If there’s such a thing as ‘comfort horror,’ one title is stating quite the case

While Insidious is a great film horror fans have consistently reviewed well, and the gross at the box office speaks for itself—would it be considered a “comfort horror?” It’s definitely worth watching for anyone who might have slept on it back in 2010, but don’t expect to get much comfort out of it.

Sincerely, it’s probably a good idea to consult the Urban Dictionary on this because the term “comfort film” is being thrown around as if horror fits into that category somehow. While Urban defines a “Comfort Movie” as “A movie that one watches to feel less shit and a movie that evokes many positive/lovely feelings in that one person,” it doesn’t define “Comfort Film” the same.
