I agree with your general point, but a lot of the examples of "very original very interesting" stories aren't that original either. The amnesia/asylum storyline is an old favorite. The newlywed couple story is just The Amityville Horror or The Shining. The girl travelling between worlds owes a lot to Lewis, Pullman, and Gaiman. And so on...
