What made me to watch the "Supernatural" Series? (Supernatural #3)

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!

Aftermath of a trip is worse than a hangover

The Wrap Up The Ooty trip had taught me too things! One – To spend minimally. Two – To plan stealthily. I brought a Jumbo Loan immediately after my Ooty Trip. After my discussion with my mom, it was inevitable for me to take a loan. The loan helped me to pay my credit card, my brother’s last year college fees and we had bought a water purifier too. Surprisingly, I decided to take a 10 Year Asset Insurance plan and started saving 60k each year. I started saving for my Kanyakumari trip too. So, I have created an RD account for 6 month (I am going to break it out in 3 months... DUH!!) and started saving 3000 a month. Though it had its disappointments, the Ooty also had its fair share of enjoyments. It was a great beginning for the year 2021. I had never imagined that I would watch two Selvaraghavan’s films on a new year (that too back-to-back). It had happened this year. Even completing a one-day Ooty trip was also an achievement of some sorts, excluding its...

NOI – A Short Film by Naveen Selvakumar (Last Days of IBM #2)

NOI – A Short Film by Naveen Selvakumar In June 26, I watched a Japanese film called One Cut of the Dead (2017) It’s a movie about a director who directs a zombie movie in an abandoned building. But there is one problem. They have to shoot the movie in a single take, without any cut. While they were shooting, real zombies started to attack them and the movie was about the events that had happened before and after the zombie attack. It was an excellent movie. The hero of the movie (who played as a director) and the director of our short film, Naveen Selva Kumar (NSK) look exactly the same. Both look wise and skill wise. It all started in the mid of July. 16th of July to be exact. I was planning on watching two Malayalam movies that weekend when NSK sent me a script and asked me to read it. The next day, I watched Nayattu (2021) and Malik (2021) Both movies brought a lot of controversies. Nayattu dealt with making Dalit as bad guys (not explicitly) and...
