The Development of Horror Fiction: Does It Reflect A Change In Society?
By
I love horror films, and horror/crime fiction novels. But despite my passionate for gore, murder and generally just frightening material, I am aware of how there might have been a decline in standards over the past few years in the horror genre, where the idea of horror has been abused into something less appealing. Is this simply writers and directors focussing on a more obvious, shocking style, or is it a result of something more?
Gore does not necessarily mean more!
