I'm female, almost 36 years old... I don't think it has THAT much of an influence, except... well, I'll get to that in a minute :)
I always liked the gory slasher stuff, I was never bothered by nudity - I never cared much for "Interview with the Vampire", even though the movie came out when I had the perfect age for it.
Buuut... I have to admit that the anti-hero has a certain effect on me. In real life, I am absolutely not into "bad boys", but in fantasy land where safety and security and all those nice things never come into consideration, some of the horror movie villains can be pretty attractive.
As a little girl, I had the biggest crush on Vincent Price, and I still think that many of the characters he played has a sort of romantic quality to them, even if they were villains. Oh man, his portrayal of Roderick Usher... daydream material :D
And although I HATE that whole Twillight/cute vampire thing, some of those early vampires certainly did have a romantic quality too... I'm thinking of Bela Lugosi and Christoper Lee here.
