Synopsis:
The logic of horror films is based on the fear they produce on the spectator. In The horror, such dynamics are inverted by giving the audience the starring role –as if the film were on “this” side of the screen– and presenting the projected characters in the movies as the “audience” of the spectacle in the cinema theater. Such an unusual protagonism enables the spectator to question his or her traditional position as a passive participant when watching a film; always dependent upon the projected illusion on the cinema screen.
