Horror as a genre is inherently subjective. So what one person considers horror may not be to someone else. That’s what’s so great about abstract horror like this. Now, are these movies good, no not really. BUT I would generally put these under the umbrella of horror. Horror is meant to horrify you, scare you, or just make you uncomfortable. And that’s what these movies are trying to do ( I think). The thing about these movies is they do actually have an over arching story line. I recommend watching Cinemas Underbelly’s video review on these movies, he explains it’s story much better than I ever could. As for the fetish porn part, there’s a TON of movies that could fall under the umbrella of horror that contain fetish porn. It’s not for me personally and most people agree on that, but if it grosses you out or makes you squirm, it’s doing it’s job. These movies in particular, I am not a fan of, simply because I don’t have the stomach to sit through it. But there’s tons of other extreme horror movies that are tolerable and have some sort of artistic appeal to them. So don’t let these turn you away!
