The 1990s were notorious for being a stagnant horror period. But as Alexandra West writes in her book, “The 1990s Teen Horror Cycle: Final Girls and a New Hollywood Formula,” “horror went mainstream in the ’90s by speaking to the anxieties of American youth during one of the country’s most prosperous eras.” Horror and its influence could be found on magazine covers, fashion ads and CD soundtrack covers. West continues: “‘Girl power’ feminism and a growing distaste for consumerism defined an audience that both embraced and rejected the commercial appeal of these films.” Notable films of the time were Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1992), Scream (1996), I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997), Idle Hands (1999) and Cherry Falls (2000).
