Agree- The Horror genre is in good shape. It's a niche that has very dedicated fans who will take a chance on just about anything in the genre, and keep coming back for more because the thirst for the material is high (even if the level of discretion is also high - for the most part, we still watch the garbage, in hopes that the next one might be redeeming). In addition, the niche itself is very large. There are more horror fans out there than one would think, closet or otherwise. General marketing techniques and cultural phenomenon have us moving towards a segmented marketplace where the individual gets what they want on-demand. In addition, the technology is now allowing for more talent to seep into the entertainment industry with less cost barrier. All that is good for niche audiences and sub-categories. This genre is safe in a major way.
