>Talking about our desire to watch horrors, Glenn Sparks, a professor at Purdue University, stated: ‘There’s a motivation males have in our culture to master threatening situations.
>‘It goes back to the initiation rites of our tribal ancestors, where the entrance to manhood was associated with hardship. We’ve lost that in modern society, and we may have found ways to replace it in our entertainment preferences.'
Is the Horror genre only for high test males?

Yes, sitting in front of a screen and bearing through some shitty flick does certainly make you a man - a nu-man!
I just like weird shit. It has nothing to do with testosterone. You're not tough for watching a horror movie.

this. as "edgy" as it sounds, i just like watching movies where dipshits die in horrible ways.
This sounds like a load of shit.
Most of the people I know who like horror movies are women, believe it or not.
People fear what they don't understand. And what we don't understand is naturally interesting.
Plus, well done monsters and shit are just aesthetically cool.

This is has been my experience. Every single chick who I have met in my life who claims to be a fan or horror is into shit horror, and they only like it to seem cool. Start naming off some classics from the '70s and their face goes slack like you are speaking Greek. They all like Scream, garbage like that ... or worse yet, horror comedies.

Holy shit I've seen this guy walking around campus That's funny
Craven said the same thing. Google Wes Craven boot camp.
But what would he know. Edgelord faggots of /pol/ rage against any introspection or analysis. "Muh kewl monstur" ... And damn sure don't ever read a Cronenberg interview. Big scary think words

The worst I ever had to do was drink several tallboy Clamatos that had been sitting in a hot shower for a few hours.
