Assuming every horror movie will be bad because it's horror sounds like a great way to never find a good horror movie.

I still watch a lot of horror movies and series (especially during Spooktober) in pursuit of those few exceptions. It's sufficient for me to have a more or less dark atmosphere and a macabre story. But I don't engulf myself in illusions: most of them are just really really bad in my opinion. It's like deliberately watching trash, which can be fun if you approach it with that mindset.

Watching a lot of movies doesn't help if you go in assuming it'll be terrible.

It's rather having very low expectations.

It's not an assumption. Most horror films are just shit
