Shawn Van Horn has been a Senior Features Author for Collider since 2022 with a focus on horror, and 90s TV and movies.
The Big Picture The careers of two horror legends who forever changed the history of the genre began just a few years apart. Stephen King is a household name who has written countless novels and short stories that have been transformed into hit films, starting with his first book, Carrie, in 1974. For George A. Romero, his career began in the early 1960s, working for Fred Rogers on Mister Roger's Neighborhood, as both lived in Pittsburgh.
The reason why low-budget horror works best is that it makes for a raw and realistic experience. Watch Wes Craven's first film, The Last House on the Left, and you're left uneasy because of the gritty, documentary-style feel. The Blair Witch Project terrified millions in 1999 without showing its monster once because the found footage technique, long before it became overused, took us into the story and made us a part of it.
