1. I believe the thesis behind this article is that we all have our guilty pleasures in life and exploring them isn’t always bad. For king, his guilty pleasure is watching a horror film and he describes how this makes him truly feel. With words such as liberating and freeing, one could understand just how much it means to King. King describes the reason we watch horror movies is because there is something freeing about it that makes it fun. King goes on to say that, “our emotions and our fears form their own body, and we recognize that it demands its own exercise to maintain proper muscle tone.” People are applauded for when they show positive emotions towards one another and “exercise†that emotion. In this way people maintain the status quo of civilization. As a result of watching horror films, like a sick joke its job is to deliberately appeal to the worst in everyone. We all need outlets and ways that we can tap into our inner self, whether it’s a nasty joke or a gruesome movie. What could potentially happen if we don’t watch horror films is that our nastiest fantasies and morbidly unchained instincts would be let free. The way it is perceived by king is that it would be inevitable that without watching horror movies we would not be nice and because no matter how old you get, that evil is lying dormant inside of you.
2. I believe the thesis of King’s “Why We Crave Horror Movies” is stated when he says “it deliberately appeals to all that is worst in us”. Meaning, deep down we crave that fear and thrill that you get when watching a horror movie.
Page 132 of the text states that you should begin with a grabber or lead. King does exactly that when saying “I think that we’re all mentally ill”. That statement catches a reader’s attention and has them thinking “why?” which is exactly what the text wants you to do.
Page 134 talks about describing the event or phenomenon and says when you are describing your subject you should use sensory details to illustrate what you are talking about. King does a fantastic job at this throughout the article. A good example of this is the comparison between horror movies and roller coasters “some of the reasons are simple and obvious. To show that we can, that we are not afraid, that we can ride this roller coaster.” When King compares horror movies to roller coasters, I personally start to think about the thrilling feeling you get while riding a coaster.
Page 137 talks about restating your main point and looking to the future. King wraps it all up by explaining that horror movies serve a purpose. “The mythic horror movie, like the sick joke, has a dirty job to do. It deliberately appeals to all that is worst in us. It is morbidly unchained, our most base instincts let free, our nastiest fantasies realized… and it all happens, fittingly enough, in the dark.â€
3. Thesis: Humanity craves the horror genre of movies not only for a sense of normality in our own lives, nor the pride one gets from making it through, but also for a peculiar form enjoyment.
Casual Analyses 7.3
1. King opens his essay with a harsh statement not many people like to hear: “I think that we’re all mentally ill; those of us out of the asylum only hide it a little better.” (page 504). While King later states that he believes we are at different levels of this insanity, this introduction follows the idea of opening a casual essay with a strong grabber or lead.
2. While it as not as explicitly stated as the books example provides, King identifies his purpose on page 505, stating “When we pay four or five bucks to seat ourselves tenth-row center in a theater showing a horror movie, we are daring the nightmare. Why?” Kings transition from the intro to his main topic is incredibly discrete. However, this short, three line paragraph introduces what the rest of the paper is about: Why we watch horror movies to begin with.
3. Finally, King offers some historical context and background information to help us understand the fun we find in horror movies. On page 505, he quotes one critique who “has suggested that if pro football has become the voyeurs version of combat, then the horror film has become the modern version of a public lynching.” For anyone who has taken a history class, the public lynching is a topic that comes up often, along with public executions, and other such shows of gore and the macabre to the public. He continues this on 506, explaining how these showings of horror are like an outlet for our emotions; How one “has to be let loose to roll and scream in the grass for a bit.” (Page 506). These deeper explanations give context for how the fun of horror movies are nothing new, just a new form of expression.

A) By Allyssa
The purpose of Evidence-based practice (EBP) is to improve quality of care and patient outcomes to reduce not just the costs of care across healthcare but also to provide better service for our patients and for the betterment of healthcare (Melnyk, 2015). Over the past 10 weeks, I have to be very honest it was really an intense and very challenging one. Coming and graduating from a different country was one of the few barriers I encountered this semester. I took my last research subject almost 10 years ago now and it was not really fun being blindsided on how to get through things especially when the subject became so technical and I had to involve statistics in as well. I had to re-educate myself or at least I tried to really read articles and previous notes so I can move more forward each week. I also get anxious as weeks pass by because I know for myself that I can do better if I know the right tools, the right approach with the right guidance. It took me 4 weeks in class before I realized that I really need a refresher course since I started off wrong and my research question was not approved right away. Now I plan to enroll myself in an Excel short class because on the last week assignment it made me realize how important it is to know Excel. It’s a great tool and I will be able to utilize it well enough on the position I currently hold which currently related to Nursing leadership. I want to thank everyone most especially to Dr. Diana for extending your patience when it comes to my posts.
I wish everyone Good luck and Congratulations in advance.

Reflecting on this class took me through a lot of thoughts. I was overwhelmed at the beginning and several times through the process I wasn’t sure what I had gotten myself into. Research project or paper is multi-step process that need lots of time to complete. Each week the information provided by Dr. Diana was informational, and the discussion questions helped me with the week assignments. Picking my topic was not difficult for me, patients present to the ER in pain all the time. I decided that picking a topic related closely to the field I work in now and may possibly work in the future would benefit my research project. Looking for literature was not my favorite part, but I will say that I enjoyed reading about my topic and the different studies that have already been completed. Evidenced based practice is the ground work for nursing and the more research that is completed the better we can provide the most effective care and improve patient outcomes (Turner, 2017). There will always be ethical issues in nursing. Protecting our patients is a goal for all nurses. Providing the best care for any situation is also a priority. A difficult portion of the research process was the statistics. Picking a proper test and process to analyze the research data was difficult to say the least. I am certain that I am more comfortable with nursing research now at the end of this course.
In my career as an ER nurse there is no research being currently done in my department or at the facility where I work. I am hoping that once completing this program I will be able to use the knowledge I gained from this nursing research class in my career as a nurse practitioner.
I love the nursing field for the fact that we can learn something new every day, we can care for our patients on their best or worst day, and nothing beats the feeling of caring for a patient and seeing what a difference you made in their lives or care.
Thank you, class, for your responses to my posts and questions. Thank you, Dr. Diana, for leading this research course and providing us with information to succeed.
