SAW VS SCREAM
Society today has this infatuation with how much blood can spill from the human body. Ironic that civil rights laws are so strict now and the bar of being "humane", for example on death row. I feel that the reason that we love this bloodiness is because now it seem taboo. Killing is a big no no in society today. Yet another things to think of is in roman time and gladiators. Romans loved the blood spilling and yet they lived in a society that killed and conquered everything, it was their way of life. Now a days we don't live in a world like that but yet in a way we are not that different because as Rome had rules and laws that said one could not just kill another, we have the same rules. The movie Gladiator has a lot of blood, gore, and killing. Is it really any different than Saw and Scream? I feel its the taboo feeling that, If i cant kill then I will Watch it on the TV. The Saw and Scream movies are just that. But i understand that some people want to kill or some weird shit like that but that's a long and different path to look at.
