    I love horror films. What's your favorite horror movie moment?

    • @h3mera

      Probably my favorite horror movie moment would be (MINOR SPOILERS) the dream sequence in Hereditary where the mother tells the son she didn't want to have him and waking up lighting a match with gasoline all over them.

      Maybe the VHS in The Ring (the american remake). The idea of yourself watching a film within a film which you know that if you watch, you may die in seven days. By the time the movie came to home video, we still watched movies on a VHS platform, so the power of the metalanguage was even stronger. Even so, we have the movie itself, that is a surrealistic depiction of various (almost) unlinked BW scenes of a rural phantom area. It's a very profound way of making us fear the cinematic idea itself.

The sudden drop can catch someone off guard. Some on here mentioned that they thought the woman was gonna sprint at the guy or attack in some way but that didn't happen. But she didn't, which left them wondering, creating a sense of suspense and tension, which can cause anxiety or fear.

    The scariest moment still for me was the "Go to sleep." Scene from Skinamarink. It was so simple. It showed the dark eyes of a telephone toy, making it look like a face, before it showed a light on it and made it look like the normal toy it was, before shining the light away, going back to the same, creepy looking face.
    This showcases the whole idea that we're not afraid of the dark; rather, we're afraid of what's in.
    Shot to the puddle of blood on the floor, followed by an uncanny face of something resembling a human body, without having eyes, mouth, ear, or hair, but having a nose, and it only saying "go to sleep." Before it just..ends.
    It's genuinely one of the best written scenes in all of movie cinema for me. Just the absolute devastation and fear you feel when you realize the message behind the scene.

    “Terror is the feeling of dread and apprehension at the possibility of something frightening, while horror is the shock and repulsion of seeing the frightening thing”
    I think this scene absolutely nailed uncanny terror, the feeling of dread at the ghost and the anticipation of something to be loud and sudden. When uncanny is done well, it can be scarier than any jump scare, it’s that sense of familiar but just offsetting enough to be scary that this scene does really well.

    I love how you touched on jump scares, so many modern horror movies rely on it and it’s the exact reason I despise the Conjuring movies. It is an effective way to momentarily raise your heart rate, but not effective in the sense of a lingering or lasting terror which I believe a horror movie should accomplish. This brief scene you’ve shown literally gave me goosebumps and terrified me to look around my currently dark room.

    The calmness of the ghost is terrifying.
    In most horror films, the jumpscares make it feel like there's a rush, that there are time limits...
    The calm and slow approach just projects a feeling of hopelessness in this situation...

      That's the whole point of the scene. It's so dark, and she blends in so well that you don't notice her until it's too late. Like a slow motion jump scare. You spend half of the scene looking for what you're supposed to be afraid of. When you finally find her, she's right in front of your face.

    • @bellebonebag8096

      The worst part about this is how slow she walks. It's like she's mocking you, she doesn't need to run to catch up.
      She just walks after you as you run away in terror. When you finally get exhausted or go to hide somewhere, that's when she'll getcha.
      She's not just some ugly creature or spooky ghost. She's an intelligent wraith that waits patiently in the shadows. It's not about whether or not she'll get you, it's a matter of when. Running is just prolonging the inevitable.

    Another aspect that caught me other than how she was staged as a background element is her proximity to the stairs. It's like (at least for me) when there's a large spider right next to a door or entryway that you need to go through. Rather than realizing how small the spider is and that you have plenty of space to walk through that door, your awareness of its presence extends outward from the spider giving it a larger perceived size in your mind and causing you to hesitate to cross that threshold or avoid it entirely.
    In this case, the stairs are his (or your) only way out and since her movements are slow, unnatural, and deliberate, there's no way of ensuring in your own mind that you'd be able to make your way past. You get hypnotized by the movements, and THEN realize her position in relation to where you most want to go. She envelopes that hallway with her presence and denies you access to that threshold to freedom, if only in your mind.

      And of Martyrs, which starts off as seemingly normal until the actual film starts.
      This brings an idea seemingly fitting for a trailer format. I’ve always been fixated on how typical films get and the formulaic structures that make them completely predictable. What if you make a trailer that appears innocuous and misleading within the opening of the trailer’s runtime, and reveals only more and more of the horror element a mile a minute, but in a way that the trailer doesn’t avert from the formula of one’s choosing (ie: an early 2000’s rom com trailer with mere traces of something having went awfully wrong, only brushed past by the trailer, but sufficient that it is only obvious enough for the viewers, but impossible to notice without actively watching, until the end of the trailer, when it’s real intention is at least hinted at) and reveals just enough at the end to highlight the intrigue of the film, that which is the unsettling element beneath the innocent visage. I believe this has been made before, though I couldn’t recall the most immediate one.

A human at least can be killed or run out of energy after a while. A ghost most likely has limitless stamina and can't be killed unless you have some magic. Unless you're the main character, you're dead unless you just carry around magic spells or have like one specific thing that shall remove the spirit which will be nearly impossible to attain.

      A “jump scare” merely induces an automatic reflex in the viewer. A kid can do that to you simply by jumping out at you shouting “boo!”. Momentarily being _startled_ is totally different from the slow build-up of a sense of _dread_ and _apprehension_ that truly great “horror” films specialize in. “Jump scares”, used sparingly, can effectively serve to release the tension built up in that way. Overused, they become trivial and silly.
      The problem with the word “horror” as a genre lable for movies (or books) is that it has a far too wide range of meanings.

    I watched this film after I saw the title of your video, but did not actually watch your video until I had finished the film. Pulse felt more like a play than a movie. Japanese slow burn horror about the realm of ghosts reaching capacity and spilling into ours. The dominant theme is loneliness, in this life and the next. The characters, who live dull lives, come to the terrifying realization that death might simply mean a continuation of their dull lives, a continuation of that loneliness, but this time it’s for eternity. It's quite deep and probably speaks to the Japanese in particular as depression isn't openly talked about over there, and is stigmatized even. I tried to watch it through that lens and that's how the movie got to me. I really appreciated that, as you pointed out, there are no jump scares because that's not what the movie wants to serve up. It's very cerebral, high brow, intellectual in a way.

    It scared me because of the sudden break in rhythm; we expect her to remain walking in that pace because it shows how the situation is controlled and natural, only for that to be shattered by a sudden burst of unpredictable movement from an already ominous figure.

      I genuinely got a shiver when she ducked down. I think it's because when you crouch down like that it's normally to build momentum to start sprinting. But that's then juxtaposed when she returns back to that slow, soft rhythm. Either way, I don't like it and I'd like it to stop :).

    I had a moment like this in real life
    I used to work for an auto parts manufacturer and they were onboarding a bunch of new hires. They did this in an unoccupied office space that was mainly used for storage and training. I arrived early and was the first one to head up.
    It's a long flight of stairs up from the factory floor and it's all completely enclosed. When I got up there I thought I saw someone else up there, waved hello and asked if I was early. What I waved to was just a manikin dressed in the standard work atire and I realized this immediately after talking to it.
    This triggered the usual uncanny valley response, I froze and my heart began pounding. I had just been tricked by a stationery manikin in what was at the time a dark and unpopulated room. It was just me and this manikin up here and the stairs behind me felt like a long way down. I stood there for what felt like an hour just staring at this thing, my stance was low and my muscles ached as I braced for anything. Finally I backed towards the stairs and began defending as fast as I could, glancing back far enough to use more than my peripheral vision.
    Turns out I was 25 min early.
    I can't seem to adequately describe it here but that manikin just standing still was the most frightening experience of my life
