the problem is that many thrillers have horror elements and horror have thriller/crime elements ..they borrow from each other so its no clear line..its individuals like us that define their place...but I'm pretty sure that 8MM isnt horror...what i remember its more like a crime(investigation)/mystery..it had potential(good story idea) but I think Joel Schumacher could have gotten more out of it...maybe someone like Lynch or David Fincher should have directed it...
