Is Neverending Story a Horror movie?

Ok ok... don't jump on me yet.

I loved The Neverending Story when I was younger and I still enjoy watching it.
It is one of the most unique films I have ever seen. I know it is technically classified as a Fantasy movie but... when I was younger that movie scared me!

Even now I would argue that there are horror elements to that film.
  • multiple themes of death
  • the inevitable end of the world
  • a giant scary wolf monster
  • themes of abandonment
  • suffering

What do you all think? I have a Youtube channel and I do deep dives into scary movies and analyze the scares...I really want to do this movie but am I reaching too far?

Is this just more considered a fantasy movie that scares children much like any fantasy movie could?

Thanks!
