“Why We Crave Horror Movies” by Stephen King

I disagree with the theory exposed by Stephen King in his essay “Why We Crave Horror Movies”. He said that people need to watch horror movies in order to keep them sane or satisfy their evil instincts. With this assumption, the author is encouraging this type of movies, which from my point of view are more insane than healthy. These movies promote violence and harmful emotions and can contribute to have a corrupted our society. I do not like horror movies because they are full of abominations and atrocities that are present in real life. Human beings are in need of peace and love, so we have to stimulate these feelings if we want to have more sensitive, compassionate and benevolent individuals.
