Horror

It wasn’t long ago that the genre of horror was emerging from the film industry with some of the most innovative and original horror flicks that were scaring even the most tolerant of people. Even though it was quite fresh in the 60s and 70s, the majority of audiences were ready and intrigued to meet these ominous villains and messy killings and there were even cases of participants having to leave the cinema or throwing up at stomach churning scenes from movies like ‘The Silence of the Lambs ‘(1991) or ‘The Thing’ (1982). Unfortunately, this level of novelty and resonating fear has been lost in the recent decades, due to the detrimental rise of teen slashers and ‘torture-porn’.
