Something is happening to superhero movies. On average, they're getting less... superheroic. Films like Venom, Suicide Squad, Split, Glass and The Joker are putting the supervillains front and center, and the upcoming Superman allegory Brightburn goes one step further, turning superhero iconography on its head and making a "super" "boy" into a horror movie villain.
These films raise an interesting question, which is what about the rest of the villains? DC and Marvel Comics are filled with interesting bad guys, and they're not all secretly golden-hearted. Many of them are evil as hell. If they got their own movies they'd still be the villains, and most movie franchises that are centered around despicable monsters are in the horror genre.
