Just Jamie Presents "The Hidden Evil"
2The Hidden Evil took around a week to make on and off and lots of mess to be cleaned up with afterwards. I originally came up with the idea whilst being in Whitby with my partner - home of traditional horror! I purposely filmed in Black and White and decided to include no voice acting from myself but rather used a range of sound effects which gave more of an impact. The short film was filmed entirely on my Samsung S21 whilst using a mobile editing app to add sounds and general editing. Happy Halloween all! I aim to make a sequel of this for Halloween 2023 or before! And of course it will be 100% cliché just like this one!
Horror films often explore dark subject matter and may deal with transgressive topics or themes. Broad elements include monsters, apocalyptic events, and religious or folk beliefs. Cinematic techniques used in horror films have been shown to provoke psychological reactions in an audience.
Horror films have existed for more than a century. Early inspirations from before the development of film include folklore, religious beliefs and superstitions of different cultures, and the Gothic and horror literature of authors such as Edgar Allan Poe, Bram Stoker, and Mary Shelley. From origins in silent films and German Expressionism, horror only became a codified genre after the release of Dracula (1931). Many sub-genres emerged in subsequent decades, including body horror, comedy horror, slasher films, supernatural horror and psychological horror. The genre has been produced worldwide, varying in content and style between regions. Horror is particularly prominent in the cinema of Japan, Korea, Italy and Thailand, among other countries.
Despite being the subject of social and legal controversy due to their subject matter, some horror films and franchises have seen major commercial success, influenced society and spawned several popular culture icons.
