0:05

people of brighton liked the most let's

0:07

go

0:09

[Music]

0:18

what is your favorite scary movie

0:20

i'd say

0:23

some people don't think it's scary some

0:24

people think it's scary but they're

0:26

definitely hallows because it is a bit

0:28

violent and what harry potter the

0:30

deathly hallows ah okay and um which

0:33

which is just near the end of the harry

0:35

potter sort of story the deathly hallows

0:38

yeah yeah and then

0:40

what is your favorite scary movie um i

0:43

would say my favorite scary movie is

0:45

probably

0:46

the shining

0:47

or

0:48

i don't know if sean of the dead counts

0:51

kind of comedy and scary yeah yeah

0:53

what is your favorite

0:56

scary movie well my favorite scary or

0:59

horror movie would be shining by stephen

1:02

kubrick it's a stanley fabric

1:05

based on stephen king's

1:07

book and

1:09

why well because it's not like plain

1:13

skir

1:14

scary jump movie and

1:16

there is actual

1:18

like atmosphere and intention growing

1:22

and

1:23

you can really feel what the main

1:26

characters well what's happening in

1:28

their heads and how they change and

1:31

yeah you don't know where's it's coming

1:33

to and yeah you also feel that this

1:36

hotel this panorama hotel it's really

1:38

like a living organism that tries to

1:41

you know capture the

1:43

the victims inside and so yeah it's i

1:46

think it's it's

1:47

this is the

1:48

really rare situation where the movie is

1:51

maybe even better than the book yeah

1:54

what is your favorite scary movie i

1:56

don't actually like scary movies right

1:58

and uh why is that

2:01

um

2:02

i i really don't know i just don't like

2:04

being scared i could never watch

2:05

crimewatch as a child like my parents

2:06

always watched it and i could never

2:08

watch it and can you just describe crime

2:10

what should be three months that's

2:11

really funny it basically um used to be

2:14

on tuesdays at nine o'clock i remember

2:16

um it was um once a month and it was

2:20

basically reenactments of crimes trying

2:23

to find the people that committed the

2:24

crime so they used to put a lot of

2:26

e-fits on so i would always be there

2:27

with the pillow putting it in front of

2:29

my face whenever the ethics came on

2:30

because they used to give me nightmares

2:32

what is your favorite scary movie harry

2:35

potter oh yeah but there's lots of harry

2:37

potters

2:38

and probably the last one what's do you

2:41

know what the name of that is

2:43

um

2:44

part two oh really do you know what

2:46

we've we had uh someone else say exactly

2:49

this film i mean like about 20 minutes

2:51

ago i

2:53

quite enjoyed the

2:54

not the movie but the tv series american

2:57

horror story but

2:59

some seasons were better some were worse

3:01

but it was quite it was quite a while

3:03

ago when i when i've seen that so i

3:05

don't remember like which season in

3:07

particular i enjoyed right now what is

3:09

your favorite scary movie

3:12

i must admit i'm a bit of a wet wipe

3:14

when it comes to scary films and i find

3:17

that i get scared very easily having

3:19

been brought up in a haunted house um

3:22

but yeah i'd say my favorite scary movie

3:24

is the shining

3:26

ah classic yes i'm going old school

3:29

before we ask why you just completely

3:31

just kind of glossed over the fact that

3:33

you lived in a haunted house

3:35

yeah well it's it's not every day that

3:37

you um yeah you sort of bring that to

3:40

the forefront but yeah we lived in this

3:41

very

3:42

now you don't need to touch that because

3:44

it's a

3:46

um

3:47

yeah we lived in the sort of decaying

3:49

mansion that my parents bought in the

3:51

early 70s and

3:53

a famous writers who lived there with

3:55

two

3:56

mentally unhinged aunts and um and yeah

3:59

it was haunted basically wow so it was

4:02

the place to hang out with in your lunch

4:03

breaks to get scared my house so yeah

4:06

so you already were in this world

4:09

of like weirdness something being very

4:12

open to like paranormal and now i'm

4:14

understanding the shining yes yeah

4:17

little bit because our house was wasn't

4:20

the size of a hotel it makes me sound

4:21

like i was

4:22

kanye west or one of the conditions but

4:24

we weren't we weren't um from posh stock

4:26

but we just lived in this big house

4:27

english videos

5:03

