Does Gore Make Horror Better? | This Week In Stories 005

Does gore actually make horror scarier — or have we started relying on it too much? In this episode of This Week in Stories, I’m talking about where I think the line is between effective gore and gore that just feels like shock value. I get into why suspense, buildup, and the unknown can sometimes be scarier than showing everything, and why movies like Final Destination, Bird Box, Mr. Crocket, Buddy, and Five Nights at Freddy’s all made me think about horror differently. I love gore, but I don’t think gore alone makes something scary. What do you think — when does gore become too much? And what’s one horror movie that actually scared you without needing to show everything?
