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”. Movies Movies that could be considered Horror-Fi include: * (and all of the series), *The Alien Factor, *Altered Species, *Galaxy of Terror, *Alien Prey, *Biohazard, *The Deadly Spawn, *Event Horizon, *Frankenstein, *The Incredible Melting Man, *Invasion of the Body Snatchers, *John Carpenter’s The Thing, *The Invisible Man, *Outland, *Lifeforce, *Phantasm, *The Thing From Another World
