Revisitation Revised

I tweaked my last paragraph:
I now see a lot of parallels between Horror and Drama. In Drama you have both the modern and the classical definitions of tragedy and failure. So what's the difference between Horror fiction and Tragedy? Perhaps Drama can be defined by personal flaws and failings that lead to one's downfall, while Horror represents the impersonal and the alien? Something to think about for the next revisitation.
A new starting point for future thoughts.
