Scary movies have gotten a tad bit out of hand, have they not? I mean, just think about it; back in the day, the simplest things used to drive people into a frenzy. Movies like Poltergeist or The Exorcist would cause people to lose their minds, yet by today’s standard, both of those titles are relatively calm by comparison.

Special effects and CGI have gotten out of hand as well, which can be great in some instances, but too often just looks cheap and unrealistic. The entire horror genre has taken such massive leaps that there isn’t really anywhere else to go from here. Is anything scary anymore?
