The primary research I decided to do was to watch two different horror films that centered around the child becoming possessed. I chose the movies, "The Ring" and "The Exorcist". I watched the movies over the weekend and over this week I am hoping to further examine them. I hope to answer questions like, what are the camera angles they shot the child at, how does the child act before/after becoming possessed, is any music playing, and are children's toys present? This will help my research paper by helping me to explain why children in scary movies frighten us so much because I can evaluate what they do in the movies that frighten us. My secondary research influenced me to choose movies because many of the articles I read also examined horror movies. Yes I see many connections between my primary and secondary research for example one of the articles talked about the movie "The Ring" and that influenced me to watch the movie "The Ring" to even further examine it. The choices I made in developing my primary research was deciding which movies to watch and what questions to ask myself. I already said a few of the questions I asked but a few others I may ask are, where the story takes place, and how the parents play a role in the child's like. I took notes during these movies and the questions I have I will be answering in my notebook. In my research I may also talk about the movie "The Woman In Black."
