Horror-Fi is a film sub-genre that combines elements of the science fiction film and the horror film.
The term Horror-Fi can also apply to films that feature a horror premise along with the physical and visual trappings of science fiction film. Cinematically, Horror-Fi may have started with the 1951 film “The Thing from Another World”, though some consider the “Frankenstein” and “Invisible Man” movies to be sci-fi/horror hybrids, thus making them “Horror-Fi”.
