“While This Trope Has Faded Away In Modern Cinema, It’s Hold On The Human Psyche Still Remains. If

“While this trope has faded away in modern cinema, it’s hold on the human psyche still remains. If Jaws made us fear sharks, these films made us fear our own phones. If it’s night, and you’re all alone, and you receive a call from someone you don’t know, that ring is a chill down your spine. If you choose to answer, the possibilities are endless. It could be a simple wrong number or a telemarketer, or maybe it’s the unknown, a faceless presence in the dark watching you, waiting to strike. That fear never goes away.” (x)

That was the last sunrise I ever saw. Perhaps the kindest thing the dark gift has given me. // It was the last time I saw my brother. It was the last time I saw the sun. It was the only time I ever felt free.
