Modern horror has become frightening in stranger, meaner, more personal ways. The scariest recent films do not rely only on a monster walking out of the dark but instead, they trap people inside grief, addiction, family rot, childhood panic, spiritual infection, public violence, and the horrible feeling that the world has stopped following normal rules. And just off the top of my head, it’s almost as if the approach toward horror films changed after Black Mirror.
