    Wes Craven - Love Him or Hate Him?

    peronally i think his films are crap except for nightmare on elm street and even the ending to that was bad and it's not the best in the series.
    Just my own opinion that this supposed horror king is way to over rated and his films arent all that there cracked up to be.
    I remember when i first saw Last House on the Left YEAAAARRRSSS back and i was like... well... this film sucks.
    And Scream was just good enough to finish, entertaining but not great in the least and it spawned two really crappy sequels.
    yes this might ruin my horror cred but fuck horror cred i don't like the guy's movies.
    Now I never seen Red Eye, but i heard it was decent, but after Cursed i was just totally turned off by the guy.
    And serpant and the rainbow has got to be one of the boringest films ive ever seen.
    and i will get flamed for this but hills have eyes was just plain terrible. it's like nothings happening nothing happening. the story wasn't entertaining, i literally fell sleep during it. Now I'm not a fan of remakes but for christ sake the remake was 10 times better and even that movie wasn't that great.

    so Wes Craven? Love him or Hate him?
    Personally i can go without seeing another one of his films and not regret it. Horror King? I don't think so. Flame if you want, but thats just what i think about him.

    so ur stuck in the middle. thats cool.
    at first i thought everyone was gonna flame the fuck out of me, like i would really give a shit if they do. but really take a look at his old films with me....
    Deadly Blessing crap...
    Deadly Friend crap.
    Hills have Eyes one and two, total crap... but to be fair i understand why people liked the first film.
    and i think he did Shocker and that one was omg terrible.
    i still couldn't get into people under the staris. i just didnt' give a fuc kabout the kids.

    I will admit I have not sat back and watched every single thing he's made but from what I've seen I think he's an adequate horror director.

    Maybe history has overrated him and the general consensus outside of Craven fan boys is that he is overrated.

    I always thought he was good with the thriller aspects of the movies I've seen the most.

    I thought his movies in the NOES series were the top of the series podium. Scream while probably his most hated movie. I thought it was a good movie, yes it was more thriller than horror but it had horror elements whereas the sequels came off more or less as pure thrillers.

    Red Line was a good thriller character movie that I enjoyed when it first came out but after a while I can't help but feel like the ending was completely butchered and cliche.

    Cursed was pretty dreadful and plagued by Dimension.

    I think his career is winding down if not done with outside of a slim chance a Scream 4 happens.

    Of some of the biggest names in the industry from the past. I think their all winding down now. Craven as I mentioned. Carpenter still works but its mostly under the rug without much publicity. Romero works but by and large he's been considered as a guy whose past his prime. He was given a relatively good budget with Land of the Dead but it was a mixed bag. Diary of the Dead while it felt more serious to me it was shot down with some bad acting.

    Great director.

    He makes very entertaining movies and has made two of favorite films Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream.

    and yes people Scream is a great movie, stop comparing it to its shittier clones and look at it in its own light.
