The 10 Best Horror Films of 2024 | Features | Roger Ebert

Perhaps unsurprisingly for a group that self-selects for gothy wallflowers, 'horror people' tend to have a bit of a persecution complex. As such, there's one eternal truism we see over and over in analysis of the genre: horror gets no respect. This both is and isn't true, for reasons that have been discussed to death (no pun intended). What's more interesting to me, at this point, isn't why horror is inherently niche despite being extremely popular. It's how to leverage that popularity.
