Well, it might be slipping. According to all major horror filmmakers and critics, it always does that. Every half decade or whatever, it looks like horror is dead. Then another movie comes along and envigorates the genre. Funny thing is, it's usually more than one movie responsible for it, and no one can decide which one. In the early 80's, everyone said Evil Dead restarted horror. Other people say it was Nightmare on Elm Street. However, Friday the 13th and An American Werewolf in London were already huge blockbuster hits before ED and NoES. So you see, you can pretty much bet horror's not going anywhere overall. Maybe it won't be big box office for awhile. Then maybe in the upcoming months, it will be huge again. Maybe it will take a year or more.
