Family horror is horror about relatives, where the danger grows out of a household, a parent's choices or a family's inherited secrets. The family unit is horror's most reliable pressure cooker. Curated family horror uses the home, the bloodline, and the people you're supposed to trust as the source of everything wrong. These films work because the relationships are real before the horror ever arrives.
