While doing research on my top three picks of genre, I was able to bring it down to two choices. However, this created a dilemma for me so now I have to decide which one would be best for my Portfolio project. To make my selection a bit easier I decided to dig deep and take an extensive look at both comedy and horror.
GENRE- Comedy
What makes comedy good-
Comedy is such a famous genre because well of course its funny… but more then that comedy has values that make it relatable. By adding issues that people battle with on the daily and making it a sense of humor it allows the viewers to see a reflection of themselves or their experiences being funny. This helps people not overthink every little thing and enjoy everything the world throws at them. While watching comedy movies, it is easier to create stronger bonds with the people you’re with by having the same sense of humor.
(Hangover- 2009)
Hangover, for example, is one of the biggest comedy movies ever. It’s about a group of friends and one of them is getting married, before the marriage they throw a bachelors party. Everything and I mean everything goes wrong but despite this they have a blast and it created an even bigger bond between them.
GENRE- Horror
What is scary about horror films?
Horror movies can have an exhilarating and a rewarding experience. This is because they provide a thrilling escape of reality while still being in their own home or in a safe place. Many people enjoy horror, whether it’s because of the storytelling or because of the insane adrenaline rush you get while watching the movie. Although scary, horror movies can help build a resilience for things that give them anxiety and allow them to learn how to cope. Like comedy, horror allows for friends and family to create a bigger bond by experiencing these insane moments and emotions all together.
(Smile- 2022)
Smile, for instance, is a crazy horror movie that seems all normal until it doesn’t. While watching this movie people tend to feel scared, excited, confused and so many other emotions at once. While watching this movie with other people they tend to become closer together due to the emotions drawn from the film. The unsettling atmosphere builds tension and confusion to what’s going on. The movie was a commercial success, resonating with audiences who appreciated its mixture of psychological depth and supernatural horror.
I chose to follow through with Horror. I decided this because horror has unique film openings filled with suspense, fear, thrill, and tension. Horror films in general offer a unique and compelling form of entertainment and are a great way to bond with other individuals on a different level that comedy can’t compare with.
