For my final paper, I decided to take the topic of monsters as people, people as monsters. I think a lot of horror movies can reflect the evil in humanity. I will explore the topics of slashers/serial killers, how the unknown brings out the worst, racism, pushing the limits beyond acceptable boundaries, karma, and greed.
