With type of genre there are certain things the audience watching expect from it for example the horror genre 

There is dark colour grading, certain camera shots, mis-en-scene and sound is done in a way to give this eerie and scary feeling to the viewer 

Like with romance genre there is a more soft colour grading, romantic music to give the romance feeling to the viewer There are certain conventions of posters and texts in the movie as well e.g horror movie poster would have red colour in it or black colour in it whereas romance posters would have brighter colours such as blue, yellow, white and it would be pleasing to look at
