Are you willing to provide a few examples of horror movies that fit the description?
Different person and I keep saying it, but Silent Hill was a really good movie that got horrible reviews (even among Horror fans).
47 Meters Down, A Cure for Wellness, A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010 Remake), All the Boys Love Mandy Lane, Blair Witch, Contracted, Creep, Darkness Falls, Devil, Doom, Don't Knock Twice, Eli, Gothika, Hansel & Gretel Witch Hunters, ...
There are many more.
I have no idea what is wrong with my brain, but each of these movies generally entertained me much more than movies with a significantly higher rating on Rotten Tomatoes. But critics give movies like Blair Witch 38 % and Avatar 82 %.
Edit: removed Friday the 13th and Halloween The Curse of Michael Myers because they're pre 2000.
