HORROR MOVIES!!

1. Horror movies: Task one - Convention.


PSYCHO

First one am going to do is “Psycho” because it was the first movie where they start to use a KNIFE that means a phallic symbol in the horror movies “Psycho”, “Halloween” and “Scream”. Those where the three movies that we watched that really scared me in a way meaning that you don’t know what is going to happen next because in “Psycho” the main character was killed off first and that kind of made a big twist that you don’t know what’s happening next because when “Marion takes a shower at the Bates Motel, she is metaphorically cleansing away her sins because she already decided to return home with the money”, this quote is from The Ultimate Film Guide. When she is in the shower the camera keeps cutting to the shower head and then to her face and you wanting to know what’s going to happen but then threw the shower curtain you can see someone coming with a KNIFE and then the killer opens the curtain and Marion screams and the person stabs her and just keeps stabbing her till she dies because of losing to much, after that he cleans the bathroom and wraps her up in the shower curtain and stuffs her in the car and dumps the car in a swamp.

SCREAM

Now the second movie am going to do is “Scream” and scream is a pretty good movie because it was really scary because the killer would phone you then ask you what is you favourite horror movie and if you answer him right or wrong you still die because in the end of the first Scream movie Billy Loomis says “the best of this is when we ask you a question and you get it wrong you die and IF you get it right you die anyway!” this what Billy told Sydney at the end then he tries to kill her but she wins at the end.
