This was an interesting topic. I wonder if the increase in DEI practices affected this trend you pinpointed. It seems like when it comes to horror the relation between writer and producer is tightest, because a writer who wants to make horror films almost by necessity needs to know how to attract investors, producers and distributors, and still maintain their cinematic vision. I would definitely want producer credit in something I wrote, both to have a say in production decisions, and for the potential equity if the movie succeeds in a big way, which is a strong possibility with horror.
