I'm a huge horror fan and none of the recent releases have remotely interested me. Gretel and Hansel (backwards title, seriously?) looks dull, the upcoming Fantasy Island looks to be a disaster. I'm pretty sure I fell asleep during The Lodge trailer. 2 'F' Cinemascores for the genre this year doesn't inspire confidence, either. I hope the next Conjuring is solid.
They've all interested me just because I'll watch most horror movies. But they have not been a good crop. I've only seen
The Grudge so far and it was truly awful. I will still see
The Turning but have lost any genuine excitement for it. I think
Gretel and Hansel could be decent. It looks very visually appealing. I still don't expect it to be well-received but hopefully it won't be terrible.
Fantasy Island seems really fun I think. It will be trash but fingers crossed for entertaining trash.
The Lodge is the only one of these that seems genuinely great (and the only one that will have good reviews). I'm excited for that one. That and
The Invisible Man are the ones I'm excited about until
A Quiet Place II. I think
The Invisible Man could get solid reviews. Leigh Whannel is not a bad genre filmmaker (
Upgrade is fantastic and
Insidious 3 is the best in the series after the original).
