We could blame Hollywood, or we can blame the viewer who actually goes into a movie like Hide and Seek and expects a solid, intelligent movie. Hmm.

Horror/Suspense movies are by their very nature, the fast foods of the movie-making Industry. It offers quick cheap thrills, and most of it is sloppily made and more than a little greasy. But just like the occassional wonderful fast food burger (ie: In-n-Out) you get the the very rare suspense movie that is everything a good movie should be (Silence of the Lambs).

The plot twists are part of the ingrediants to a Horror movie. A lot of the times those twists will be predicatable and unfulfilling. Honestly, you should go into these movies hoping at best for an elevated heart rate and maybe a few laughs at the expense of the actors/director/producers.
