7. How horror has changed over time
The setting in which a text is produced, that is the gathering of factors 'outside' the
text which knowingly determine its meaning (i.e. the time, place and values of the society
in which it was collected), have an important influence on the reception and symbol of
the genre of which that text is a part. An example of such an rate is the horror genre
and the way in which it has varied and taken numerous forms throughout time and in
different cultures.
In order to be defined as a text from the horror genre, certain characteristics are
usually required, yet due to the constantly changing values of society throughout time,
not to mention the opposite values of different cultures around the world, these
characteristics are not only pretty broad, but open to use and assumption as a result of
the different time and place, as well as the values of the society in which a text is
produced.

1950 films They used a more methods in giving their films through widescreen
and big-approach methods.
The early 20th century brought more signs for the horror genre including the
first monster to appear in a full-length horror film.
I learnt that over time there has been changes in horror films, there has been a
change in technology so they is more of a chance you being scared now a day more
than be for.

The films inspired me because they all meet up to expectations, all
the films I picked are horror films so they are meant to scare you and
make you feel disgusted and these films did.
