    To start off, the most obvious aspect of the horror genre that is in this film is vampires as they are a supernatural creature. The Vampires in the film are what you would expect; blood-sucking beasts with their sharp teeth, which sleep upside down, cast no reflection and who are afraid of sunlight. But that’s not all of it.…

    The theme of “The Monsters are Due on Maple Street” is that the mind of man can lead to the destruction and Rod tried to warn his audience about jumping to conclusions. In scene 3, sentence 2, it states, “there are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, and prejudices, found only in the minds of men” (428). The mind is an extension of our body and when suspicion is introduced, thoughts become a selfish action as you value yourself over others. A thought can lead to suspicion that leads to hatred and that leads to destructive actions. Scene 3 also states, “The thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat as a fallout for the children, and the children unborn. Your actions today can create a fallout for everyone today and in the future.…

    Is it real or is it fake?”The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street” is a teleplay about how all power on Maple Street seemingly stops for unknown reasons after something flies over the street that looks like a meteor. After the power goes out it doesn’t take long for everything to go horribly wrong and all of it just because a child says that it's a monster and everybody believes him. Everyone thinks the other is a monster that has shut of the power and because of the suspicion a man dies, which doesn’t make the situation any better.I believe that the plot is unrealistic in “The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street” because Les Goodmans car starts all by itself , aliens talk at the end of the story, and everybody…

    According to “The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street”, it’s probably your neighbor. This play is about a group of people who live on Maple Street. After the power is out for a few hours, they start to panic. They eventually begin to blame each other, and start to get violent. They act like children and blamed aliens. They also killed a man because they thought it was aliens. Also, Tommy is fourteen, but acts like he’s six or seven. This is very inaccurate to what would’ve actually happened in a power outage.…

    Hopper's Nighthawks

    • 702 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Hopper chose to paint a scene located at a sharply-angled street-corner, rather than at one of New York's many right-angled intersections. This choice was not unusual for Hopper, who painted a number of other scenes of this kind of corner (see Office at Night (1940)). A sharp corner gave him the opportunity to display his subjects from a nearly frontal point of view, and also allowed him to display the dimly visible street scene behind the patrons. Hopper often painted scenes in which a part of the exterior view could be seen through two panes of glass. But the shape of the diner in Nighthawks, when seen from Hopper's chosen angle (which is also the point of view of a passer-by walking past on the sidewalk), allows this second glass surface to fill the entire centre of the painting. The further pane…

    Haunted High Analysis

    I expected to be extremely petrified with fear and wishing I hadn’t stayed. I genuinely thought Psycho was a terrific film. It wasn’t filled with gore and jump scares similar to current movies in the horror genre are. I was still sinking into my seat every time the music filled me with suspense, yet I was never hiding from the absolute horror that I had anticipated. I’m sure the few violent scenes would’ve been considered gory when Psycho came out, although nowadays, the effects are almost laughable. These outdated effects helped me survive the movie without cringing yet never did they take away from the film. After viewing this famous cinematic piece for myself, I understand why this film has become extremely iconic and is commonly referenced in pop culture today. This film was absolutely phenomenal and I will probably even watch it again. Haunted High wasn’t close to any cultural event I have ever done. I have been to other Global Ed sponsored movies, however Haunted High was different. This cultural event truly put me out of my comfort zone and forced me to try something new. I am extremely glad that I did and I would highly recommend that others attend Haunted High and watch Psycho, especially if you’re not quite into the horror genre. Psycho has showed me that just cause the video production is labeled as horror, doesn’t imply that I’ll hate it. Watching Psycho may have even allowed me to open my mind and I might even consider watching a different horror…

    Such as, Victor killing animal in the zoo or even Igor find a dead body in the freezer. Still the film had a very uplifting feel to it because of Igor and his improved way of life. Sadly, many tragic things happen in this film and there are some scenes in the film that are worthy of begin labeled a horror or thriller. Though, I found some of those parts of the film highly unnecessary. Such as, the presentation for the first monster it ran off and Igor chased after. Than Igor lost track of it room that is when the movie turned into a horror. That did not seem to fit with what was shown up to that point. However, it still got my heart pumping in fear for Igor.…

    Affirmative action is the broad spectrum of policies designed to redress inequalities in employment and education through a system of preferences to minorities according to Ellen Bailey of Yale University. It was originally designed to help improve opportunities for African Americans during the civil rights movement; however it soon grew to include other minorities groups and women too. In the United States where individuals in certain social, racial, gender and economic groups have distinct advantages to education and jobs, affirmative action provides important opportunities that would otherwise be closed to many people who do not belong to these groups. Until each person is allowed to pursue his or her goals unfettered by institutional and personal discrimination, affirmative action is absolutely necessary.…

    In the ‘60s version, the residents of Maple Street were probably once good friends. Then fear took over their minds, which lead to them attacking, and even killing, one another. In the 2003 remake, the people were rather collected and one big group. Then when the thought of terrorism was raised, people sought a scapegoat, which ended up with them destroying a house, and probably killing the family inside. The true monsters on Maple Street, were in fact,…

    Every person has there own individual ways in which they view the world. This is like a pair of glasses, unique and individual. Each pair of glasses has their own lenses that affect how someone can see through them. In the same way, there are many factors that affect how someone can see the world. Whether it’s a place, an experience, people, or the government these all can shape how the world is viewed. In the novel The Drifters by James A. Michener, every character faced different things that changed their view of the world. One character named Cato, changed his view because of race, and through some of the places he has been to. Another character named Gretchen, had some experiences and met some people who were factors that influenced her view on the world. Some factors that changed my view of the world were my past, and the entertainment that the media shows. Different people live different lives; they won’t always see the world in the same way like Cato, Gretchen, and me. We all have different views on what the world is like.…

    These films usually focus on the ghosts, demons, spirits, miracles, ideas of extraordinary phenomenon or the occult (knowledge of hidden or paranormal activities). This sub-genre mainly reveals the fantasy and non-real world things which bring about more horror and terror among the audiences. “The Orphanage” (2007) Is a supernatural movie in which a women brings her family back to her childhood home, which used to be an orphanage for handicapped children. Before long, her son starts to communicate with an invisible new friend.
