MOVIE NEWS – ScreenRant is willing to bet on anything that Steven Spielberg has returned to horror with Disclosure Day.

For a long time, Steven Spielberg’s new film was surrounded by total secrecy, then the first trailer for Disclosure Day arrived, and it became clear: there was a reason people barely dared to say the director’s name out loud. The ominous teaser suggests that aliens are coming, yet no extraterrestrial beings are actually shown. That is why many have begun to speculate that the trailer is withholding key information because Spielberg has returned to horror, and the plan is for audiences to get their real scare only in the theater.

Spielberg made his mark with the instantly classic Jaws, unless we count the great Duel, which was made as a TV film, and since then, he has not made a horror film that straightforwardly fits the genre. Still, frightening elements do appear from time to time in his work, just think of certain scenes in Jurassic Park or War of the Worlds. In fact, a literally heart-stopping moment in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom led to the creation of a new age rating category in the United States (PG-13).

ScreenRant is now willing to bet that Spielberg has returned to horror with Disclosure Day, arguing that once you get a taste, you rarely escape it. The outlet does add that if it turns out not to be horror after all, that is fine too, sci-fi works as well, and Spielberg knows that genre, too.
