IMO Grimm is pure fantasy, but does everyone see fantasy the same way? Not talking about what the dictionary says it is your own opinion.
IMO these are the five types of writing or movies. You may have more up to you.
Drama
SiFi
Fantasy
Comedy
Horror
Drama follows rules that gets the viewer involved in the story and wanting to know the answer.
Sifi can cover all the rules could be the one area that has all areas of writing.
Now comedy is up the person IMO if you get the joke you may laugh, but if you don't get the joke is it still funny?
Horor I'm not a big fan now for what counts as horror is just how many bodies can be racked up. Some of the early horror movies like the 1949 The Thing or Them the story taped into base fear.
For myself fantasy is the most interesting because it lets the viewer suspend the real world for the writer's world. Reading Terry Brooks getting into the magic world with it own lack of rules. The Elfstones of Shannara has drama and magic but no real world contact, unless you count how come the Elves are back among men.
So how do you see it?
