Does Metroid count as a horror franchise? A few games (Fusion, Prime 2, Dread) in the franchise have me thinking yes.

For me, no, I have never really considered it to be horror.  I guess there are some light horror elements there, but the games are never really overtly scary enough for me to think of them that way.  I just think of it as more a sci-fi game.  And the way Samus gets powered up over the course of the game also limits the horror element.
