I think that many gore movies are a "sub genre" of horror, but not every gore movie is part of that sub genre... I love "Bread and Circus" and it's certainly not a horror movie( comedy with a message), "Ichi the killer", badtaste....and I consider them as "gore" before being comedies, thrillers, action movies,horror, etc.....
Something I can tell for sure is that "horror" and "gore"share many similarities when it's about looking for a target audience. Guess the link between both is that horror fans tend to be used to lots of violence on a movie than "other genre" fans... Just my opinion I 'm no statistician to prove it
