As a horror fan myself I have nothing against people who dislike this genre. I'm not going to show horror to someone who dislikes it.
But why do said persons call it stupid? Do they think that the people who like horror are stupid, because they try to get scared, which is a negative feeling?
I don't know what you mean. Are you talking about movies, like Friday the 13th?
Some horror is quite badly written, especially screenplays. You're thinking-- nobody's that damned stupid, this just doesn't feel realistic enough to get into.
Some of it, like Edgar Allen Poe or some of Stephen King's books, are brilliant examples of literature.
