The influence of Hollywood horror movies on Indian horror cinema
This article examines the influence of Hollywood horror movies on Indian horror cinema, specifically focusing on Bollywood's development of the genre. Although Indian horror movies have always been popular, Hollywood has played a significant role in shaping the genre through its use of visual effects and storytelling techniques. This has resulted in Bollywood horror films that feature more elaborate visual effects and complex narratives, taking inspiration from Hollywood classics. However, there are also notable differences between Indian and Western horror cinema, such as the use of cultural context and music. Indian horror movies incorporate elements of Indian mythology and folklore, while Bollywood films are known for their use of music and dance sequences.
