Nowadays, thrilling horror films have become a new favorite among urbanites. Closing the door, unplugging the phone and cell phone, and peering into a horror movie have become a favorite pastime for many urbanites. In addition to releasing pressure and pursuing stimulation, exploring the reasons for watching horror movies has become a deep-seated reason for urban people to love horror movies in the face of real humanity.
Xiao Zhao, a white-collar worker who often watches horror films, told reporters that the main reason is that he feels particularly tired from work and feels particularly able to release pressure after watching a film.
Zong Chunshan, director of the Beijing Psychological Society, said, "When watching horror movies, people are in a state of extreme tension, and after watching them, their mood is suddenly relaxed. The pursuit of this experience of relaxation after tension is a common state of mind that many people enjoy watching horror movies."
Zong Chunshan said that seemingly virtual plots in horror movies often project certain problems in real society, reflecting some primitive intentions of people, and expressing people's true humanity in an unnatural way. Therefore, this kind of story that reflects people's true human nature not only brings people deep fear, but also satisfies people's subconscious needs.
Zong Chunshan also said that due to the particularity of the plot in the horror film, it is not suitable for all people to watch. For example, younger children with poor discrimination are not suitable for watching horror movies. Because he is likely to imitate some illusory plots in the film, he may have a wrong understanding of the real society.
