Why do couples move into haunted houses? Why does a zombie apocalypse happen? Why do a group of teenagers choose to spend a weekend in a cabin in the woods?

Horror films channel the fears of a particular society and draw their inspiration from cultural and historical contexts. Scary Movie: A History of the Horror Movie is an exploration of one of cinema’s most gripping genres, from its inception to its modern hits.

You’ll learn how approaches to creating fear on screen have changed, what images and plots have become iconic, and why horror films continue to attract audiences around the world, and finally find the answer to the question of why we (don’t) watch horror films.
