  • Universal Studios Halloween Horror Night: What makes it scary?

    704 Words  | 2 Pages

    Halloween is the time of year that most people loved the idea of being scared beyond belief. But nowadays it’s harder to be genuinely scared because it seems like some people have become accustomed to most horrifying things that relate to Halloween due to the fact that it is the same every year. Nonetheless every year amusement parks use Halloween as a marketing scheme to get people and their friends to come to their horror nights, and spend money on ridiculous overpriced items, which all present the same things; clowns, clowns, chainsaws, and more clowns. Yes we can all agree that clowns are scary, but there has to come a time where the ones coming up with these “horror nights” step back and realize that what they are doing is no longer working anymore. But alas there is someone out there who knows what they’re doing, and it quite possibly could have to do with the fact that they are connected to the movie studio that did invent the horror film genre. But what makes Universal Studios Halloween Horror night so sinister? Universal Studios has a way where they take you out of reality and place you in a horror movie where you encounter many horror mazes, and also by the way they attack your senses in unexpected ways.

  • The Scared Straight Program

    1537 Words  | 4 Pages

    The recent media obsession with the scared straight program, juvenile boot camps and other scare tactics has lead to the question as to whether they actually are beneficial or not in treating adolescent criminal recidivism. On television programs like Maury (Pauvich) the answer to treating the troubled young girls who are brought to the show is boot camp. Those in charge take these girls to prisons, dangerous streets at night and often morgues to make a visual argument as to where they will end up as a result of the path they've taken. They also go through a rigorous run with drill sergeants to break down their egos. Of course it only last one day as opposed to any length of time a judge would sentence, but they get a small taste of it. Without surprise, at the end of every program of this nature, all the girls are rehabilitated and promise to go back to school, quit drugs, stealing, prostituting, and stop the abusive behavior.

  • Abelard and Heloise

    1232 Words  | 3 Pages

    Time and again, history has created a star-crossed couple that overcomes all obstacles through the strength of love. Whether it is from Pyramus and Thisbe, Romeo and Juliet, or Jack and Rose, the only possibility to separate the couple is the death of one or both individuals. Love is defined in these relationships as fighting against all odds, class, society, and even family, in order to be with their loved one. While these stories may be fictional, history has presented a real case of star-crossed “lovers”, Peter Abelard and Heloise. This couple went to little length to fight society in trying to establish a relationship with one another. Although considered a love story to some, a relationship founded on lust, inability to fight for marriage, and union to the church, shatters the illusion of romance and shows the relationship for what it truly is, a lackluster liaison.

    Growing up in Colorado, I knew that my family originated from New Mexico but I had not realized the extent of my ancestor’s impact, on my mother’s side, on the development of the state of New Mexico. I remember as a little girl going to my grandparents’ house in Tucumcari, New Mexico and always wondering how they ended up in such a small town but never asked. As I got older I got more curious and therefore I started asking more questions, I then found out that my grandfathers’ family had lived in Tucumcari for a long time and my grandmothers’ family was originally from Silver City. My grandparents met at New Mexico State University and moved back to Tucumcari to help my great-grandparents with the family ranch after my grandfather finished college and they just never

  • Examples Of Infatuation In Romeo And Juliet

    1424 Words  | 3 Pages

    Society these days builds up a misconception towards what they think is the real meaning of true love or teenage infatuation. In my words, true love is a strong and ever-lasting love which requires sacrifice based on solemn decisions. While, teenage infatuation is teenagers making irresponsible choices made foolishly without the consideration of the consequences they might face. Therefore, in this instance Romeo and Juliet is a play that can define a great example of either true love or teenage infatuation. In Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare a miraculous writer that foreshadows horrific events, foreshadows the suffering of the “star-cross’d

    Frost conveys this theme with symbolism. The symbolism is not the physical paths the man must choose to take but the metaphorical one he needs to choose which way he wants his life to go down the same safe path he has been on the majority of his life or the unknown one in which he may experience great things or torment. This reminds me of Proverbs 14:12 (The Message) There is a way of life that looks harmless enough; look again - it leads straight to hell.

    To say a couple is star-crossed means that their relationship will not last and is cursed to not work out. However, this couple may have intense feelings for each other, but not be destined to be together. It is called star cross because people who believe in astrology think the stars control human feelings. That is of course an opinion and why Shakespeare wrote that Romeo and Juliet were star-crossed lovers.

