HORROR ZONE

If movies are the dreams of the mass culture... horror movies are the nightmares" — Stephen King, Danse Macabre Horror is an ancient art form. We have tried to terrify each other with tales which trigger the less logical parts of our imaginations for as long as we've told stories. From the ballads of the ancient world to modern urban myths, audiences willingly offer themselves up to sadistic storytellers to be scared witless, and they are happy to pay for the privilege. Theories abound as to why this is so; do we derive basic thrills from triggering the rush of adrenalin which fear brings, or do horror stories serve a wider moral purpose, reinforcing the rules and taboos of our society and showing the macabre fate of those who transgress? Horror movies have long served both purposes. In this channel we deliver thrills by the hearse load, as well as telling stories of the dark, forbidden side of life (and death). We also provide a revealing mirror image of the anxieties of our time.

NO REST FOR THE WEARY. THERE ARE OVER 2000 FILMS TO WATCH

“Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die. “ Mel Brooks The very first movies to be produced was Thomas Edison's kinetoscope of his assistant Fred Ott in Record of a Sneeze. This could also be considered the first to show a comedic element. Comedic films began to appear in significant numbers during the era of silent films, prior to the 1930s. These were mainly focused on visual humor, including slapstick and burlesque In this Channel we will provide a full cross section of film comedies from Chaplin to Robert Williams, from slapsticks to Shakespeare.
