Throughout decades of cinema, horror has changed so much that there's no question it's one of the genres that has been reinvented the most. Audiences have evolved, and with them, the ways they can be scared. Horror has also had to adapt itself to inevitable cultural shifts.
Yes, horror is universal. But some do it better than others. While the Japanese and the Koreans have proven they can master the art of the scare, American filmmakers have cleverly found a way to adopt those resources. However, the British have also found a way into the conversation of terrifying films based on classic tropes. These are the underrated British horror films that'll give you a scare this Halloween season. That is if you dare to watch them...
