The three films, “Nosferatu”, “The
Shining”, and “The Conjuring” all try to create a sense of terror. The most
recent films obviously do a better job but considering the fact that one of
these films was made in the early twentieth century it still has a great sense
of terror and suspense. The film “Nosferatu” wasn’t the scariest film I have
seen by far but with the technology they had back then the film was probably
terrifying. The way that they used music to signify suspense is the greatest
thing that they did to make it horrifying.
In
“The Shining” the way that they made it scary was they used a creepy guy with
an ax to make it scarier. Whenever he was close to somebody he was trying to
get the music would go up and he would say something that in a normal context
wouldn’t be scary. For example he used the three little pigs story to create
suspense and to make the scene creepier. “The Conjuring” is an absolutely
horrifying film. The actors do such a good job at making it feel real that it
feels like you are there living in the house with them. The special effects are
incredibly real and the music feels like something that is written by the devil
himself. Overall, all of these films use music to create suspense and most
suspense scenes are in a bedroom in the dead of night. The most terrifying film
is “The Conjuring” because everything in it feels so real. The actors almost
seem personally terrorized by the events that happen. Just the fact that it
says it is based on a true story adds a bit more creepiness to the whole story.
