Personal Review: 'Binge Of Berserk's Guts'
Berserk 2016
First let me say that I have been sick for a few weeks. So I did a binge of Berserk episodes 5 through 8. Perhaps because of my illness I saw Berserk in a different view. In the beginning I felt Guts was off to a really good start. But with episodes 5 through 8 I get the feeling of being bogged down. As fast as Guts runs he does not get very far (storywise).

    In “The Outsiders” by H. P. Lovecraft, the author more than hinted at what is a horrifically set story. One element of his well put together setting was when he introduced the castle on pg. 21 “ I know not where I was born, save that the castle was infinitely old and infinitely horrible; full of dark passages and having high ceilings where the eye could find only cobwebs and shadows.” This is a great example because it was also on the first page, which was a clever move from the author. So once you start this story your initial mood about the entire story is “infinitely” gruesome. Another element of the setting the author showed great extent in thought too is that he makes the main character completely isolated most of the story; pg. 22 “ I must have lived years in this place, but I cannot measure the time. Beings must have cared for my needs, yet I cannot recall any person except myself…” This shows the creepy aspect of being completely alone in the woods or in a dark scary castle. Which is blatantly one of the basic scary dreams that most everyone can recall; so once this nightmare is brought back to all the readers a sense of fear of horror washes over all the readers.…

    Horror movies bright out the demon in everyone. Normally someone would not be rooting on a person getting sawed in half with a chainsaw or getting stabbed in the back with a knife in the shower. In Steven King’s Why We Crave Horror Movies he discusses why people love horror movies so much. Of course, some people are not a fan of horror movies. Not everyone can handle the jump scares and gore, however some people can sit and watch the massacre for hours. Horror movies supply people with an adrenaline rush and a sensation of fear while bringing out the sociopath side found within everyone.…

    emember the Titans is the story of a high school football team in the 70's as the black schools and the white schools are integrated. But Remember the Titans is not a movie about football, though it does contain many epic games. Nor is Remember the Titans a story about Racism, though it does deal maturely and realistically with the racial issues students and adults were forced to face in the 70's. Rather, Remember the Titans is about people doing the right thing. Remember the Titans is about heart. Remember the Titans is about the human spirit. And most of all Remember the Titans is about friendship.…

    In1982, Stephen King, a renowned horror author, published a very brief essay titled, “Why We Crave Horror Movies” and then submitted it to the Playboy Magazine. Around that time, a few year prior, a mass murder and serial killer named Ted Bundy, who was at his prime between 1784 and 1778, was found connected to at least 36 murders. Ted Bundy proclaimed that his reason behind his mass murders were due to pornography, which can be found in any Playboy magazine. Knowing this information, Stephen King could have published this essay in Playboy to address that horror movies could be used as a release to discard any insane emotions rather than eventually leading up to killing an innocent human being. In Stephan King’s essay, “Why We Crave Horror Movies”, King listed and explained the many reasons why people choose to go see horror movies as a source of entertainment. In “Why We Crave Horror Movies”, Stephan King persuades men to watch horror movies because they crave and choose to go see horror movies as a source of fun and entertainment to feed their insanity.…

    Random Lunacy Video Review

    This video affects me more with emotional things than anything I think. As I started to watch the video I was trying to figure out what the parents were thinking by placing those children in those situations. This issue is a very important issue and I don’t think that it gets near the attention that it deserves. There is so much attention placed on so many things in this world but yet the situation of children and their parents who are living on the street get swept under the rug. The laws and legal systems don’t seem to do anything about but want to complain about the crimes and how wild these teenagers end up being. The legal systems don’t seem to realize how living homeless and moving place to place actually affects the parents and the children. It is a parents right to raise their children how they want but at the same time there should be limitations on these thing to ensure children basic needs are met to a certain extent. However the parents have a choice to live like that but the children they bring into this world don’t have a choice and they suffer the consequences of being homeless just because they were born and their parent made a choice to live like this because they don’t want to pay rent or taxes and this is totally unacceptable. In the minds of the parents of these children they are wanting to raise their children a certain way and that is understandable but at the same time the parents do not realize the psychological problems that it can have on the children. The parents of these children were being careless as early as when they got pregnant with the children. By living a life like this there is no prenatal care to make sure mom and baby are healthy. By living homeless the parents are exposing the unborn baby along with the children that have already been born to so many diseases among other things not to mention once a baby is born there are no doctor visits for vaccines or to check to see if the baby is on…

    In the short story “Why We Crave Horror Movies” by Stephen King, the author suggests, everyone has some degree of evil inside. Some act upon their evil in ghastly ways ,while others simply suppress their evil inside. First of all, King states that “we’re all mentally ill.”He further elaborates on this point by saying, “those…..outside asylums only hide it better.” Essentially, saying we need ways to tame our evil. King , evidently presents the idea that scary movies are a way to satisfy our inner evil, for those of us considered sane. While those considered insane, chose to express their evil through horrific and indecent actions. In reference to, Jack the Ripper and the Cleveland Torso. The question of sane vs insanity comes into light.…

    It was the summer of 1983; I was reading my first Horror novel by Jay Anson “The Amityville Horror”, it was the scariest thing I had ever picked up. Despite the late hours I continued to read into the early morning hours until my eyes burned for relief. Whenever I got up to use the rest room I would stand on the end of my bed lean over and open the door and jump so not to be grabbed by monsters that might be laying in wait under my bed. This started a long love affair for horror stories.…

    Stephen King is one of the most well-known horror story authors in history. In his essay, “Why We Crave Horror Movies” he opens up with the thesis on the first sentence, “I think that we’re all mentally ill; those of us outside the asylums only hide it a little better – and maybe not all that much better, after all” He later goes on to say “When we pay our four or five bucks and seat ourselves at tenth-row center in a theater showing a horror movie, we are daring the nightmare.” Basically what King is trying to get across is that horror movies are vital to mankind’s sanity. He gets his point off early and keeps reiterating it throughout the essays entirety. That point is that we NEED horror movies to let out our monstrous, and mentally ill side. A side in which according to Mr. King, we all have whether we believe it or not.…

    Stephen King’s work asserts macabre and grim moods to support that we are intrigued by horror films because ‘we’re all mentally ill’ (King, “Why We Crave Horror” 1). King uses “Strawberry Spring” to provide the reader a rush to show “that we are not afraid” of whatever grim scenes are to follow (King, “Why We Crave…” 1). He opens the story with a narrative of Gale Cerman’s death in which the narrator describes the unusually spine-chilling environment of the campus as “when night came the fog with it, moving silent and white” to lead up to the moment where a student found himself “dropping books on and between the sprawled legs of the dead girl lying…” (King, “Strawberry Spring” 1). With his use of morbid imagery and diction, King draws the reader into the following dark events…
