Silent films are a thing of the past, new films today consist of constant explosions shooting scenes or extreme movie detail. Silent films still show the basis of the need for the video taking possibility, but the need for sound and intensified video effect are a constent must, just flat out makes for better entertainment for the eyes and ears. Silent films have awsome old time movie monster films such as Frankenstein (1910) would be an example for a classic monster movie, who hasn't heard of Frankenstein. Another example would be of the movie The Green Eyed Monster. Any monster movie back than was a huge success depending on some classic components of chase scenes, or people dramaticly die, underwater beasts swallowing, but the new graphic capabilities just blow the compotition of silent films away for any capabilities of being better. Godzilla was a great movie with people dying flaming breathe and a whole bunch of city destruction, oddly enough everything needed to make a great monster movie. Alot of serial killer films in the silent film era would consist of  a man a mask jumping out of bushes or alleys dragging people off by covering their mouth and doing what ever a serial killer does to his victims. The  famous addition to the serial killer film era would have to be Saw, a old man capturing people with an assistant making them go through extreme lengths to save their lives. Usually the person dies and the assassin is never found by authorities. Just the new ideas people come up with now a days is fancy to a viewers eyes (Saw, grousome effects) and to the ears a suspensful scene where a killer jumps out with so much emphesis on when the killer grabs their victim and everyone jumps outta there seats. Just so many new ideas and effects that can be added onto a movie, making silent films no longer in need but a great way to experience movies when they didn't have the effects recent technology has been able to accomplish.
