The most consistent theme in horror is “Weird Faces and The Awful Sounds They Make”

Worst. Nightmare.

It’s entertaining, to test your fears, at least to me. But I also don’t actively watch it, and I’m not afraid of ghosts 👻 interesting stuff though🧐

Like comedy, horror is really subjective.

You ever seen Greener Grass? For me, it's a particular kind of horror that's also hilarious. I don't mean there are scary bits and funny bits. I mean it evokes a feeling of horror that is itself funny.

Makes 𝘮𝘦 laugh anyway.

I haven’t; movies are something I just never find time for, sadly. Totally right about the link between horror and comedy, though - two of the body genres

"I saw him standing there...I say him standing there..." Catchy pop cover tune or prologue to a nightmare?

Just so we’re all clear, this is a topical riff on one of my all-time favorite tweets:
