I'd say, "Or am I full of crap?" but I think we've covered that already :-)
I dated a paramedic who loved going to accidents. (yeah) Wasn't remotely bothered by the sight of blood. But couldn't watch a horror film.
Does horror attract us on an instinctive level?

We are born be bad....look how hard it is to train and teach a child to live by the rules and be polite.....or look how easy it is to get a bad kid(just take a stroll in Walmart on Sunday and you can see what I mean...)
I think it is easy to be evil,it takes work to be a good-but as we work,thank god,there are horror movies.
