They were in front of the house and a large shadow appeared behind Jem like some sort of paranormal figure. They run away from the house afterwards and then when Jem went back for his pants, a gunshot popped off and letting the audience on their chair that something bad happends]]> 2017-05-08 15:16:34 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537223 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537292 I disagree , TKAMB is not portrayed as a horror movie in my opinion. I believe this because of the simple fact that there is nothing intimidating about it , every movie has suspicious things going on in different ways. I think that it simply has scenes that could be set up by the director to be scary. The Radley house is seen as this horrific house where horrible things have taken place. Overall I don't think the movie is seen as a horror film.]]> 2017-05-08 15:16:43 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537292 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537293 I agree that the movie TKAMB is indeed a horror. Though it may not be a good film to fit this genre, it still matches the characteristics needed to qualify as a horror movie. Most horror movies have a supernatural type which in this story is Boo Radley with his enormous height, and many other odd features. They instill a feeling of suspense when they go to The Radleys house to find out more about the barren house. Then once again when Scout waits on Jem to go and get his jeans. Overall though this story may not be a good quality horror it definitely fits the guidelines. ]]> 2017-05-08 15:16:43 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537293 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537304 I disagree that TKAM is a horror movie. Even though Boo Radley is the "horror" aspect of the movie, TKAM is not based around Boo Radley, but rather on the racial issues during that time. TKAM is primarily based on Scout and Jem, not Boo. This movie could be seen as a horror movie if the critics focused on Boo Radley. TKAM is a fictional story with a real life issue.]]> 2017-05-08 15:16:45 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537304 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537332 I disagree that To kill a mockingbird is a horror movie because so far there haven't been any scares in the movie. Boo Radley can be considered a part of the movie that gives a horror vibe but I don't think it is a actual horror movie. A true horror movie has jump scares and suspense but so far I haven't felt that with TKAMB. The only thing so far that is considered suspenseful or horror is the gunshot that was fired while Jem was in the Radleys yard. Honestly I think the movie is just a drama with a little bit of comedy and maybe a bit of horror but not a horror movie.]]> 2017-05-08 15:16:50 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537332 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537359 Yes, I agree that this movie could be a horror movie in many ways. Throughout the movie Jem and Scout's adventures are suspenseful. For example when they snuck out at night to visit Boo Radley's house. It was very suspenseful when Jem got his jeans stuck in the wire. In conclusion yes it can be a horror movie because of its supsenful scenes ]]> 2017-05-08 15:16:54 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537359 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537402 I believe that the critics are right about tkamb being a  horror movie. I agree because the setting and suspenseful sound help conclude that. Also in the movie scout, Dill, and Jem are all frightened by their neighbors, the Radleys. 
Plus the scene where Dills aunt and Jem tell us about the history of the Radley gives me a reason to believe that this is a horror movie. All of the scenes we've watched to far adds on to the fact that this is a horror movie]]> 2017-05-08 15:17:02 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537402 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537412 I disagree with those critics. If it was it would suck. I don't agree because even though Boo Radley is portrayed as a scary character, the kids try to befriend him. And usually in horror movies everyone is afraid of the scary character. Also the scaryness isn't the main idea in it. The main topic is the tom Robinson case and how it affects scout.]]> 2017-05-08 15:17:04 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537412 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537418 I disagree. Horror movies tend to be graphically horrific, like showing something brutal. Where as in TKAMB, a lot is left to the imagination until your read or watch further. The only scary element of this story is Boo Radley. My opinion may change, depending on what the main idea comes out to be, however, I don't think it'll have a lot to do with horror.

