    11:29 - They're not rebooting _Black Christmas_ , they're remaking it, _again_ . You can't reboot one-off movies, you can only remake them. You reboot a _franchise_ of sequels (especially if they're serial rather than episodic).
    I still don't understand the credit for _Scream_ ; the same thing could be said of any movie at a cusp of change.

    I would also say that the Lull period was also giving rise to more intense horror when it came to videogames. While there's franchises like Castlevania that involved lots of Gothic horror influences, Resident Evil and Silent Hill were on their way up in popularity during the late 90's and early 2000's and were what helped bring about purposefully scaring gamers, something that continued into the Amnesia games and various other other games heavily inspired by RE and Silent Hill.
    There was also the Clocktower games and games that I'm just now realizing were covered in another video (lolz, 😅🤪)

    Scream was a comedic satire of the horror genre, while Scary Movie was just a straight forward parody. I know on a meta and production level the franchises are linked, but a lot of people online still seem to confuse the terms 'satire' and 'parody' hence why they cannot understand what actually makes the two films different, apart from that one is 100x more goofier than the other.

    The reason why slasher had no staying power is because they had little to no thought or subtext in them unlike modern day super hero films like THE WINTER SOLDIER, they incorporated the themes espionage and who can you trust. However, Studios still have not learned this lesson aside from MARVEL.

      And also to think of the specific horror audiences and their horror subgenre of interest that you want to speak to. Like what was said in the video, we now have ways of seeing movies tailored to suit with audiences individually and personally, so audiences that are looking for goofy or not-so-serious horror to escape from real life horrors may not want something that taps into heavy material and may avoid horror movies that have shootings and terrorist attacks, while audiences that don't mind being challenged will gravitate towards it better. Timing and who you're speaking to is everything! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
