So I just been thinking about a thought/question about women in the horror genre.
I mean what is it about women in the horror genre? Say for example, on a lot of* covers for horror/monster movies contains the monster and a woman screaming scared. You rarely see the cover for horror/monster genre where it's a man yelling scared.
Another is the villain/horror genre. For example the friday the 13th series [which I hate that series by the way] where jason voorhees is chasing the last woman around, and she's scared and screaming. But yet it is the last woman that put down the villain. I mean seriously, why it be a man that puts down the villain, because the woman is already scared.
Also I was on tiktok last night and it was a channel that was acting like someone catching monsters on film and jump scares. One of the sound effects was a woman screaming, and one he videos was one of the monsters chasing a woman. [the monsters were stupid and jump scares are cheap and stupid by the way.]
I know that both men and women plays in the horror genre, but it just something about when women plays in them. Is it some kind of dominance and submissive thing going on here? Is there even some sort of sexual connotation going on here? Because women scream in sex also, especially in porn.
So what do you all think about this? Post as many thoughts as possible.
