David Cronenberg reveals his beliefs on horror and scary movies

David Cronenberg believes his movies are funny rather than horrific.

In the realm of horror cinema, few names carry as much weight as David Cronenberg. The acclaimed director, screenwriter, and occasional actor is known for his ability to create unsettling and gory films that challenge the boundaries of the genre. However, in a recent interview with The Guardian, Cronenberg revealed that he sees his movies in a different light.

Contrary to popular belief, Cronenberg does not view his films as purely horrific. Instead, he sees them as infused with humor. While acknowledging that not everything in his movies is funny, Cronenberg believes that humor plays a significant role in his work. He challenges the misconception that his imagination is solely focused on horror and explains that his inspiration comes from a variety of sources beyond his own mind.
