We all like a good scare. Well…we all like a good scare that doesn’t come when you open a letter from the bank or a utilities company. There is a lot of discussion of why we like to be made to feel uncomfortable and I am nowhere near qualified enough to weigh in on any of those arguments. I’ll just say that Google is your friend if you want to find out more.
Horror as a genre has been around for a lot longer than the cinema. Mary Shelly, Edgar Allen Poe, Bram Stoker, and a whole lot more have been telling tales to make your flesh crawl for centuries. Superstition and folklore go back even further. Following on from the early days of cinematic horror, there have been many and various sub-genres developed.

Got this back when I was pregnant, but I’ll be keeping it forever, it’s just so handy. I don’t go to the movie theater that often (even back before quarantine when you actually could…) but I make sure the app and the movie list are all current and updated, cause it’s so handy! It’s great for running late cause you can read their summary, obviously awesome for bathroom or snack breaks mid movie, and I also love that it tells you if there’s anything after the credits which is very handy.
