we've all known people who talk tothemselves, peolpe who sometimes squinch their faces into horrible grimaces when they believe no one is watching, people who have some hysterical fear- of snakes, the dark, the tight place, the long drop... and, of course, those final worms and grubs that are waiting so patiently underground...Some of the reasons why we crave for horror movies are simple and obvious...that we can, that we are not afraid, that we can ride this roller coaster...how bout u,whats ur reason?

Some people love being scared. Others adore horror movies for educational purposes..there's millions of reasons. I like them partly because technology's finally aught up so that they can make them pretty well..and because I'm looking for one that WILL scare me. I'm a writer. I see most plot twists coming way before they get to them..figure out how it'll end an hour before the movie ends..it's just hard to find one that really disturbs me. To date, I've seen over a hundred horror movies (you can thank my Mom, I was practically raised on horror movies lol) and there's only been two ever which has ever really disturbed me. Mind, not frightened. But disturbed. Which in my mind is even better. I just like something original, not cliche, and something I can't forsee. Because there's more chances of frightening me if I don't expect it.

I like to watch horror movies. A good movie is a one which create any kind of imotions to the viewers. The easiest way is horror.
