And, you have to give answer each question.
1. Mark Gatiss, the host, states that "after the Great War, German cinema had something to prove. It wasn't just entertainment." Why do you think the German film industry, and the horror genre in particular, became so popular? What was it about the movies and their monsters that the public found so appealing?
2. The "moral gray area" is something French cinema celebrated. Why might this theme have resonated with them? Why makes it so terrifying that it continues to be popular in films and other cultural mediums today?
3. According to Spanish director Narciso Ibáñez Serrador, the typical movie monsters are so "fantastical that the public don't believe they can exist. But if something innocent can be a monster, that has more impact." Why might he believe this to be the case? Do you agree or disagree with his statement? Why?
4. Many of the films discussed in this documentary are rooted in politics. In what ways do political currents and situations lend themselves to the horror genre regardless of setting or country of origin?
