Class Notes for 8/25/10

I think the aspect of the horror genre are usually suspension or mystery. A lot of films add usually death or gore but I don't think that these things make up horror films. They mostly just add to either the suspension or aspect of horror films. Also horror films are known to have the antagonist as a mystical being or a being that we don't usually see, usually characters or character personalities. Such as a monster like in Frankenstein.
