I really enjoy horror as a genre in general... when it's well done. I don't find jump scares (in movies) or gratuitous gore and gross-outs particularly appealing, but if it's psychological horror, supernatural horror, etc. I'm a lot more interested.
Stephen King's writing I wouldn't say is total horror because many people say it's more psychological suspense, thriller, fantasy, or crime fiction. I like that books can be in multiple genres.
I do like horror in some versions like Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Bram Stoker's Dracula, think about it even some of Poe's writing was considered to be in horror genre and I love his writing.
I enjoyed Psycho because Alfred Hitchcock was an interesting director and this was hailed as a huge success. I read the book Psycho by Robert Bloch and I found it okay but seeing it on the screen was much better.
Slasher movies, they're not interesting to me because the goal is to simply scare without a plot beyond that.
I don't like evil stepmothers. Poor Cinderella and Snow White. Phantom of the Opera. I felt sorry for him. We do need horror. I won't write it. I will let Stephen King do that. Good entry
The song "Still Crazy After All These Years" told us about a character who is facing an internal struggle rather than enjoying the relationship. He felt lonely and had doubts about his love and was proud of his achievements. The themes of nostalgia and emotional pain struggled against his protective barriers against inner threats.
lessons to be learned in a moment, an episode, with someone at your side...
Then, just maybe, that connection or the short-lived link to each person who has entered and still enters my life may be part of a much larger life lesson, similar to a word in a very long sentence.
A life sentence. Hadn't thought of birth to death that way before. "But I'm innocent!" ...well, maybe not. It's hard repenting fast enough to keep up. Like you said, I could use a little help along the way.
