Most people think horror movies are just about scaring audiences... ...but they've actually
been society's secret therapy sessions for decades. During the Cold War,
monster films let Americans process nuclear anxiety without talking politics. In the seventies,
slasher films emerged right when women entered the workforce in record numbers... ...creating complex conversations
about female independence and vulnerability. And after nine eleven, torture horror exploded...
...because audiences needed to confront fears about bodily autonomy and control. Horror doesn't just
reflect our fears, it gives us permission to feel them safely... ...which is why
the genre spikes during every major cultural crisis.
