Thesis Proposal

Primary Text: -The Amityville Horror movie (1979)
-The Amityville Horror movie remake(2005)

Outside sources: "Movie remakes are tiresome and insult the intelligence." by Carter, Richard

"The positives and negatives of horror movie remakes" by John Gugie


Thesis: Movie production has taken a significant step forward since the pre 90's period, but the same can not be said for content and quality, and no other movies show more signs of this than the horror genre, especially horror movie remakes. The mass consumer culture are more into special effects and cheap thrills in which these watered- down movies offer them.
