There have been a few discussions in horror forums I'm a member of that have argued reasonably convincingly that horror works quite a bit better in short form than in long form.Personally I prefer long form, but I see the point of short form horror.
I have found that it has been most beneficial for me to realise that there are wider and sometimes more interesting views out there than my own.
Personally, I quite enjoyed the horror selections of the last two years. They were a bit outside what I would usually pick which ended up being quite enlightening.
