Why do people prefer horror movies?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The reason people like watching horror films is that they are a way to experience both positive and negative emotions simultaneously. There’s something to the cautionary tale theory as it relates to movies. Many do seem to depict chaos that occurs when people venture outside of what is considered societal norms.

Was the movie Titanic 2 made?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The ship can only go down once. How can they make a sequel? No, there was no sequel. However this movie / story has been told several times over the years.

People are asking this question because of the trailor that was put on YOUTUBE, there is not a sequel to the titanic. The trailor is just clips from various films including the movie and then sounded over to make it sound like a film.

Though on google there was a photo of a new movie: "The Titanic 2- Jack is Back", but this is also fan made.

There is a movie called Titanic II, but it's not a sequel to the original Titanic move from 1997. It came out in 2010.

What makes a good documentary film?

User Avatar

Asked by Holly7474

It's engaging enough to keep the viewer interested.

Some people these days can't handle paying attention for more than 5 - 10 minutes. So I'd say that if a documentary can keep someone viewing longer than that, it makes it a good one!

There's plenty of websites that will do this for you though. Particularly Documentary Addict which is definately the best one out there.

What movie is a horror movie about horror movies?

User Avatar

Asked by Lawdog1881

A horror movie about a horror movie is almost certainly Terror in the Aisles (1984), which is a horror-documentary narrated by Donald Pleasence, who starred in Halloween(1978), and Nancy Allen, who starred in Carrie (1978) and Dressed to Kill (1980). The movie is a compilation of trailers and scenes from other famous horror, crime and triller movies. Since the movie dwells almost exclusively on the grittiest and scariest scenes, many moviegoers found themselves "in the aisles" and racing for the door.

Do films reflect or influence the society?

User Avatar

Asked by Kooolsana1

Big Screen's Affect on SocietyMovies can affect society in many ways

For example many movies can affect peoples beliefs and ideals for example the movie the passion of the christ strengthened peoples beliefs in god or Jesus whereas some Jewish people around the world found the film offensive and anti semetic.

There is also the topic of horror movies and violent movies make people loose their grip on reality and develop mental health issues and in some cases act out what they see in a movie. This is why some movies get bad publicity and wind up getting banned but the irony is that because its banned and gets bad press more people will want to go and see it therefore establishing a cult fanbase if you will.

For others it just shows people about the what ifs of the world, fantasy being put on film to help people escape reality for about and hour and a half.

so as you see some movies can have big effects on society by being controversial, by being heartwarming and sometimes just to entertain the public.

anyway that's just my stance hope i could help john

Synopsis gilda Joyce psychic investigator?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Gilda Joyce is a psychic investigator in training. She follows a lead to the house belonging to her distant uncle, Lester, and his anti-social daughter, Juliet. Gilda leaves for San Francisco and discovers a rustic tower in which Juliet's insane Aunt Melanie supposedly jumped off of. She also sees that at times, Juliet unknowingly zones out and talks to the spirit of Melanie. Gilda talks to Juliet and proposes the idea of trying to communicate with her deceased aunt. At first, Juliet refuses, but after she zones out again, she reluctantly agrees. Juliet and Gilda start their investigation by sneaking into Lester's study to dig up old files, going into Lester's law firm to ask questions in a disguise, and other feats that would get them very little facts, such as, that Melanie refused to go to a home, that Juliet is a painter like Melanie, and the fact that Lester didn't push her off the tower.

Gilda and Juliet's investigation goes so far that they went into the forbidden tower, climbed up the spiral stairs, and saw the whole room was filled with Melanie's interesting, but eerie paintings. They find a goodbye letter to Lester. Lester ends up sleepwalking straight into the tower, and after waking up; he scolds the two girls for entering the tower. He then asks Gilda to go back to Michigan. Juliet claims that if he kicks Gilda out, she will go with her. All three of them proceed to go to sleep and discuss the matter the next day. In the morning, Lester finds Juliet packing her clothes to go to Michigan with Gilda. Lester begs her to stay, and as a last resort, he hands a letter addressed to Juliet from Melanie. They make up and say that Gilda won't go back until the original return date. The next day, Gilda and Juliet go to the beach with Lester's assistant, Summer, who they befriended over the summer. Before Gilda departs for Michigan, Juliet promises to write to each other and Gilda leaves.
