monsters: demons & other undead

As much as these movies could be heavily criticized and even condemned by the Church at times, I can't get enough of them -- especially Japanese gore and Thai horror films. The whole idea that a soul can take revenge on others or even kill once its body's died fascinates me.

These films portray the folklore, fear and romanticism of death and the human desperation of being eternal. Besides I do believe in demons, the devil, hell and the eternal damnation (suffering and horror) of evil souls as punishment from God.

The whole topic brings back memories of watching Frankenstein with Boris Karloff (1931, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0021884/) as well as TV series like The Munsters (1964-66, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057773/) and The Addams Family (1964-66, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057729) on TV as a child. Surprisingly enough, I'm not sure why I remembered this movie and two comedies in the order I did (same order as listed).

By the way, just because I like what I wrote in my previous entry, I'm quoting it here.

"In all, regardless of the intelligence humans have achieved since Adam and Eve compared to other beasts, humans are and perhaps will ever be the worst monsters humans shall ever meet."
