"Classic" does not always mean good

Rating: 5/10 (18 March 2019)

Same problem with The Omen and Halloween. It had it's time when there was still a lot of experimentation, but now I just found most of it to just be dumb. Concepts are scarier than jumpscares and gore. Scary concept, a creature that infests its host with a touch (The Thing). Executed how? By inducing panic through not knowing who was infected next. Scary concept, demonic possession. Executed how? By making the same few demons do the same thing over and over like laugh hysterically and not doing anything else most of the film... Just watch The Exorcist or Insidious.
