Horror Movies

Even in the early days, horror movies had been part of the many, exciting movie genres out there. These kinds of movies may either come as imaginative fantasies or simply every day real life situations. No matter what century it is, I am pretty sure horror movies never fail to leave their viewers awestruck with the way they are presented and at the same time, dead frightened with their storyline. Some, in fact, may even be stricken with what I'd like to call "horror aftershocks" wherein people may relate the movies' frightening content with their present environment.
Admittingly, factors that make up horror movies can be monotonous yet sometimes unpredictable. As I've mentioned earlier, we can generally categorize horror movies into two major worlds - fantasy and reality. Both have definitely no exceptions in being scary. Fantasies may include deadly aliens, slimy monsters, or even creatures beyond the imagination of a human mind while real life stories, bloody serial killers causing disgusting, painful, deaths. All of these, of course, are accompanied with frightening sound effects which send shocking vibes to their audience. These may came as quiet, mysterious silences which will later be followed with loud, 'heart-strickening' sounds of doom.
People would most likely prefer other genres such as romance or comedy rather than choosing horror movies simply because the former may relate to us, people, more emotionally and mentally. Despite all these facts, I don't think horror movies will eventually lose its place in the movie industry. Well, they can certainly be a good criterion for a director's creative mind!
