Cinematically perhaps. But I think the pop culture influences tend to be in stories for Hollywood, not as cultural impacts like F13 did. To me anyway.

Hell, I'd give more credit to Steve Miner than I would Cunningham, for the direction of the franchise, since he brought the iconic mask that made it a cultural signature. Cunningham disowned the franchise (acted embarrassed having made the first one for a quick buck) until he decided to try to ride the money in 93 and now tries to act like he's Wes Fucking Craven.

I went and saw Annabelle: Creation yesterday and some lady brought her two 4-5 year old sons. They witnessed some stuff a child really shouldn't see at that age, but they never acted scared or screamed once. If we can get at least a handful of children like that across the world, I think the next generation is gonna grow up to be troopers and keep Horror alive.
