"Yes, horror films tend to focus on victimization of women," testified Dr. Grant. "In our culture, women have been coded as weaker, more emotional, and more vulnerable than men.
"In horror films, it creates a greater effect to have women running from a monster, screaming, as opposed to a man."
He added nude female victims in horror movies became common by the early 1970s as the public's acceptance of pornography and the increasing nudity in mainstream films made it profitable.
