that supernatural shit.

>>84873082
Shitty horror films are pumped out regularly for a dime a dozen and most never make it to theatres. (Scroll through your horror genre on any stream site and see what i mean) Id like to know why its so difficult to wade through this crap and find something worth watching

>>84873228
Ending was meh I guess. Idk. Still enjoyed the hell out of it.

>>84872944
Care to name some films you like?

Reminder that It Follows is shit

Fear is the hardest to trigger on screen

Have you seen Green Room yet?

I enjoy low quality horror flicks on levels you probably cannot comprehense, the lower the rating the better.

More thriller than horror

>>84874309
Name a few cunt

>>84874726
Who called the genre police? If you like horror movies you'll like Green Room.

>>84874758
True but OP literally asked about good horror movies

>>84874776
Green Room is a good horror movie, get the fuck out of my face faggot I don't care if you need a monster or unstoppable murderer to call something a horror movie.

>>84873398
lol no m8

They arn't. There are great horror movies coming out of the indie/B-movie horror scene constantly.

They're only few and far between when you exclusively watch mainstream James Wan garbage and/or meme movies like the Babadook or It Follows.

>>84874815
This. Horror =/= supernatural

>Why are quality horror films so few are far between?
Quality films in any genre are few and far between. Although if you look at more prolific genres, there are more likely to be quality movies just because of the sheer quantity of films released.

Fortunately, you can always go backward. You've got a 100+ years of horror behind you, most of which you (probably) haven't seen yet. Let the test of time do the sorting for you. Anything more than 25 or so years old that people are still talking about is probably worth a watch.

I think the problem is that I don't find anything in Green Room is remotely scary, which is fine because I don't think any of it's extreme violence is framed in a way that it was intended to be.

At best it get's pretty tense.

That being said I love the film, even if it feels like a step backward when compared to Blue Ruin. At least from a storytelling perspective.

that movie was a huge disappointment

Green room schmeen room, Green Inferno is where it's at!

They're out there. Films like Berberian Sound Studio, Spring, and The Witch are always being made. Stop looking to Hollywood.

Horror will always be shit because they can turn a $10M budget into $300M regardless of the quality

>>84877176
Dude.

Dude.


Shallow? Just because the institute isn't a specific allegory doesn't make the film shallow. Great cinematography, great acting, brilliant twists and the two main leads are interesting. Also, the concept alone is great.

>>84877235
here's my perspective the last horror movie i saw,

i rated 'em:

Lights Out
6.5/10

Bone Tomahawk
7/10

Get Out
7.5/10

Crimson Peak
8/10 (storywise not that great but bretty good visual i say)

i don't know what to expect with A Cure for Wellness but I will download and watch it

>going to watch It Comes At Night too bcs of the hype but still no link to be found

>>84877477
Its pretty good and well shot.

The only downside is that its like an hour too long.

>>84877477
Crimson peak looks pretty great. I do think that visual finesse can make up for a somewhat weak story as the visual aspect can really emphasise certain emotions. A bit obvious but worth saying.
