I've always found it strange why Jurassic Park was never thought of as a horror more often. It's not like children's horror wasn't already a thing by that point either. The book is perhaps more clear cut horror for an adult and I would love to see a more faithful adaptation of it one day, but I still watch the first JP with all the lights turned off even after all these years and it's still honestly really effective as a scary movie.

I kind of feel like if JP hadn't released in the 90s when Hollywood studios were obsessed with not labeling certain types of movies as horror (dirty word) it might be more widespread and acceptable to think of it as one. Marketing in the 90s is the reason why so many millennials can't define what a horror movie is and think everything is a thriller instead which they also can't define.
