10 Things That Happen When Couples Watch Horror Movies

It’s so exciting when a couple decides to watch a movie and one particular genre is set for the weekend. So when it’s time for horror, it definitely gives them the chills but also makes them excited for the night. Dealing with all the jump-scares and moaning about them is completely normal but what if we really get into all the things that happen when we watch a movie with the wifey?

Ugh! This is scarier than the movie itself. There’s a variety of movies on Netflix but you can’t seem to really decide what to watch. Well there’s always a wish deep down in our hearts that the movie should be extremely scary to get really enjoyable but with these thoughts tickling, horror movies are mostly judged based on their covers and it gets quite annoying because almost all covers are not good enough. So what do we stick to? Chucky? Or SAW?

What is horror without a dark room? Well it is completely rare for anyone to watch a movie at daylight so the option sticks to mid-night on Fridays and turning off the lights give the movie that 3D effect of feeling the story deep inside our veins. Well, the movie is just intended to suck the souls out of us but don’t worry, at least you guys are two in number.

In all the chills and creepy vibes from the movie, it gets quite hard to cope up but it’s also interesting when you notice you guys aren’t helping each other with recovering from the demons screaming at your face, so you take refuge under the cozy duvet.

Well it wasn’t your fault when you both weren’t able to decide on what to watch, well that’s because most of the horror movies follow the same storyline, without any new concept of making it super interesting to watch; that’s probably because everything is focused on getting the screams out of you. So once you get stuck in the same type of movie once again, you start getting more and more numb to the scary scenes and start predicting what’s going to come next. But hey, there are amazingly unpredictable movies sometimes which are hard to find but gives us an amazing story.

And when it’s so annoying to see the protagonist over-acting over a glass of water falling down. Such hyperbolic scenes are nauseating to watch, turning us off all over making us lose the excitement. Most of the horror movies focus of scaring you and in an effort to do so; they put the acting part at last in their priority list which makes the movie bland after a while.

Have you been in a situation where you’re focusing on the protagonist doing her work at night and it doesn’t give you a single hint that a soul sucking demon’s going to pop up in the next second and it happens? Well following the scream and jumps we experience, there’s an embarrassment which makes us laugh out loud and well, we also hope the neighbors didn’t wake up.

Imagine yourself engrossed in a good horror movie which is just about to hit climax and you’re curious about the unpredictable story as well as hoping that the context is different unlike the first horror movie you watched with your hubby. Suddenly you feel something on your neck which makes you shake the house with shivering shrieks. Ah well, the hubby must be concerned about curing his ear drums now; he had to scare you.

6.

There’s one thing common about every horror movie and that is a living version of stupid; the girl which walks down the alley to meet a white eyes demon. Well it’s a fact that horror movies are a struggle to watch every time and one of the struggles we have to do is to scream at the protagonist for not entering that room.

5.

“PAUSE! I have to drink water.”

Well what do you do next? Obviously, you turn on the lights because the horror movie, despite being too obvious has scared you and you start thinking that a demon will grab your leg while you are on your way to the kitchen. Take my advice, keep water in the room before watching the movie next time; it will save you from feeling like the protagonist you were screaming on a while ago.

4.

What’s a movie without some crunchy pack of chips and soft-drink? Well sometimes you are so engrossed in it that a jump-scare makes you jump like a bunny. Well you totally forget that there already is a pack of chips in your hands; now the blame is on that demon to cause this mess.

3.

Horror movies nowadays are so extra with priorities over good looking actors and background music that it takes away the effects of scary scenes. Well it disappoints us a lot due to the fact that we wasted our time watching something which didn’t even have an ending which could make us gasp. These are the times to reminisce about Chucky, Frankenstein and Scream; good old times.

2.

Sometimes you wonder what you were thinking. Seriously, the movie gets so bad that you wish you had watched a thriller or classic instead of a ridiculous episode of jump-scares and mainstream format of protagonist never getting killed and saving the day. Still, there is always a hope deep inside that a good horror movie will take our sleeps away, one day.

“I want to go to the bathroom” is the last thing you would want to say to your spouse because let’s face it, you’re scared to find a demon looking at you in the mirror and you’re also too lazy to turn on the lights of your room. Well, good luck convincing each other on getting out of the bed.
