We’ve all different and got different reasons why we like horror. What’s your reason?

    Most films mix together elements of different genres but many horror films tend to be a pure genre experience. I suppose comedy films can be similar, where the focus is comedy and nothing else.

    Not sure if I’m explaining this well. I suppose I mean that by having strong genre conventions that supercede everything else then horror films can embrace camp, cliche or whimsy more readily than other films can.
