Spontaneous Musings

[I may kill my lj, html coding in this thing is making me crazy, sorry for all the edits and weird cut-tagging. I'm bored and procrastinating doing things that well I'd rather not go into. So am writing a lengthy post on The Horror Genre, in celebration of Halloween. Please note that I've left out anime, graphic novels, and a lot of TV shows and focused mainly on films and books. Because otherwise this would have been twenty pages long.]

I have what best can be described as long-term love/hate relationship with the Horror Genre. ( personal history regarding horror or the introduction )

Categorizing the Horror Genre (assuming of course, we can do such a thing?)

1. ( Popular or Mainstream Horror )


2. ( Classical Horror )


3. ( Mad Science or Horror in the Science Fiction Genre )


3. ( Psychological Horror )

4.( The Slasher Horror Flicks )
