We often think of science fiction as a science but in fact, it has more to do with destruction than anything else according to Susan Sontag in “the-imagination-of-disaster”. I think that scary movies give off a wrong interpretation by the way it is presented, many people see it as scary monsters that are only there to scare you but I think that a lot of people watch these movies bring out the little demon that is trapped inside them. I think that scary movies are misinterpreted at times because it gives the viewer that is enjoying the movie the impression that its only motive is to scare you, but there are many ways that these scary movies bring out the little demon that you usually are unable to let out.

Having no control over what happens to your body is never a good thing and I think that's what we can misinterpret. We often look at the scary movie and we only see the scariness of it but not what it is really trying to show. There is always a story behind what is being shown. This movie is a great example it shows in a scene where the priest is trying to get this demon out of Regan and this demon is making this little girl say things she would never say before. We often let these things get away from what is really happening and what is really being shown but when looking at the actions of the characters in the movie we start to see what is important. A big thing that is more than what it seems is the plot of what is actually happening for example in the exorcist it shows little Regan being controlled by this demon but if you notice the things that are forced upon her by the people in the room with her. They don't think of her as human anymore they think of her as a body that's holding the real problem. She is not the problem it's what is controlling her that's the problem. We all deal with different problems. Some think it will disappear others think fighting it will help this movie shows that the only way to fight these problems is to demolish them and that's what message is hidden in this

The fear and “un-holiness” of science is also a large element. The fear of science is seen very much so in the novel Frankenstein because it is based in a more conservative time where people were much more afraid of the sciences and especially the creation of life. Science itself is hardly seen in the movie Edward Scissorhands. However, a larger theme than science is how science is perceived by society. The reaction of science varies between the two stories.
