Why does every expired copyright movie have to be horror?

Because low effort horror producers are the first to need a “new” idea, and expired or public domain properties are the easiest way to get them.

The key phrase here is “low effort.” These movies generally take a semi-decent premise and then run it into the ground faster than a nepobaby’s inherited business. That’s why they all end up as schlock and give the genre a bad name.
