1. Abstract:

As we know westerners are relatively direct and like to show their feelings. But the oriental are reserved, focusing on atmosphere building and

psychological hint is the biggest characteristic of eastern horror films. The western horror films are based on the fear of reality. The eastern films are more based on the horror of the unknown affairs, our inner secret feelings and the transaction of unpredictability. So why western and eastern have so big differences? The differences are most from the differences of culture. And what cause the differences in culture? I think it’s the geographic location.

2. Introduction:

In our lives, movies are essential things and there are many kinds of movies. Horror movie is one of the most important types. We have seen many horror movies no matter western or eastern. There are many differences between western and eastern horror movies.

First,as we know westerners are relatively direct and like to show their feelings. So, they regard the stimulation of visions and feelings as important. They usually use the comprehensive application of Make-up, cosmetic and sound effect. So, you can see many scenes have organs with blood on it, and I think sometimes they are more lousy than scary. I think the most typical horror films must be the ;;and the .The vision is more intuitionistic, and terror effects are in the ghosts and monsters. Here are some pictures of . And you can see the monster is very horrific. Here are some pictures of .

But the oriental are reserved, focusing on atmosphere building and psychological hint is the biggest characteristic of eastern horror films. That’s to say, the fear is the repression and control from the bottom of heart and terror is a sensible without considerable things, like . In that movie, there’s no normal contact among people. People in the movies always deviate from the normal life.

Secondly, the western horror films are based on the fear of reality.

The typical film must be , which produced by a Japanese director and an American director successively. is much eviler and the stimulations of visions are obvious after the American reproduced it.

Thirdly, with the development of the technology, the industrial variation and technology panic become a piece of lingering shadow over their head. People begin to introspect the crisis which the extreme civilization and following the development of science blindly brought. So, the western horror films are often concerning these kinds of fear, like , . These are some pictures of the and . Some people may say they

can’t be horror movies strictly, but they can already explain the character of western horror movies.

The whole eastern culture system is affected by the Confucianism. But with the development of economy, egoism, money first, moral decay, disregard law and discipline and so on are increasing the impact of traditional culture. So the horror film is appeared, and they show the modern ethical crisis and emotional anxiety in atrans mutative and exaggerated form. Here are some pictures of the eastern horror films. From the pictures, we can’t see any high technology, but we can feel the gloomy atmosphere among the people.

Above all, the differences between western and eastern horror movies have been stated. But what’s causethe differences? I think it’s the differences in culture that cause them. And what causes the culture difference is the geographic location.

The oriental lived in theHuanghe Valley and the Yangzi Valley. It’s a wide plain, and people settled down in someplace. They lived and farm there from generation to generation. That’s to say the oriental were lived in a stable environment. People didn’t like move and prefer to settle down. That’ make people didn’t like to make public. So oriental create the Confucianism, which advocate connotation and restrained.

But as for the western people, where they lived were full of mountains and hills. What’s more, the climate is not fit to farm. That makes them move from one place to another to find more things that can hold them to live on. This kind of lifestyle makes them direct and likes to show their feelings. In modern times, many Europeans moved to America and then, people from all over the world moved to America, which makes American culture,become more and more diversified. People lived in America have to communicate with other people to know other’s culture and belief in order to get along well with others. This also makes western especially Americans’ characters are more direct.

Because of the differences in culture, western people and eastern people have a lot of differences in character. And these differences make the horror movies between western and eastern be quite different.What’s more, makes lots of things different.
