Jaws is not a horror movie. Unless you have a very loose definition of what a horror movie entails.


Post your definition of a horror movie and watch Jaws fit no matter how you try to twist the words

Wow, somebody on reddit said something! If only that was a credible source!

Jaws is Jurassic Park on a boat. Is there tension? Sure. Are there moments that make you jump? Yeah. Is it "horror". Not to me it isn't.

I like Jaws, and I can't stand Horror movies, ergo, Jaws isn't a Horror movie.

Neither Jaws or Jurassic Park are Horror Movies. A Horror Movie is one where I cover my eyes and/or FF because I just can't take it anymore.
