1. How many horror films have you watched over the past three months?
1-5 6-10 11-15 16-20 20+
2. How many of these were viewed at home?
18+
3. How many of these did you view alone?
all but 2
4. Why would you watch horror films in a group?
Oppertunity - if i with friends and we want to watch a film chance s are
it'll be a horror.
5. Why would you watch horror films alone?
Same as above - chances are i've no one to watch it with.
6. (If you answered that you did watch films alone) Did you ever re-watch isolated clips of any of the film?
Yes
No
Please explain why.
not very often but if the very od time if something catches me by suprise i might rewind and rewatch,
7. Were any of these clips violent in nature?
Yes
No
Please explain why:
as i stated above and often horror films have a sudden violent scene. I tend no to masterbate to a loop of the beheading scene from Nekromantik 2 anymore.
8. What in your opinion is the difference in watching a horror film in a cinema and watching a horror film at home?
For the most part you concentration and focus is higher in the cinemna (if u can ignore idiots on cellphones) - that and the sheer physical size of the image and better sounds increases the impact a lot more than home viewing.
9. Do you find that you react more or differently to scenes of real violence (for example news footage)?
Of course. Knowing some thing is real has a much higher emotional impact.
10. How do you find that you react differently to these “real” scenes of violence in comparison to staged violence?
It depends on a number of factors . The term '“real” scenes of violence' is too broad for me to answer the question properly. For example watching a real streetfight does give me a little rush as long as its not too one sided and no one is seriously hurt but to see some one seriously injured does make me feel uncomfortable. But watching carpet bombing warfootage where i know 100s are killed doesn't seem to effect me so much.
