With advances in technology, horror films shifted from the Gothic towards contemporary concerns. Horror and thrillers had intertwined
way back in the days of the Old Dark House (1932) and Cat People
(1942). However, horror's relegation to the B-movie zone in the 1950s meant
that those directors who were interested in thrillers had concentrated on
producing glossy, stylish, film-noir stories with no taint of the supernatural,
the monstrous. The film Psycho by Alfred
Hitchcock presented us with Norman Bates, the monster so close to normal it was
only in the final section of the film that he revealed how monstrous a man
could be instead of using in-human creatures and aliens as the monstrous
characters.Horror was starting be taken seriously both at the highest craft of film production and at the lowest: setting the stage for important horror films sub-genres that come in the following decades.
