Depending on the film people will expect to find these thrill's in different way's, whether it be through physiological horror that play's on there mind even after the film is over or maybe they prefer a more creepy style of horror that create's its scare's through its twisted, strange and creepy style. Some people prefer there scare's through gore fest's and slasher's that use violence and mutilation to strike fear into the heart's of their audience's. Overall however audience's expected to be scared from watching horror film or at least feel unnerved by the film in what ever way the film was chosen to go about creating that fear. Some audience's may also expect a compelling story within there horror movies and others may expect stunning visuals these generally tend to be lover's of the slasher sub genre.Finally some may expect to see creative and original creature's and monsters within there horror movie's that may have required some amazing puppeteering and special effects to achieve.
Another thing audience's may expect to find in the horror genre would be a memorable experience that gripped them throughout however this could be considered something that audiences expect from most film genre's. However I feel it could be considered more so from horror as to achieve scare's you must first have the audience's attention.
