First, I admit I enjoy horror movies on vampires as those include pretty females and handsome males.Usually they posess superpower that human beings will never get. Watching this kind of movies can give me a mind release, as if I saw a world that is not so hard to control.
But frankly speaking, I have to turn on some soft music when appreciate those horrible ones, to comfort my shaking heart. After the watching, I may worry that tonight some vampires may come to me or I will be taken away by one. I will swear that I will never watch those horror movies and love those nasty creatures. What's a huge shame is that next night I just see these supernatural creatures again. I just control myself to find this type.
So I am very curious about your feelings of watching horror movies. Are you scared? Then why do you still watch them ? Why horror movies are produced?

I just love watching horror movies even though I know that it will eventually give me nightmares and I won't be brave enough to go to the toilet alone. But that doesn't prevent me from wanting to watch horror movies. There's something about horror movies that will always make me want to watch more horror movies. I think it's the element of surprise in most horror movies that attract me to watching them.

Yes, watching horror movies give us much surprise, just like the detective ones, which are much more interesting than those soap dramas.

Theres several reasons for horror films, you get girls to cuddle up to you is one of my favorite. But others are just to feed some peoples sick fantasies and lifetime dreams. Also theres different types of horror, spoof horror and psychological horror are my favorites.

We love horror and suspense movies, we used to watched with my daughters even whether still young. But first i thought them when watching scarey movies don't applied it to real life because it is only a imaginary stories and fantasy or even non fiction movies. After viewing don't even think about it anymore specially at night when going to sleeps so that you will not have a nightmare or a bad dream.

Just like some people like funny movies, some love romantics, some like thrillers and murder mysteries and some [mostly men] love action movies, there are people who like horror. I do not like nonsense horror movies, where there is no story, no logic, just lots of murders, blood and people dressed in weird clothes. I like horror movies like 'Forget Me Not'. There has to be some story and some believable logic in it. It can be made up story, and lots of fantasy, that's fine. I like fantasy things.
And I love Vampire stories too. I am a big fan of Vampires.
Yes, I get scared after watching horror movies, I cannot step down from my bed [what if there is someone under it?], or I keep hearing weird noises at night. But I know this is all because of that movie, and it is not real. It is actually good to have an active imagination.
But Vampire stories do not scare me at all. I think Vampires are sexy and noble and very intense. Love Vampires. Like in Twilight. Or the Television series Vampire Diaries.
Horror movies are part of entertainment and if you like them, that is great. Even if you get scared. You should watch them during the day, and immediately after, watch some funny movies or videos or listen to music, as you seem to like. Why should we not watch horror movies? They have great stories sometimes, and their graphics are really inspiring. Just because they are a bit scary? Nah, go ahead and watch some more, and if you find any great ones, please give me the names of those movies.

I love watching horror movies! The thrill of suspense of terror that creeps in is great - I think that's one reason a lot of other people like them, too. I even enjoy the cheesy b-rated ones, if only to end up laughing like a loon at how corny they are.
