Rest in Peace, Sir.

Thanks for giving us Freddy Krueger, Ghost Face and a few good horror & thriller movies like Last House on the Left, Red Eye and The Hills Have Eyes. I even found Dracula 2000 to be decent.

Funnily enough, I’m one of those people who didn’t ‘get’ Scream the first time I watched it aside from the obvious ‘whodunnit’ mistery coz I was pretty much new to slasher-horror genre at the time. Later I found out that it was meant to be a meta commentary of horror movies before it.

Sad news, RIP.

I don't think there's anyone mastering horror like he did.