  • Predetermined Destiny in Romeo and Juliet

    521 Words  | 2 Pages

    Predetermined destiny writes out our stories before we experience them and is essential to Romeo and Juliet. The star-cross’d lovers gig basically fueled the whole love-filled dramatic play. Although, Romeo and Juliet both learn this, the hard way, costing their lives, as their love was fated to end in death, unfortunately. In the prologue, lines 6-11 state, “A pair of star-crossed lovers take their life; Whose misadventures piteous overthrows, Do with their death bury their parents’ strife. The fearful passage of their parents’ rage, Which but their children’s end naught could remove” (Beers 807). Due to these lines 6-11, it proves that Romeo and Juliet’s destiny was already written previously in the stars above, and the pair of lovers could do nothing but face it, together, hand in hand, with all that they had left.

  • The Influence Of Horror Movies

    678 Words  | 2 Pages

    When you’re with your friends, one fun way to pass time is to watch a movie. But you probably have a long debate about which type of movies you want to watch. Some like romance some like comedy and others like horror movies. Horror movies are the latest trend amongst teenagers. Every while a horror movie is released in the theatres and they all make big hits, grossing a lot of money. Some people just cannot seem to get enough of violent, disgusting movies. They crave these movies like they crave food. In the past, horror movies were usually avoided, but today they are one of the most popular types of movies watched. This weird portent is accompanied by a really gruesome and sad phenomenon. Throughout history, the number of horror movies released increased, so did the number of real life crimes. But these crimes are abnormal in the way that they are mimicking the horror movies. We all heard the stories of the boys who tried to be like Chucky, horrifically killing a two year old, or the teenagers that brutally murdered a woman in an attempt to mimic Ghostface from the hit horror movie franchise Scream. As a result of these shocking murders, a lot of controversy and debates emerged discussing the role that horror movies played in the execution murders. Some blamed the movies and others said they had nothing to do with it. That said, one question has been the center of this problematic dilemma; Do horror movies create psychopaths, or do they rather push someone with inherent psychotic traits to commit a murder?

    “And sorry I could not travel both,”(line two), and that is because once you have made a decision and act upon it, you no longer can go back and change that decision. It becomes a decision you will have to live with every day of your life. You might think one day you can go back and travel the other road, but you know that will not happen. As he says, “Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how the way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.” (Line 13-15) He couldn't have said it better, as human's we all have a tendency to look back and wonder what would have happened if I had made a different decision. If I had said no to that choice that sent me to jail, how would I be living right now? The outcome of that decision is the reason I am living the way I do today. Robert Frost understood how people always look back and say what if I made a different decision and walked the other road. Even if you're still happy with the outcome of the road you went through, you can't help but satisfy your curiosity of the other road and ask yourself, what was on the road that I didn't

    Furthermore, the next stanza consists of the speaker continuing to reassure himself that he chose the correct path. However, if it is not the right path, he will have another chance to take the right road, “Oh, I kept the first for another day!” (13). In reality though, the speaker realizes that due to his age, he is not going to be afforded the opportunity to return to explore the other road. There is no turning back. The last two lines of the third stanza state, “Yet knowing how way leads on to way/ I doubted if I should ever come back” (14-15). The opportunity to take the other path will be

  • Courtly Love Essay

    1543 Words  | 4 Pages

    Then later he questions himself what is love, then he wants a kiss.This poem is a comparison to my topic and in many different ways, such as expressing the main characters love to the girl that he loves. One comparison is in line 2 and this is really saying that the girl that he loves has a true love coming for her and that the true love is him. Another example that the poem compares to my topic about love is in line 5 when it says journeys end in lovers meeting. This can relate to love because love can be a person meeting up with someone for the first time and fall in love instantly. In line 5 “Journeys end in lovers meeting”, this can be when the character meets with his loved one in the journey he went through will end because once they meet with each other they will fall in love. The contrast in this poem is that love is between two people, who have a strong feeling with each other. In this case, it’s really just the guy who is saying that he's the true love, he's the one in love, and there's no evidence of what the girl wants or how she feels. This poem is written in literally because the poem is straightforward and understandable. But also the poem is positive because of the character and the one he loves not to get into

  • Themes In The Road Not Taken By Robert Frost

    565 Words  | 2 Pages

    The poem titled “The Road Not Taken” is written by Robert Frost and is primarily about the decisions you make in life. Although the poet is writing about himself, considering a fork in the road, the theme of the poem is that you will always have tough choices in life but you can only do one at a time. In the poem, Robert Frost said that he doubts he will ever take that other road, and just like in real life when you make a decision you can’t always go back and change it. And you just live on wondering what that other road could have brought. The poem is implicitly expressing the poets regret and curiosity through the use of metaphor and imagery. What Robert Frost is trying to argue is that it is difficult for a person to be completely satisfied with the choices they make in life.
