Horror films are incredibly easy to do well. The reason they aren't done well is because a lot of the directors are too obsessed with their own "twisted genius," and they make money being in the creative rut they are in.

The concept behind horror is to take a girl to a movie, get her scared by the predictable stuff that the guy knows is coming, so he can hold her arm while she freaks out. Then he gets laid later, and the movie-makers make money. Everybody wins, except those out there that appreciate actual frightening horror cinema.

The market for that is a lot smaller than what you'd actually expect, because when it comes down to it, a movie is either meant to be fun, or help you grow in some sort of way. When people are going to be "scared," they want it to be in a fun way. Or else then things become too "real."
