Horror is a film genre seeking to elicit a negative
emotional reaction from viewers by playing on the
audience's primal fears. Horror films often feature scenes
that startle the viewer; the macabre and the supernatural
are frequent themes. Thus they may overlap with the
fantasy, supernatural, and thriller genres
Horror films often deal with the viewer's nightmares,
hidden fears, revulsions and terror of the unknown. Plots
within the horror genre often involve the intrusion of an
evil force, event, or personage, commonly of supernatural
origin, into the everyday world. Prevalent elements
include ghosts, aliens, vampires, werewolves, demons,
vicious animals, monsters, zombies, cannibals, and serial
killers. Conversely, movies about the supernatural are not
necessarily always horrific
