Carrie By Stephen King Analysis

A 21 year old pregnant women was spun around and someone tried to attack her, a Pit Bull named Cash defended the women by biting the man, he got scared and he had run off. Cash was a friendly dog and has never bit anyone before, but he instinctively knew that the man was dangerous. Some people hear stories of Pit Bulls saving their owners life or them saving another animal, although they are reported in the media they are not heavily covered. They only like to cover the stories where Pit Bulls have attacked a person or where they have lashed out, therefore they are betrayed as an angry breed and “brainless killing machines”. Even though Pit bulls have the highest number of attacks on people than any other dog breed, that doesn 't mean that the

In “The Most Dangerous Game” there is an eerie, ominous tone to it. Zaroff helps add onto this by explaining about his hunting. “My dear fellow, said the general, there is one thing that can. But you can’t mean- - gasped Rainsford” (Connell 221). This tone is making you eerie because at this point Rainsford learns that Zaroff is hunting people.

Richard Connell does an exceptional job with incorporating the theme into his writing, and by this citation, he reveals to us the moral of The Most Dangerous Game; you must have empathy for all living creatures. Since High Noon also has several themes, but they are vastly different, it is quite difficult to compare the two. Because the movie takes place in a lawless town, most of the messages include the topic of society, such as who has the right to kill in law and order and the responsibility to your community versus your own self-interest. "I say we 're not peace officers here! This ain 't our job..."(Foreman 114).

In Stephen Kings’s essay “Why We Crave Horror,” Stephen King challenges the sanity of mankind becaude they like to watch scary movies. However, humans may actually have other reasons. Thousands of years ago, human kind was nothing but primitive creatures living in caves and hunting. They had plenty of opportunity to release adrenaline- escaping from predators. In modern times, however,

Everything about Jaws is just a little different and it made a movie that I couldn't keep from watching and deserves every award it won. This movie brought a lot of the thriller aspects used in Hitchcock films like Psycho and The Birds. The editing style created a great thriller with many horror aspects that many films use to this

I also like his adventurous side, Like adventuring further into the tomb just to learn more even more, though he knew how dangerous it was Evaluation I was pretty disappointed by this book. Hardly any action. I have read a lot of books by frank peretti and he usually like to write horror books. I guess that was what i was hoping to find in this book. I like adventure book.

The fictional novel, Speak, is written by Laurie Halse Anderson. This book is a dramatic type, about teen depression, fear, and loneliness. It’s about a girl, who is a victim, but is accused of being the criminal. This is a story of Melinda, who lost her normal life due to a life changing, daunting experience, caused by a foolish boy, and she will never be the same. Melinda Sordino, she is in her High School, Merryweather high, and she is also the narrator of the story.

For instance, the very first sentence of Hollinger’s essay starts off with this quote, “As Stephen Neale suggests, an intimate relationship seems to exist among the filmic presentation of the horror monster, the castration anxiety it evokes, and the cinematic representation of the female form.” (Hollinger pg. 243 of the Monsters book), in which she uses to intrigue the reader and to give the reader an idea about the work. Hollinger tells the reader that Neale thinks that the usual origin of a monster in a film is due to a relationship that went wrong and also claims that men are more vulnerable to certain anxieties. The placement of her reference to Neale’s essay allows the reader to conduct an idea of what the essay is going to be about and makes the reader think about what is more threatening between feminine monsters or masculine monsters. I think it was creative of her to reference a well-known philosopher and that she was able to use it to have the reader thinking about movies they’ve watched and figure out whether they’ve actually seen any movie at all with a feminine monster and if they did, then they’d compare them to the masculine monster causing the reader to think even more!

The dog’s viciousness reflects and represents Bill’s own animal-like brutality. For example, when Oliver tries escaping Mr. Fagin’s house, Nancy stops Bill from letting his dog catch Oliver. This is because it is known that the dog will be very vicious to the point he can kill Oliver. Not long after, Bill tries to kill his dog, since it is well known that the two are usually are together, hence giving his presence away. Thus, this represents that

Stephen King says that we all enjoy horror movies even if some of us don't like horror. The author give important quotes that provide the important message in the story. “I think that we’re all mentally ill; those of us outside the asylums only hid is better, and maybe not all that much better, after all.” The main idea is that everybody has some type of instantly inside them. King believes that we are all crazy and violence allows us to imagine sick things which is what we secretly crave. Everyone shares a bind together which inv over love, positivity and peace.
