There are two kinds of horror movie goers. The ones who act tough but are actually s******* bricks during a jump-scare. Then, there are those who accept that they don't love horror but don't hate it enough to break into sweats just rethinking about it in the middle of the night.

The world swings between these personality types. Whether you prefer playing a happy tune during a tense scene during a spooky film, leave just enough gap between your fingers while covering your eyes or you are one of those guys who believes putting on a horror film is a good date night idea (but you know, you're only acting tough in front of that pretty girl), horror movies are never going out of production.

In fact, horror films are the most popular film genre right now. Currently dominating the box office because they offer audiences a safe, cathartic way to process real-world anxieties, movies like Obsession, Stree, Weapons, and Sinners, upcoming Backrooms use terror to mirror deep societal issues of grief, technological isolation, loneliness and more.
