Film4's frightfest season was crap

The title says it all really but I'm not gonna stop there.


I watched about three of the films on Channel 4 as some of the others I had already seen. The two I can remember were....

The House By The Cemetery
Almost fell asleep twice watching this but I thought it was well made. Too cheesy and not scary enough. Doesn't help this film has aged badly.



Vinyan
Ok this was the film that killed Film4's frightfest season for me completely
I have no idea how this film even qualify's as a horror (more like a thriller and a cheap knock off of Apocalypse Now towards the end) and I don't really care because it's rubbish whatever genre it is.
Turned it off after the 40 min rule and it fully deserved it as well.



                                                     You bloody liar!!!!!!




I think Film 4 seasons have been rubbish anyway and is just some poor marketing ploy to repeat the same films over and over again on the channel. I think the best film channel at the moment is the Horror channel as some of the films on there like Zombie Strippers are hilarious and the channel clearly knows its audience.
Anyway drugs season is starting soon on Film 4...I wonder what film will feature on that season...


                                                   ...Still wondering


So please Film 4 put some decent new films on please like you did with the foreign films in the past!!!!!!!!
