"WHY WE CRAVE HORROR MOVIES" By Stephen King

1) To some extent, I agree with stephen king regarding his ideology on horror movies. The reason is because some points he said are absolutely right. Watching some one in pain or watching them killed is not a good thing. Its not really humanly to cheer and clap on someone's misery or death. Stephen King is right in the facts regarding the Horror movies. But to call some one Mentally ILL or SICK or saying that some one's a mad man outside the asylum just because he is enjoying watching horror movies is something i would totally disagree with.

2) SAW (Parts 1-6)
Wrong Turn (Part 1-3)
Child's Play (Part 1-4)
Final Destination (Part 1-3)
These are some movies which, according to me, were very well directed and made. Ofcourse, they are not for every one but for those who like watching horror movies. These movies did the most business and were watched by many people. The sequels of these movies wouldn't have been produced if they were not demanded by people. It is very obvious that sequels are made when public likes the first part and wants to see more of such things. It's all about the demand and the supply. And ofcourse, as everyone knows that these horror movies are just a work of fiction. There is nothing real in such movies and that makes it something which people are totally aware of.

3) When Steven King says, "As long as you keep the gators fed", He means that as long as you keep the general public happy by giving them what they want. Be it emotional and romantic movies or horror movies. His arguments are credible to some extent but it doesn't change anything. People will see what they want and they will watch it and no one can stop them. Once again, its all about Money.

100 people, 100 different perspective. Some will say horror movies are good, some will say its bad. It all depends from person to person. I Love to watch horror movies and I also agree with stephen King and I believe that his arguments are credible to some extent.
