Psychological Horror - Reaction Shots Discussion Prompt (Patreon)

Hey there horror fans!  I just watched season one of The Terror and it's October and I'm feeling ready for some spooky vibes!

This time we're talking Psychological Horror with special returning guest Matthew Walden! Think Silent Hill more than Resident Evil .  The Shining, or The Witch, Silence of the Lambs... anything that spooks the brains more than the eyes... if that makes sense lol.

What is the difference between Psychological Horror and good old fashioned Horror?

What are some of your favorite Psychological Horror (PH) films?

Who are some of the best creators of PH?

Is PH an evolution of more traditional horror?

Are there any commonalities in filmmaking among the greatest PH films?

What are some movies that aimed for psychological terror but missed the mark?

How important are Reaction Shots in PH films? (Hey!  That's the name of the show!)

How does Time factor in to PH films differently than more traditional forms of horror?

Which films successfully merged other genres into PH?  I can think of a few great Sci-Fi PH movies, for example.

Anything else you'd like us to discuss?
