Rockstar games – red dead redemption

Horror a history thing
Horror films strive to elicit emotions of fear, disgust, and horror from viewers through frightening scenes and depictions of the macabre and supernatural. They often overlap with thriller and science fiction genres. While some films focus on the supernatural, others deal with topics like serial killers, diseases, or surrealism. Famous early horror films included Frankenstein and Dracula in the 1930s, while the 1970s and 80s saw a rise in slasher films due to advances in technology. More recently, psychological horror films without sequels, like The Others, have been very successful financially.

This document discusses the horror genre in film. It defines horror films as those meant to elicit negative emotions like fear by preying on primal fears through plots involving evil forces intruding on everyday life.

While some of the earliest examples date back to the 1890s, the genre evolved over the 20th century and can provide societal benefits when used resourcefully.
