Follow Ups:
In the case of film marketing, I would surmise probably some of both. Time-worn and tested formulae of various genres encourage the film industry to repeat-reinforce what sells. If slasher films continually appeal to a sizeable(and highly profitable) market segment of consumers, then stick with it. This example might illustrate how the film industry would fulfill consumer wants while using power of suggestion to refuel those desires perpetually. ~AH
