Not seen the films you mentioned, but from the recent horror films I have seen, I think Hollywood lost the recipe about ten years ago.
I have fond memories of time spent at the Scala Cinema (London, England) in the 80's where they used to show banned film occasionally (it was a club, so they could show things ordinary cinemas could not, and video stores would be raided for stocking). I remember once going there about 2pm on a Saturday and watching horror films constantly until about 8am Sunday morning. Hell who needs sleep when you got a box of popcorn to eat and Italian zombies to watch.
