Journal # 4: Blood Tea and Red String

This animation is different from all the horror films I have seen from the past years. Most of the horror films I have seen in those years have some gruesome and have a lot of scenes where things just pop out of no where. This animation was totally different from that, well at least from what I saw. Maybe there was some things popping out of no where but it was not as effective because it was slow due to the animation. I also have not seen any horror films in an animation form. This is actually the very first horror film I have seen made in animation form. I have never heard of horror films being made in animation. I have not even heard of any made from animation. This animation was also not so scary and I cannot find the horror in it. It disrupts what I know horror films look like.

Blood Tea and Red String is so different from all the horror films I have seen and it is not because it was made in animation form. It is so different because I did not find it scary at all. There was no scary element in it at all in my opinion. It just looked like some normal animation but in a dark side. However, this animation was pretty interesting though I did not find it scary at all when it was supposed to be. It was not effective at all. I guess I just did not find it scary because I am so used to watching horror films that are so real, not made out of clay or objects. It was just weird for me to be watching something thats supposed to be scary in animation which I always thought was only for fun and family friendly films. It is different from what I expect of animation.
