Chinese (traditional) ..... 此種電影類型意在引起觀眾的恐懼和驚駭,可作為情緒釋放和娛樂的一種方式。主題範圍從暴力、死亡、人造怪物,到來自其他世界的外星人、瘋狂、核能及天然災害皆有。在電影史的進程中,恐怖片乃與人類歷史同時演進,反映出當代重大事件和當前的恐懼。自西元1970年代晚期開始,某些恐怖片已經發展成系列電影,例如《月光光心慌慌》(Halloween)或《半夜鬼上床》(Nightmare on Elm Street),以延續受歡迎人物角色的傳奇故事。 |
Dutch ..... Filmgenre dat poogt schrikreacties en angstgevoelens teweeg te brengen bij de toeschouwer, als emotionele uitlaatklep en als entertainment. De onderwerpen variëren van geweld en dood, door de mens gecreëerde monsters en buitenaardse wezens tot waanzin en kern- of natuurrampen. In de filmgeschiedenis zien we dat het horrorgenre de geschiedenis van de mensheid volgt, omdat actuele gebeurtenissen en angsten worden gebruikt. Sinds eind jaren 70 groeiden bepaalde horrorfilms uit tot complete filmseries - zoals 'Halloween' en 'Nightmare on Elm Street' - waarin de verhalen van de populaire personages verder worden gevolgd. |
