Why watch horror films?
Yuck I hate horror films like Saw and Hostel, I would have nightmares for weeks after them if I ever saw them and I have seen clips of them so Im nervous to even buy them. I think its like a roller coaster for some people. You have been on one roller coaster and you really want more so you go on it again or try a different one. Its the thrill and passion that the roller coaster gives. This thrill is what horror film watchers want from the movies and I suppose this is why they are so popular. Some mildly horror movies are quite gripping and good, but if you want full on gore movies then hostel and saw are for you. They are to feed the evil inside you I think.
