Experts pointed out that watching horror movies can reduce weight, in theory, there is a certain truth. Because when most people watch horror movies, their pulse rate increases, their blood pressure rises, and their blood flow speed in the body accelerates, which can indeed accelerate the metabolism of the human body and cause more energy consumption. But from the practical point of view, this method is not feasible, there are great hidden dangers to people's mental health. Every year, the hospital can receive patients with panic disorder caused by watching horror films, with various incentives. When the patients attack, the performance for a strong sense of fear and anxiety, women are more common than men.
Horror movies are not good for everyone
In fact, horror movies are not good for everyone. If the plot or picture is too exciting, the reaction of 'fight or escape' is too intense, which will produce side effects, such as cardiac arrest. Therefore, there are many reports of death due to watching horror films. American psychologists conducted a special survey on 150 college students in Michigan and Wisconsin.
Statistics show that: 85% of the respondents admitted that it was difficult to fall asleep on the night after watching the horror film, and 20% of them complained that their sleep quality had been affected for several months and felt panic. 76% of the respondents revealed that they had abnormal emotions and behaviors after watching the horror movies, and more than half of them could return to normal within a week, while another 25% claimed that the impact had not completely disappeared within a year. 65% of the respondents felt that they had become rather timid after watching the horror films, such as not going out alone at night or going to the seaside to swim, or even answering the phone call after midnight. 31% of the respondents admitted that they had become neurotic after watching horror movies, such as being often paranoid. Moreover, the younger the audience, the longer the negative impact of horror films is, the more serious the degree is.
From the medical point of view, horror films can make people's vision and hearing give strong stimulation, this stimulation into the human brain, make the human body's heart rate faster, faster breathing, vasoconstriction, blood pressure rise; In addition, due to the impact of horror pictures and music on the human body, it can also lead to an increase in the secretion of catecholamine in the human body, increase the instability of ECG, and easily cause serious arrhythmia. When watching the horror film, there may be only temporary discomfort for the healthy people, and there will be no life-threatening. But for the original cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, the situation is very different. It has been reported that sudden death occurs in the elderly when they are in great sorrow and joy, and when they are in serious panic; if there are potential cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (such as congenital cerebrovascular malformations, congenital heart diseases or genetic related heart diseases) in adolescents, accidents can also occur, such as inducing angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, cerebral vascular rupture, cerebral hemorrhage, etc.
Horror films not only have an impact on people's physiology, but also have a great impact on people's psychology, especially for those with unstable psychological quality, especially for teenagers. The negative influence of horror films on Teenagers' psychology has become prominent, and some even lead to serious behavior disorder. The so-called "great terror produces madness", that is, excessive terror can make people crazy and insane. Young people's body and mind are not mature, and they can't tell the truth from the false. They are easily confused and misled by the plot described in the film. A 10-year-old Australian girl was admitted to a mental hospital after watching the horror film "run for the road" at a birthday party. Doctors said her mental illness was related to watching the horror film. This is a very typical example of the impact of horror films on the mental and psychological aspects, so horror films should be 'not suitable for teenagers'.
