Likes of the Genre:

I love the thrill it gives, it makes me actually engage with the film. Just something about the adrenaline rush is what makes me so interested.

Dislikes of the Genre: 

Really hard to master. Horror is complicated, and after seeing the top films within the genre, everything else just seems like a bootleg version of it. Same plot, same everything. So, I wish there was more originality, suspense, and a build-up to a jumpscare-type feeling.
