A Shadowy Descent: The Many Sub-Genres of Horror

Darklongbox explores the many sub-genres of horror. Give it a look, fear friends! #horror #horrorgenre

My journey into the chilling embrace of horror began unexpectedly, with a friend’s innocuous suggestion: a weekend marathon of horror films. Little did I know, this would plunge me into a vast and varied world of terror I’d never before contemplated. The realm of horror extends well beyond the monoliths of its genre, branching into an intricate web of sub-genres of horror, each meticulously…

oh david how i love you

#one of the originators of body horror acknowledging the the connection between transness and the body horror sub genre.#also feel like it’s relevant to add that he doesn’t consider body horror as it’s titled but instead considers it transformation #me watching the fly: something very trans about this #david cronenberg #video #crimes of the future #oh it speaks

neck and neck in the bottom awards

#sorry to my friends I did tweet this but it stands..#bastard sons.. mixed race.. blond. tall.. extending roses.. weird stunted childhood.. history nerds..#arguably Catholic though I think Alistair is critical of the church to the point of not practicing/participating in organized religion..#bottom subs…. let’s just be realistic #they are very different don’t get me wrong but their overlap is hilarious to me….. I think what keeps Alistair from being Tamaki is ofc #the horrors of his genre and also that he’s not a full bishonen baby adored by his parents..#dragon age #ouran high school host club

what do we think about this?

not them taking naomi watts milfing it up as a lannister away from us before we ever even had it 😭😭 u just know she cunted up the scenery so bad they had to shut production down on account of the sheer cuntamination its the only reasonable explanation

#asks #asoiaf #this is so vile why would they do this #my fav sub genre of naomi watts staring roles is remakes of austrian horror films. queen of bad hollywood remakes of great austrian films

Once again, I find myself wondering how many Ascended!Astarion fans who claim they like the “dark romance” aspect of the relationship actually read dark romances.

(Because Romanced!Tavs relationship with Ascended!Astarion doesn’t even really fall under dark romance as far as I’m aware.)

If you do, please tell me what dark romances (titles/authors) you are reading because I feel like I’m missing something.

#astarion #grandmother goblin grumbles #admittedly dark romance is my least read romance sub genre but I’ve still read like 20 of them this year #ascended Astarion and romanced Tav are more of a horror thing rather than a romance thing

Season 5 seems to be moving in the vain of thriller horror which is really fun but I think they should throw in some surrealist horror. As a treat. Just for me 🤲🏻

#i think that the show plays with a lot of different horror sub genres so seeing which ones they will go with #in season 5 will be interesting #stranger things #stranger things 5

literally so held back by the fact that no one in my life likes horror movies. and horror isn’t one of those genres where ppl will just sit thru it even if it’s not their thing it’s like a hard No

#it is impossible. no one in my life has ever enjoyed horror movies. bitch it’s halloween time #abby talks #and it’s also not smth where people will even try to explore different things #like there are so many sub genres. but god forbid a horror fan tries. around halloween #👎

I've never played Left 4 Dead 2 but I saw this 1 mil+ word fic (Blind Man's Bluff on ao3) and was instantly like "I need to read that". So instead I watched a 7 hour game play and stalked the wiki for a few hours and finished catching up to the fic yesterday. So worth it!

#zombie apocalypse is my favorite horror sub-genre #blind man's bluff #nellis #Ellis and Rochelle my darlings #Phil has won my heart but Im afraid to admit it #Coach is the glue right now #Nick my love who I want to comfort and strangle

sorry to my roommate but I am a sjm hater. however I think it’s so funny when books are advertised via comparing them to acotar. these bitches will never be acotar lol

#acotar is shit but like. it basically started a whole sub genre of shitty fantasy smut #like. YA/new adult paranormal romance was basically dying out and that series brought it back with a vengeance #like. it’s terrible. and I recognize this is how book marketing works now unfortunately #(it’s like how every horror movie is like This Is Jaws But With Whatever)#but like LMAO you will NEVER be on sjm’s level get real

the movie was kind of interesting but it was really boring since there was no dialogue (which couldve worked well it just didnt this time) and the score wasnt very exciting and they didnt do the story that well ? they tied in the [REDACTED] parts to the main plot really awkwardly i felt. but i also just realized im not fond of movies where its just surviving in a house theyre not that interesting to me

#rio rambles #i mean some have been interesting . but overall not my favorite sub-genre of horror ...
