At its most basic explanation, Splatterpunk is a movement in the horror genre that sought to portray its horror elements in as unflinching and graphically descriptive a way as possible. No suggestibility or filling in the blanks here, if someone in a Splatterpunk novel has to die you are going to read the gruesome details of it.
