What are your favorite sub-genres of horror?
Psychological horror and comedic horror are my favourite sub-genres; Creep (2017), Barbarian (2022), The Watcher (2022), Tucker and Dale vs Evil (2010), and Ready or Not (2019) are some of my favourite horror movies. I love Renfeild (2023) too, but that's really more of an action comedy that happens to have a vampire and gore, no matter what streaming services will try to tell you. But if a meringue is a cookie, then Renfield can be a horror flick. Just barely.
My Bloody Valentine (1987) and its reboot in 2009 with Jensen Ackles are my favourite slasher!
And of course, I'll watch some new stuff from abroad, new extremity, natural disaster horror, death games, splatter, popular new releases, or stuff that gets recommended to me, but if I'm on my own and looking for something, I'll usually pick a psych horror or a horror comedy!
#writer confessions#all my picks are basic but i cannot hide who i am inside: someone who will happily watch Creep and its sequel#psychological horror aspects are why I even like yandere in the first place!#and the comedic potential of trying to diffuse a situation that's so obviously contorted and offer a sense of comfort to the viewer#despite the inate horror of knowing someone is following you and is making everyone turn against you and you don't know who or what you can#trust anymore because of a singular malevolent force that cannot be reasoned with and will not truly relent if you submit either is just...#so good!!! <3#of course I like romantic horror too but these days romantic horror tends to get conflated with like... 50 shades of grey but serial killer#or (alpha werewolf won't take a no & sabatoges contraception to get the always-girl-lead pregnant) erotica. its NOT romantic horror >:7#fucking phantom thread is a better example of romantic horror because of the toxic relationship and obsession and literal MURDER ATTEMPTS#and its a romantic THRILLER not horror. Though they are similar they're just not quite the same. will do in a pinch tho#writer reviews#writer recs
