Bad films, sure. The good ones manage it and they are usually the best horror films. (And Im not just saying by my standards look at the top-rated horror films ever, they most often fit this criteria.)
While i want to agree... examples?


Just a few off the top of my head:

A Quiet Place
Alien
Hereditary
All the numerous zombie films (e.g. classic Romero)
It
Pans Labyrinth
Cabin in the Woods
The VVitch
The Ring
The Shining
The Conjuring (iirc)
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Nightmare on Elm Street
Halloween

A Quiet Place was utterly ruined by its monsters and the inconsistencies with their hearing abilities. Easily one of the most generic designs I've ever seen as well. They're like shittier lickers.

Alien, while my favorite movie of all time, is not a horror film. It's sci-fi. Borderline action flick, like the every other movie in the franchise.

The ending of Hereditary ruined the entire movie. Half of the theater laughed when I went to see it. Absolutely absurd.

Pan's Labyrinth is a fantasy movie, not horror. Not even close. It's basically a fairy tale, and the antagonist is a human. Definitely the best creature designs of anything you listed but "fauns" are an idea that's centuries old, and "guy with eyes in his hands" isn't exactly original.

In every other movie you mention the big bad is a human. There is no "design" to fuck up.
