Top 10 Movie Genres That Died Out

What about zombie movies?

I feel like I'm the only one that likes found fottage

what about the live action talking animal movie genre like cats & dogs, alvin and the chipmunks, g force, beverly hills chihuahua and racing stripes? that's a genre i'm glad it died by 2012!

I was gonna watch La La Land but then I saw it was a musical so I changed my mind

If i'd made a Spoof film, it would be very succesful.
And if i'd made a Western film, it would be starred by Scott Eastwood, with his father Clint Eastwood in a secondary role.

I love 80s and 90s parody films

I’m glad young adult adaptations died

AGH I HATE THOSE TORTURE CLIPS

I need hood films to come back that’s one of my favorite kind of movie

Musicals died out? Lucky if we get one a year? Just within the past year and a half we've had Beauty and the Beast, Mamma Mia 2, Moana, Jungle Book, Greatest Showman, and La La Land. Les Mis, Frozen, and Into the Woods weren't too long ago. Wicked, Dumbo, Aladdin, Lion King, Pocahontas, and Mulan are all coming out soon enough.
But you don't have Biblical films, which really ARE one every few years (and a good one even more infrequently), or epics? Titanic is the last time there was an epic film released. What about gangster films?

Which SciFi subgenres would b some examples?

Western dead? It is said that it died 1960s but they made some of the best films back then. I think it will never die but it can go under the radar. People should watch more westerns since they are genuine with a little GCI mostly.

*The Strangers* is a 2018 Slasher movie

I really miss the 3 hour movies

Forzen was a musical, actually all princess movies from Disney are musicals,

Were only interested in cars, apocalypse, and super heroes!

Boyz In The Hood alone is better than 7 Genres on this list.

So to bring back these genres all at once, picture this!
A Parody
Found footage
Creature feature
Film Noir of a
Vampire
Romantic comedy
Western
Slasher
Torture porn
YA adaptation
Musical
In da Hood
GENIUS!!!!!

the film genre from the 90’s and the early 00’s that’s a kids movie where the bad guys always end up with cake on their face or in a lake, etc
i legit don’t know the name for it, but that

I think YA is far from dying out, maybe they don't get the attention things like THG or divergent got but there is a line up of films coming out.
This year: Love, Simon (adaptation of Simons vs. the homosapiens agenda), Everyday came out a few weeks ago I believe, The Darkest Minds comes out in september, Anthem (adaptation of Anthem of a Reluctant Prophet), The miseducation of Cameron Post came out on Sundance this year. The hate you give adaptation is supposed to come out this year.
i'm sure there are more that I'm missing.

If they spent some time thinking of ideas, their videos would probably be alot better.

10. Only like a few of them, know a few of them. But actually don't really like them. To long, to much music, just do know it's not there anymore.
9. Don't know these ones. Don't care about them\
8. I LOVE SAW! I cannot wait for a new one. Some copycats are good to, but only SAW is the master in this genre.
7. I only like these in certain moods. Not now. A lot of good movies have come out. And still on the Dutch tv each week there is a special day for these kinds of movies. Won't miss them however.
6. Not sure about this one.
5. I love slashers. Thought this was fitting for Saw to?
4. Only Cloverfield is GOOD. All other movies I didn't see.
3. I WANT MORE PARODY FILMS. I really love them!
2. Never seen this ones.
1. Don't like these ones, never did.
Lucky disaster movies haven't died out yet xD Or car movies.

Great writing will bring back any genre...you just can't rely on a formula.

The Giallo.

and the nicolis cage genres

I thank Allegiant for helping filmmakers to realize they should stop splitting single books into more movies. Gosh that movie boring.

If you don't care about making money.
A lot of these genres can be very memorable.
Not successful, but memorable.
That's better, right?

First of all fuck torture porn,second of all nobody gives a fuck about musicals,last but not least 3 billion dollars.

the documentaries about celebrities... like the JB movie... i wish those would die out

Some recent westerns.. The Salvation, Jane got a gun. I don't think westerns should be number one. Other genres mentioned are less represented

disney still makes films based off books

disney films are musicals

6:51 Geezzz...So NOT funny! At ALL! :-\
But LAME as Hell!

“All rom... no cum”

I want parodies back and action movies extinted. And superheroes. I can't take seriously those actors pretending to say serious or even impressive lines, wearing such ridiculous pyjamas. Well, it has an easy solution : I won't watch them and let others do.

Most American westerns are boring but spaghetti westerns are dope

make "Titanic" movies a Genre
2200 Titanic sequels, in each sequel a different passenger is the protagonist and the story told from his or her point of view

giallo films will always be king

I pray for Superhero movies to die out as well.

YA Adaptations and Slasher films are quickly making a comeback though. . .

I grew up watching westerns. They are my favorite genre of movie.

Western films could be considered to have a minor renaissance. More westerns are being produced these days and their number (and quality) outmatch all the other genres in the list.

Number 1 should be court room dramas. With the passing of legendary director Sidney Lumet, the genre just died. The last good court room drama films were Find me guilty (2006)by Lumet and The Lincoln lawyer (2011). I would also include Psychological thrillers and Gangster films in the list.

Vampire films never die!

What about gangster films?

Sad thing about YA genre in books is that it's possible to find good stories there... But basic ones are the ones that get a movie done :(
My problem with found footage movies is that I can't believe for a second that you can run for your life and still get such a clear footage. When people in real life is running and recording at the same time, they always get a lot of senseless images. Sorry, I just can't.
PD: Why is everybody so easily upset, complaining angrily about anything? D: That's not healthy. D: No need to get so mad, people :P

So-called where land healthy otherwise stock greet injure.

