Horror and Maturity

We all enjoy horror only when we were young. Initially, the concept of horror involved with monsters, ghosts and so on. For example, I got shit scared on watching Freddy Krueger. Most frightening movie I watched in my childhood, that haunted me for days, was the movie – Bromstocker’s Dracula. It was always ghost and monsters that scared me in my younger days.

As I got old, like after 16+ years, it didn’t spook me. I was into young adult things at that time. The Vampires that I scared, on watching them suck the blood, were having romance. The werewolves that were gory to the core (In Van Helsing) were doing romance. It’s not I had watched similar movies in my childhood but when I watch it now, it didn’t scare as much as it did back then.

The concept of horror had changed from monsters to humans. The things that started haunting me were never monsters but human. For example, the serial killers, witches and so on…

This didn’t make me to dislike monsters, instead the horrifying effect I had on them got lessened. Also, monsters were used as a tool in action movies. That was so cool that made my liking towards monsters to a new level. The Underworld movie franchise was a great example which I watched recently.

But there was another change in my concept of horror. I started enjoying the quality of horror in any entertainment mode (be it TV Shows, movies or books). Last year, when I was waiting for my job, I had a month of holiday. On that period, I watched this amazing TV Show called The Haunting of the Hill House. It had all the horror elements. It didn’t scare me, but I loved to watch it.

I loved to experience the haunting visuals and music of that TV Show. Now I started loving horror shows instead of getting scared. If anyone argues with me about the logic loopholes in the horror movies, then the answer I would give them would be, ITS HORROR. ITS SUPPOSED TO BE OUT OF LOGIC. AND THAT’S THE BEST PART OF IT.

I don’t believe in god and that proves that I don’t believe in ghosts. But I like the concept of it. The concept of God is a total shit without any creativity to it. But the concept of ghosts (even when it lacked the logic) were good to see. And only in the horror themed movies (or TV Shows or Books), I can able to understand the grey shades of human beings.

When I watched The Shining or the Hannibal series, I never got frightened, but I enjoyed watching the grey shades of the lead characters. That’s what I am talking about.

And these types of fantasy, mythology and human values made me to watch Supernatural!

Boy-Girl Group makes me sick!

Boy-Girl Group makes me sick! Talking to girls is one thing but grouping with girls is another thing. I hate grouping with girls. I have experienced a lot before and whenever this happens – Its cringey – EVERYTIME!!! I even tried to be a part of this boys’ and girls’ gang. The first time was in the second semester of our college. It was a group of boys’ and girls’ where the boys protect the girls.  They are the FIREWALLS and I was a FIREWALL on those days. But being a firewall means you must call the girls in that gang as sisters. I can’t call a girl sister when I am dreaming wet dreams about her.  Ahnn??!?!?!?!  Well I am not sure if that’s a bad behavior or a good behavior. Is it misogynistic? Or is it being human? But I am sure it’s ME! Its how I am inside. It’ll never go away. I’ll never call a girl of my age as sister. Basically, I am a horny guy and I came to the realization that it’s not my kind of place. So, I resigned myself from the FIREWALL.   **E...

Attention! Good Characters Needed! (Supernatural #5)

  The Boys A.K.A. Sam and Dean Winchesters I could watch any episodes with Sam and Dean on it. This kind of watching brought me back to my childhood days. I would watch cartoons because of characters. Be it Courage the Cowardly Dog or Scooby Doo or Popeye or any fucking cartoon I’ve watched in my childhood days.     Sometimes, I would never understand any episodes but watching those characters made me happy and I would binge it anytime I watch. Such characters were the Winchester Boys.  As I was watching Supernatural, I started liking the fillers episode more than the canon episodes. And it was because of Sam Winchester and Dean Winchester. Sam and Dean are brothers. When Sam was a baby, a monster kills his mother, Mary Winchester. John Winchester – Father of Sam and Dean, rescues both his sons and becomes a hunter – a person who hunts monsters to find out the monster who killed his wife and get his revenge. This show starts when John goes missing and Da...
