Genre movies, especially Horror has been the most profitable genre over the past decade and (especially during the pandemic), it has been the only genre that has proven consistent success at the Box Office alone. Horror movies can be well produced for a lower production budget thus maximising profit potential. Unlike most other genres, horror doesn’t solely rely on the need to have a well-known cast member to help bring in big returns. A solid story that fits the conventions of the genre/sub-genre is the key selling point itself. As the world around us gets more chaotic and dysfunctional, audiences turn to Horror films as a form of escapism from the horrors of everyday life, thus the demand for more unique voices in this genre to fill that void, making now more than ever the right time for investment into film. 2022 Horror success proves originality can win - Game Rant Horror Movies make more profit, heres why - Screen Rant Low budget horror movies that killed it at the Box Office - Moneywise Hollywood turned its nose up at Horror - Now streamers are racing for the next big scare - The Verge

Genre films can offer the greatest returns in the independent space, simply because they do not need huge production budgets and expensive P&A spends, and independent companies do not have big overheads to recoup before you start to see a return. With a well-structured finance plan combined with high execution values, a movies financial success is not solely centred around performing well at the box-office, in order to see a good return on investment. "Indies have always been an important training ground for British talent, though. As Bentham notes, they provide “probably one of the toughest boot camps you could ever attend” for filmmaking. It’s in the streamers and studios’ interest, then, to preserve this space and keep “feeding that pipeline”. - Streaming is booming in Britain - Evening Standard