Murder Mysteries and Film Noir need to make a comeback asap!!!

goodbye, westerns. i will not miss you

This list is sad but true. It pretty much lists just about every genre out there. All that is left is the super hero movie or the big summer block buster.

I'm guessing Supernatural movie like The Conjuring is still in style.

Disaster Movies should've made the list and also creature feature films is not dead. There's Godzilla and Kong skull island actually they're making a franchise about different creatures. Not to mention the Cloverfield "Franchise" (I hope it is) and the upcoming Rampage Movie starring Dwayne Johnson. :-D

Romantic comedies still get made all the time!

6:50 Hahaha, I'm officially DEAD (and hungry) LMMFAO! ; )

Hey, animated musicals are still popular (or live-action adaptations of animated musicals like "Beauty and the Beast")!

War depictions will soon be here

Let’s bring slasher films back!

this is the most innacurate list Mojo just stop

Martial Arts film have sadly died. With the new Kickboxer films though I'm hoping it comes back.

Of course watch mojo cites Halloween as the first Slasher film.

Project x was really good

What about the 'psycho thriller' genre with hits like Unlawful Entry and The Hand That Rocks The Cradle to the classic that kicked it off Play Misty For Me died out towards the mid 90s

Hateful 8 modern western amazing movie #ThankyouQuentin

What about Slapsticks?

What about HAMILTONNNNNNNN

Silent movies???

Which genres will likely die out soon?

Many romcoms are still released every year - it's just that very few are good or popular.

I wish comic book movies would die...

I will ALWAYS love westerns and film noir.

Silent Films?

I miss hood films

Slasher no, Hood not really, Musicals fuck no, romantic comedies kinda, ya adaptations unfortunately no, film noir yes, torture porn yes, creature features no

(SPOILER WARNING for a 74 year old film)
I love TO HAVE & HAVE NOT. It's one of my favorite films. But, strictly speaking, I'm not sure it counts as a film noir.
Better Bogart examples would be THE MALTESE FALCON, THE BIG SLEEP, etc.TH&HN is more of a war time action/adventure story with a fairly happy ending.

Fantasy. To be fair though, aside from LotR, Narnia and some ripoffs, its not even really a genre in film. In books and games though, it still reigns strong

I really don't get how you classify the young adult genre. It's like saying "these movies/books are now randomly for a certain age group" or something. It totally undermines the importants of some of those works, and might just scare off older viewers. It's just so darn sad to see humanity always wanting to group stuff together bacause they're faintly related. I get stuff like "horror" or "romance", even though genres aren't set in ston and can be interpreted differently by each peron. "Crimson Peak" might be a horror film with romance in it, for instance, but some might see it as a romantic film with horror elements.

You left out Giallo films, which is unfortunate because I love Giallo films. I am glad, however, that hood films, torture porn films and YA adaption films are a thing of the past.

So a genre gets a good movie in, and the studios blow it up and drain ever last penny. No wonder they're dying out

Kinda thought zombie movies would be on here. 5 or so years ago, there were new zombie movies left and right

Only a couple of these are genre by definition. This is the third Mojo video I've watched over the past few days where the answer is 'nope that's not true'.

Not completely correct...

Ouch. I do like the whole found footage genre. TBWP wasn't very good though.

If the Wayne’s Brothers parodied it, it’s dead.

What about the found footage torture porn rom com kung fu musical genre? I found it mysteriously absent from this list... 🤔

musicals haven't died out if you count most of Disney's latest movies

And guess who's time is almost up according to statistic trends? ... Superhero films, thank fuck.
Soon we'll be getting movies with actual storytelling again instead of the same damned story with characters in different spandex told to idiots who can't tell the difference.

Musicals are a dead genre? I don't think so! Chicago won the Oscar for Best Picture in 2002, Disney musicals are a staple of human life, what more do you need?

Is it me or the guys voice different

Noir was an era. Anything made in the style these days is Neo-Noir.

They still make hood movies tho 😂🙄

I want more westerns dammit! In grade school I was mad at Brisco County Jr’s cancellation. How about a motion picture? It may not have Lord Bowler after Julius Carry’s passing 😞, but I’d sure love to see that
Trey Parker & Matt Stone may still have a musical up their sleeves, I still haven’t seen Book of Mormon (but love the soundtrack).
Michael Myers maybe older than Jason Voorhees, but older than them is Leather Face. I did enjoy the TCM remake, but the previous 2 films were so bad by comparison (I just liked the first two flicks in the original run). Hated the remake to Friday the 13th, despite having The Mentalist’s Amanda Righetti ❤️. I liked the Halloween remake more than I thought I would. I didn’t bother with A Nightmare on Elm Street remake. Anyone can play Jason or Michael, there’s only one Robert Englund

Westerns and coming of age films

Musicals should have been #1.

Every decade there's going to be a horror mania. After that, it dies.

And Pirate Movies? Hello Creature Feature is basically save with Sharknado.

Wrong. Musicals are still a thing.

About the dead western genre...
The lone ranger was pretty good

No 0: Kung Fu movies.

Personally, I want to know what genre films continued to thrive while others have died out.

Can't mention CLINT EASTWOOD in the western genre because hes a right winger and watchmojo is a liberal cryfest
