Meditated Sex

The movie I selected to watch was Nightmare on Elm Street (most recent one). This movie had a lot of sexuality in it. From the cast to the clothes, to the jokes that Freddy made, everything had sexual undertones. It was a very dark type of sexuality in it because the film dealt with Freddy, who was a child molester. You didn't actually see instances of the abuse going on, but there was innuendo. The movie kept people wondering whether or not this man was wrongfully killed, or if there was truth behind the accusations. There was a lot of sexuality in the way freddy interacted with the main girl in the movie, the one he caled his "favorite student". Towards the end he got a hold of her and was very sexual and forceful. She fought back and never gave in. I think that the remake of this movie is a lot different than the original. I was surprised to find so much sexuality in this movie. Everything they could make sexual they did. By the way the girl dressed before she went to bed, everything seemed a little shorter and tighter than you would usually think to wear. I feel that this was going to be a sexy-scary kind of film from the beginning and seeing the cast. Most scary movies nowadays have a sexy cast to sometimes make up for a crappy script. I was not surprised at what i saw in the movie. I knew from the commercials it was going to be kind of sexy, and even less scary. I do not think everyone should have access to these kinds of films because children and even some adults may model in some of the forceful behavior like Freddy. Some adults may see things like this movie and have more sexually aggressive behaviors, they may experience the disinhibition theory and totally become obsessed with these sexually aggressive tendencies. Like the theory of indirect or selective influences says, everyone interprets things in the media differently so there is no way of knowing the reaction to different audiences. I am glad that no one gave into the coercion because that would have made it even worse for younger viewing audiences, and older audiences as well. young children may think it is ok to go out and terrorize people as long as they don't get caught. I feel that horror films in which the bad guy dies, or is defeated but comes back is not a good message to send out there. It's like the bad guy always wins no matter how many people try to stop them, it will never work.
