Horror is the Best Genre (and here's why)

When we weigh the merits of media, there's a tendency towards to absolutes, towards seemingly objective statements. And this is similarly a feature of the writing on 'why people like horror', which tends to focus on scientific studies and cites the adrenaline of safe scares as the cause. But horror as a genre is much more concerned with the interstitial, the malleable, the uncertain - a genre that, even outside the context of art, strives to make a mockery of objectivity.

FILM TITLES:
