Oh that's a great idea, I think there's a lot of untapped horror that's left to be explored in super hero stuff, the implications of a lot of powers have a lot of pure horror potential
The most recent Fantastic 4 was apparently originally intended to lean into that, with some body horror shit when they got their powers and stuff, but the studios apparently removed the vast majority of it
This is really hard because horror thrives on being very low-budget and superhero films are generally expensive. So you get half-assed PG13 horror to try to get crossover appeal and it flops and no one tries again for a while.
On that note I would be down for more superhero horror movies
