            Another important element in creating a good horror story is of course mood, and there are many descriptive passages in Dracula that demonstrate mood.  A great example is in the first chapter of the book, "They were a hundred times more terrible in the grim silence which held them than even when they howled.  For myself, I felt a sort of paralysis of fear."  (Stoker, 12).  This takes place still in the first chapter of Jonathan Harker's journal, when the driver calls to the wolves and then "commands" them to become silent.  Here, the event that the last quote was hinting at is at last revealed, and the quote above summarizes the mood of the protagonist at this point.  He was "paralyzed with fear", meaning that he was so fearful that he could not even move.  Stoker is very proficient at including vivid descriptions of mood in order to create a haunted atmosphere.

The purpose of this lab was to identify an unknown bacteria culture using differential tests.

The image the vampire is being used in horror movies and novels to portray the fear of disease and infection. For example, in the novel I Am Legend, Richard Matheson states: “The worry had started a few hours before, while Ruth was sleeping. Now, he couldn't rid himself of the fear. No matter how he reasoned, it didn’t help” (126). This quote demonstrates the fear that Robert Neville, the main character, was experiencing. He was afraid that Ruth, the girl he brought home, is infected. The quote shows the fear of losing a companion from Neville while illustrating the general theme which is the horror of contagion. Furthermore, Matheson also states: “He was surrounded now by people, hundreds of them,

Topic: Thesis statement: Sequence analysis, film form and style as depicted in the film, The Matrix.

Firstly, through the use of mise-en-scène, at the beginning of the scene, Quentin Tarantino displays and manages to symbolize the complete contrasts of how the two characters are feeling. The setting of a film is “the most fundamental featur[e]” of mise-en-scène. (Corrigan and White, 69) The Bride has just finished maiming and killing 88 fully trained assassins, and now walks out onto the rooftop garden of O-ren Ishii’s House Of Blue Leaves. The contrast of the inside of the house compared to the outside of the house, makes it appear as if The Bride is literally walking into a movie screen, hinting towards the next scene holding a different tone from the previous one - feeling like it is from a different movie. This indeed happens, as the battle between The Bride and O-ren

Symbolism, in particular, plays a main role in this cartoon, in conveying the overall message of the cartoon. In particular, it is highly eye-catching and evident that the vampire in the cartoon is symbolising George Clemenceau, the Prime

I have added the assignments SA 1.2, SA 1.3, and SA 1.4 my short assignment because these assignments created the foundation to my film analysis. SA 1.2 taught me to look deeper into the meaning of a scene’s mise-en-scene. This is where

Stoker creates a fearful and eerie mood for his readers to experience through his diction choice. The novel is centered around the Antichrist, or Dracula, so most of the descriptive language ties back to him. Mina begins by explaining that her awful dreams were all connected to “death”, “vampires”, “blood”, “pain”, and “trouble” (Stoker 304). These words specifically evoke a dark image and feeling of doom. In addition, the words that Stoker uses to describe Dracula help create chills for the reader. He is described as having a “waxen face”, “sharp white teeth”, “red eyes”, and “red lips” (Stoker 305). The red connects to the blood motif, which is what Dracula thrives off of. The

I think that it means that he is very mad at his uncle, but is madder at himself. I think that he is mad at himself because of his powers. He does not like his powers since they hurt him, but that they also prevent him from hitting uncle Hoyte. Since he cannot hit his uncle, he is mad at himself for being that way.

This reveals that he is a vampire, who was in love with a girl

It is not only the anger or the ambiguity of the situation, but also the fright, the feeling of being threatened and in peril since he was one of the two survivors whom the assassins had missed (the other one an ex-alcoholic was absent that day), the desperation, and too much improvise burden on his chest!

The use of blood imagery also allows the audience to imagine the true gruesomeness of King Duncan’s murder. In Act II of Macbeth, the soliloquy describes how Macbeth plans to murder the king. He describes in detail what he will see. “ I see thee still, and on thy blade and dudgeon gouts of blood, which was not so before.” (Act II, Scene 5. Line1) The dudgeon of a dagger is the hilt of the dagger (123helpme.com, pg. 1) Therefore; Macbeth is describing a sharp dagger, covered in thick blood from its tip to the hilt. One can easily visualize the crime scene and the victim’s body after such a dagger has been plunged into it several times. These deep wounds, the length of said dagger, become the points from which King Duncan’s lifeblood will spill. This particular description relies on its imagery to reveal the transition from honor to that of pure evil and treachery. No good intent, honor, or victory can attach to such a vile act. Blood imagery now intensifies an atmosphere that is thoroughly evil. It exposes the evil plans and actions that have come to dominate the characters of Macbeth and his lady. Lady Macbeth asks the spirits to “ make thick my blood.” (Act I, Scene 5, line. 50) She is asking the spirits to leave her” remorseless and insensitive about the murders she and Macbeth will soon commit. To feel insensitive to such treachery would expose a heart of pure evil.
