❓ Do you have a favorite genre? ❓


Mine would be mystery, followed by rom-com and musicals.

Mystery Thriller Horror.

I just can't do Horror. Real life is scary enough and I don't want to have nightmares. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Its not bloody horror, its thriller horror...Like It Follows.

Ditto, plus sic-fi for me.

Horror. Really creepy ghost stories most of all (the kind where the hairs on your arm suddenly stand on end), but I love pretty much all horror. Other than 'folk horror'. That tends to bore me.

>>Really creepy ghost stories most of all (the kind where the hairs on your arm suddenly stand on end)

... is what I enjoy the most out of the horror genre, but they are very hard to come by.

I do like a good biopic or costume drama. But really, it's easier for me to list the genres I don't particularly care for, horror and westerns come to mind.

reply

I like costume dramas, too. Westerns are okay, but not my favorite, of course.

reply

I agree with you about horror. But the classic ones from the 1930s aren't really that scary, so I except them from my general dislike of horror. And some of the British ones with the likes of Christopher Lee or Peter Cushing aren't too frightening either and can be fun to watch.

reply

I will broaden my pick to say historical drama. For example Braveheart is a historical drama but no one is going to call it a costume drama. But I do like costume drama, don't misunderstand.

reply

Horror, Thriller, Heist, True Crime Documentaries, Superhero/Sci Fi, Comedy.

reply

Depends on my mood. I like comedy, drama, horror, film noir and musical.

reply

No, I only have genres I dislike. I'm not big on Westerns and musicals.

reply

Spaghetti westerns, gialli and Poliziotteschi.

reply

Science fiction then action movies.
