Counterpoint: Longlegs and the Unkillable Conservatism of Horror Films

Starting with Frankenstein and Dracula and going all the way through The Exorcist, Carrie, Re-Animator, Hell House, Hereditary, Talk to Me, and Longlegs, the messages of horror films often reinforce positive social norms and warn against violating them. Greed, lust, and pride get punished; so do crimes, violations of God’s natural order, and playing with occult forces.

Supernatural, capital S, the CW show about brothers Sam and Dean and Dean’s angel boyfriend Castiel and no women to speak of (except Charlie). Not THE supernatural.
