Why is Halloween associated with everything ‘horror’? I would prefer watching a romantic comedy over a horror film. I loose sleep after watching a horror film.
The Blair Witch Project is the best movie that I’ve seen. It is eerily realistic and brings back the memories of haunting and urban legends.
I am very scared of horror movies though; I watch them and enjoy the spookiness. Movies that scared me the most was ‘The Haunting’.
