what does horror mean to you guys? Like, is it an artistic expression, maybe a type of comfort, etc etc. Love your podcasts!!! 🫶
I guess I see it much like any genre - as a kind of licence, based on audience expectation and audience trust, to take them to certain places.
For me the only difference with horror, and what really excites me about it, is that it's a particularly flexible licence, with fewer hard requirements, and the driver is given more scope to go to stranger, bleaker, and darker destinations in pursuit of something interesting.
So we can debate whether elevated horror or torture porn or soft Halloween spookadoodles or whatever counts as 'real' horror (or indeed whether The Silt Verses should be called contemporary dark fantasy instead), or like Stephen King in On Writing, we can try and impose some kind of hierarchy of the audience's emotional responses, but horror resists these attempts to clearly classify it: humanity's collective understanding of the genre remains broad and mutable enough to include existential terror, cosy ghost stories, transgressive body horror, bleak and violent nihilism, and goofy Lovecraftian kitsch.
I love some of this stuff as great art and hate some of it as trash (and love some of it as trash as well), but the joy of horror lies in the fact that it's such a big, anarchic, permissive playground.
Horror is the sign on the door that simply promises, 'Bad things are going to happen.'

is it just me or do those Tiny johnlock aus like socklock/olivelock/bird husbands seem an awful lot like the kind of thing sherlock would demand from john as a bedtime story
:O ! ! !!!! I AM TBH DYING !!!! im holding my face in my hands imagining them somehow in a routine where Sherlock’s like “John . John. I cant sleep. John.” and John’s like [sighs] “all right yes. okay. so, you and me, but we’re olives,”
