Scary movies are now slasher movies with all the free flowing blood and guts.
I remember when my friendss and I would have sleepovers at each others house, pop popcorn, snuggle down in our sleeping bags in front of the tv and wait for Friday Fright Night Theater to start. They played old B movie scary's like "I was Teenage Warewolf", or "Creature From The Black Lagoon", now those were scary movies.