you told me before that it was casper

5:06

and it really scared you

5:08

a little bit yes why is that what what

5:11

happened in the movie that scared you um

5:17

i can't really remember i can't remember

5:20

i think it might have been when all

5:22

ghosts came out the furniture and

5:23

surprised the the dad

5:26

it scared me made you jump a bit no yes

5:29

and what what happens in this movie that

5:31

makes it so scary well

5:33

first of all like voldemort nearly wants

5:35

to kill everybody

5:39

and

5:40

he wants to kill one boy and like loads

5:42

of other people in a massive school

5:45

right i saw like a really big model of

5:47

it now i thought like of the school yeah

5:50

and

5:51

it was like

5:53

massive and then i thought how big the

5:55

school must be where was this you saw it

5:58

it was in the wonder bro studio harry

6:00

potter so you're a big fan right yeah

6:02

[Laughter]

6:04

would you say like you're a horror fan

6:05

then

6:06

no not really not really necessarily no

6:08

because the shining is kind of uh a

6:10

nerd's

6:12

horror film i think i think i love

6:13

stephen king book so i like i like the

6:14

book and i think i love the the way it's

6:16

filmed it's really good

6:18

and what about the film is scary then

6:21

i think just the tension that builds up

6:23

um this kind of atmosphere of it i first

6:25

gave films that are kind of i don't like

6:27

jump out kind of gory ones but the

6:29

shiny's got a good kind of tension

6:31

building and the kind of psychological

6:33

drama of it i did once watch this gary

6:35

movie i went to the cinema to watch um

6:38

which one was it

6:41

halloween h2o i think it was something

6:43

like that so i have watched them in the

6:45

past a long long time ago not not since

6:48

i was probably 20. but um yeah halloween

6:51

h2o was very underwhelming that wasn't

6:52

scary at all but really

6:54

less scary than crimewatch

6:56

well i was younger when i watched

6:58

crimewatch so maybe yeah i have a i used

7:01

to watch his parents were probably 999.

7:03

yes

7:06

i was terrified of that there was this

7:08

overriding tension of at some point

7:10

someone is going to die and somebody

7:12

gets stuck down a well always

7:15

when you're a bit older right and you

7:17

can watch films that are for like 15s or

7:19

18s

7:20

do you think you'll go and watch all

7:22

these like really like properly scary

7:24

movies

7:25

nice

7:27

to stick to harry potter yeah

7:31

but what is it about that film that

7:32

makes it so scary what's the scariest

7:34

bit well it's the scariest bit where

7:37

like harry potter and voldemort like

7:39

start fighting with each other all right

7:42

with their wants yeah yeah and why is

7:44

this what why is this good because he

7:46

might die

7:47

yeah because there's like a lot of

7:49

people start bleeding and stuff all

7:51

right yeah

7:52

because like buildings fall over and i

7:55

are you someone that likes to watch

7:56

scary movies is it

7:57

do you look for them

7:59

no

8:00

no you don't know them at all

8:02

no it just feels like someone's going to

8:03

grab me when i go to bed

8:04

[Laughter]

8:06

would you say that you're people who

8:08

like

8:09

enjoy this feeling of watching a scary

8:12

film this tension building and you know

8:14

a little bit like how people enjoy

8:15

roller coasters

8:17

yeah i'd say that i like them but i also

8:20

watched so many horror movies that very

8:22

rarely i see this day i i can feel this

8:25

tension actually so yeah because uh also

8:28

many horror movies are very predictable

8:30

and you can easily tell what's gonna

8:31

happen in like in next 10 seconds so

8:34

but yeah on rare occasions you can you

8:37

can watch some like you know hidden gem

8:40

somewhere and

8:41

and enjoy like i really also enjoyed

8:43

like blair witch project the first part

8:46

yeah yeah it was very innovative and

8:49

surprising and

8:51

so yeah and also the spanish film wreck

8:55

wow yeah so

8:57

yeah from time to time you can really

8:59

find

9:00

a very good horror movie you're an

9:02

aficionado of horror movies i think

9:04

what you just said

9:06

yeah and it's usually you know the lower

9:08

the budget the better

9:10

yeah that's actually a really good uh

9:12

tip for people looking for a good horror

9:14

film yeah and less teenagers running

9:17

around

9:20
