Nope. It's just an easy sell on feminist tropes for all the reason Daucus9 said.

All the best horror films are ones starring males, typically because they take action and don't act like retards.

The only exception to a female-led horror film series being good is Alien/Aliens, and even then a large part of Aliens are the surviving marines kicking the xenomorphs arse, which is why people love it so much.

• Predator 1 is considered an action-horror thriller, and one of the very best ever made, and there's only one female in it who does absolutely nothing. It's all about masculinity, wits, and brawn winning out in the end. Flipping that trope on its head led to the absolutely horrible Prey, where basic reality and common logic had to be completely abandoned so a superhuman teen could fight the Predator, even though she would have died in one hit.

• The very best horror movie ever made, The Thing, also has no females in it. It's another completely masculine film based around tough guys making hard choices to survive. No one does anything stupid in that film; you're rooting for anyone but the thing to survive. The movie plays it straight with no stupidity, and no females acting emotional and ridiculous, and that's why it's so good. The same thing applies to the original Assault on Precinct 13 and Escape from New York (no surprise all those films are made by John Carpenter).

• Films like Demoni (1985) is also another example of needing masculinity to resolve the situation, because a screaming, frightened female is useless in a situation like that (same thing applied to the sequel).

• Dawn of the Dead is the same way; the only woman who survived in that one was also completely useless (for the most part, until she flew the helicopter at the end, but only did so because her husband had taught her how before he died).

• City of the Living Dead was another where it was far-removed from anything feminist, since women acted like women in that film and... well... most died because of that.

• Alligator (1980)

• Rogue (2007)

• Silent Rage (1982)

• Green Room (2015)

• Stakeland (2010)

• Split Second (1992)

• Sunshine (2007)

• Jaws (1975)

• They Live (1988)

• In The Mouth of Madness (1994)

• The Hitchhiker (1986)

• From Dusk 'Til Dawn (1996)

• Daylight's End (2016) and Vampires (1998 -- and this is one of my absolute all-time favourites ever) are all badass films that are horror but with masculine leads, and better for it.

In fact, I would say that horror films starring males are the best kind of horror films because typically you can expect men to be proactive rather than reactive. It makes for an entertaining film since most people want to see protagonists who are capable and willing to fight back.

Women, however, have a fetish for feeling victimised and wanting to gain some sense of "empowerment" through victimhood, which is why they really like films like Scream, The Descent, and other slasher films that fit the feminist tropes; but few (or none) of those films are up to the quality of most male-led horror films where they're willing to kick butt and take names (like Predator).
