World Business ReportAvailable for over a year

Hundreds of supermarkets across France were hit by a cyber-attack that has left supermarkets empty. We're joined by a journalist in Paris who tells us how shoppers have reacted. And why are so many of us watching horror movies? What does the genre's popularity say about the world today? A critic helps us understand. (Photo credit: Reuters)
