Doesn’t anybody notice how we clamor for horror movies? We just love to be terrified ! It doesn’t matter if it’s human or supernatural, the scarier the better. Blame it to the monotony of our lives. Maybe it is an escape from what truly troubles us. The mortgage we can’t make, tuition fees, bills bills bills, an unhappy relationship or just plain boredom from a mediocre life.
Horror movies takes us away on an adventure. It fuels our imagination. We forget for a brief moment what is really tormenting us because we are afraid of something else, something is haunting us. We begin to believe that there’s something out there trying to get us. We may be the hero, or we may be the victim. But it’s a story being played out with excitement. Horror movies gives us sleepless nights, we become sensitive of the most minute sound. Suddenly we are aware of shadows in the past not there. We question mundane events and sought to find more meaning to it. They say Art imitates Life, or is it the other way around.
