Joe Queenan's guide to horror filmsAll horror moves divide into several different categories: slasher, zombie, vampire, mainstream horror, Asian horror and revolting Eli Roth films. Indeed, horror is the one genre in which the absence of cliches would ruin everything.

In most typical horror films young children are often evil, If one hears children humming innocent nursery rhymes in the background it is often lead by a gory murder.

Most horror films are set in rural areas mainly because it is a deserted area and there are lots of weapens in farms.

Horror movies also contain lots of scenes in which the living dead or the living undead zip past an open door or window, but nobody sees them. This can easily make the audience feel uneasy and it plays with their minds, It also builds up suspense and the unknown.

Things not to do whilst watching a horror movie:
- It is always a bad idea to go to sleep in the middle of a horror film.
- It is even worse to get in an elevator, a popular hideout of the promiscuously dead.
