"The horror genre is known for conjuring up scares, either through hauntings, serial killers, or monsters. When most of us think about horror movies, we think about how they frighten us. We think about how they prey on our biggest fears and make them come to life right before our eyes. We think about how they get under our skin and force us to confront what scares us most, either physically or mentally. Yes, horror is typically unnerving, and sometimes even fun. Still, it more often than not emotionally destroys us. When watching a horror film, we spend hours watching characters survive hardship after hardship in usually dire situations. We root for their survival, their revenge, and hopefully, their happiness. When those things do not happen, it hits us hard. Especially when the characters do everything right, and still don't succeed. It reminds us how soul-crushing horror can be. Here are 10 horror movies that will emotionally destroy you." - movieweb.com
