About Horror Films:
Horror films are movies that strive to elicit responses of fear, horror and terror from viewers. Their plots frequently involve themes of the supernatural. Horror movies also usually include a central villain. Early horror movies were largely based on classic literature of the gothic/horror genre, such as Dracula, Frankenstein, The Wolf Man, Phantom of the Opera and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. More recent horror films, in contrast, often draw inspiration from the insecurities of life after World War II, giving rise to the three distinct, but related, sub-genres: the horror-of-personality Psycho film, the horror-of-armageddon Invasion of the Bodysnatchers film, and the horror-of-the-demonic Scream film. The last sub-genre may be seen as a modernized transition from the earliest horror films, expanding on their emphasis on supernatural agents that bring horror to the world.
Horror films have been criticized for including graphic violence and dismissed as low budget B-movies and exploitation films. Nonetheless, all the major studios and many respected directors, including Alfred Hitchcock, Roman Polanski, Stanley Kubrick, William Friedkin, Richard Donner, Francis Ford Coppola, and George Romero have made forays into the genre. Serious critics have analyzed horror films through the prisms of genre theory and the auteur theory. Some horror films incorporate elements of other genres such as science fiction, fantasy, mockumentary, black comedy, and thrillers.
About Horror Movie Station:
Here at Horror Movie Station, we like to watch horror movies, collect horror movies, and collect all of the little things that go along with the horror movies. Such as costumes, masks, accesories, action figures/dolls, and other things like that. We have a general discussion thread if you want to discuss just any horror movies. But, in general discussion not all of the movies have to be horror. They can be sports and other things like that too. But, if it goes to fairies and things like that, I will either ban you, or just delete the comment/reply depending on how bad it is. But before you just start blabbing of in the general discussoin thread, please read the rules first. If you have any questions about this, please pm me.
