American horror has had a tough time of it of late, for a genre-based around scaring people it is constantly being shoehorned into the lucrative but tame family entertainment market - which kind of shoots itself in the foot.
But every once in a while a film comes along that breaks all the rules, thinks out the puzzle box and eschews the demographics to tell a story in an exciting and original way of how the unknown, with hidden rationale and motivations, relentlessly inflicts unreasonable amounts of punishment upon its victims - leaving you the viewer feeling as if you have just been dragged through a thorny bush and once it is over you are relieved to be on the other side. And whilst there will always be an argument for horror being about ideas that are infinitely scarier than a visual bloodletting, but it is my experience that it is actually the combination of the two that makes those rare great horror films.
You know the kind of film I am talking about Sir Ridley Scott does, John Carpenter does, Clive Barker does, Neil Marshall does, Tobe Hooper does, Hideo Nakata does, Wes Craven does, Alexandre Aja does (most of the time), David Moreau & Xavier Palud do, Pascal Laugier does, Daniel Myrick & Eduardo Sánchez do and Sam Raimi does, but does Fede Alvarez the Director of the Evil Dead 2013?
