Critical Reflection III

In conducting my research I did a cultural analysis where I watched the movies "The Exorcist" and "The Ring". My results from my research were showing how the child in the movie scared us, by what they wore, how they talked, and what they did. My results showed that when the child did something we could never imagine a child doing that's when we were given the most fright. For example in "The Exorcist" when Regan is possessed there is a scene when she is says she is the devil and talks very sexual. This scene was very repulsing, it was hard to watch a child do something like this. My primary research will help me with my research question because I am finding out on my own why children in a horror film scare me and how they do it, I can then compare that to other peoples findings.The connections I see between my secondary and primary research are in some of the secondary sources they talked about these two movies. With these secondary sources I will be able to compare my findings to the findings of someone else. The differences of my secondary sources and primary research are, some of the research is trying to find out different parts of the movie that scare us and not focusing on the child scaring us, and I am focusing just on the child. My ideas as of right now in structuring my research paper are to start out with one of the movies that I have watched and explain a frightening scene to catch the audiences attention. I will then explain why this scene scares us so much. I will organize my secondary and primary research by supporting the primary research that I did on my own with secondary research that I found. I will also use some secondary research and go more in depth about what they are talking about and use my primary research to support that.
