Created from old magazines and prints, “Where’s Johnny” explores the evolution of Hollywood horror films. Comparing early black and white horror films from directors like Alfred Hitchcock to the current infinite supply of b-grade horror films, there’s a critique to be made regarding quality and auteurship. Drawing from Mark Fisher’s cultural theory of Hauntology, it seems evident that the entertainment of today has declined to reboots of originals and a commercial collage of cheap visual effect, unconvincing gore and chaotic narratives.