TKAMB is a book and movie about justice, equality, and struggles throughout the time period, not just about the Radley house. Although in the beginning the story is mainly towards the kids side so it may seem as the Radley house is the main idea, but it is not. Also there are a lot of superstitions throughout the story, so it is understandable to why people can believe that. This shows how the story is not mainly a horror but a drama novel.]]> 2017-05-08 15:17:10 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537450 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537519 I'm kind of neutral , because although "Boo Radley" is frightening, there's a lot more adventure in this movie. The fact that the whole movie is black & white shows a little horror. Also,the things that happen with Boo Radley and his place shows some fear. However, there's a lot of stupid comedy . As well as mysterious.]]> 2017-05-08 15:17:22 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537519 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537534 I disagree with the critics that it's a horror movie. Although there are some scary elements, many scenes and characters do no reflect other horror movie characteristics. For example, most of the characters are nice and caring. In addition, the main themes such as segregation and racism do not have anything do with horror. Finally, the writer did not intend for it to be a horror story.]]> 2017-05-08 15:17:26 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537534 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537549 I disagree because calling it a horror movie takes away the theme of the story. It was created to show justice and how prejudice people can be. Even though there are several aspects about it to call it a horror movie, I believe that those aspects leads it to its theme. At the moment, there is a suspenseful scene but suspense can happen in every movie. Overall, the movie portrays the destroying of innocence and calling it a horror movie removes the theme of the plot. These are the reasons why I believe that it is not a horror movie.]]> 2017-05-08 15:17:30 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537549 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537557 2017-05-08 15:17:31 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537557 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537588 It could be a horror movie because of the story they tell about the Radley family. Also they went to the house and everyone is scared of it because of the story. But it also cannot be a horror movie because of what they do around the town and when they talk about their life. They also just play around it could be called a mystery because they're curious . They want to find out who Boo Radley is so it would be consider a mystery.]]> 2017-05-08 15:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537588 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537651 I agree because the whole story is a horror based novel and movie. Some parts I would question if it is a horror movie because it's not that scary. But the music they play may have some affect on the genre because the music is creepy. Some scenes leave you questioning , they see boo as like a monster and basically the whole town sees him as one. The part where they try to see in the window is suspenseful because there is a shadow that almost gets jem but till the end the music really makes it a horror film ]]> 2017-05-08 15:17:52 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537651 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537665 I agree because so far there has been a mysterious character that has been scaring the kids. Boo Radley is like the ghost in horror movies. He lurks in the shadows and evntually the suspense builds up until the very end. In the end of the movie, I think they'll show how Boo looks like. TKAMB has all the elements of a horror movie.]]> 2017-05-08 15:17:55 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537665 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537702 To Kill a Mockingbird is not a horror story but it is filled with suspense. However some scenes leave you curious and others don't. I think the fact that it's in black and white adds to the theory that it's like a horror story. Jem's dangerous and adventurous acts can come off scary at times.And the whole "Boo Radley" story may be the most scary thing in the story. ]]> 2017-05-08 15:18:03 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537702 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537734 I agree that tkamb can be a horror movie to some people that dont usually watch movies, because the way they make Boo Radely seem like he's a scary person. Next, in the movie it displayed how he walked up seeming as if were to kill or harm the boys and girls since they seemed to duck in cover. After that, it wouldn't really scare people from just that it's that also once the children run for there lives Jem needs to go back for his pants he dropped. Although, as Jem returns for his pants we see in scouts point of view and hear a gunshot being fired. As the audience we would assume that this would mean that Boo Radley have shot Jem. Lastly, these are some reasons why some people may think that tkamb is a horror movie, but I could understand how some people can think it may not be.]]> 2017-05-08 15:18:09 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537734 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537996 I disagree, I do not believe TKMB is like a horror movie. The movie does not have the aspects of a horror movies like continuous jump scares. The movie doesn't have real horror in it. The thought of Boo Raddley isn't even scary, it's just part of the kids childess imagenation. So far in the movie this is what I have seen and I do not believe it is horror like, or like a horror movie. ]]> 2017-05-08 15:18:22 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170537996 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170538842 I agree that it is a horror type movie. But I don't believe that it is scary enough really qualify as a horror film. In my opinion this movie is not scary whatsoever, however it is pretty old. I think they tried to or attempted to make a scary movie. But in the end it didn't turn out to be that way for me at least]]> 2017-05-08 15:20:57 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170538842 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170539285 So far I agree with the critics that say its a horror film. They play music in the background to set a mood that it's spooky or something troubling is going to happen. Also when Jem is on the porch of Boos house, a dark mysterious shadow appears.  Plus the film being black and white adds to the feeling of horror.But there are still some part that make this film seem like it's not a horror film.

There was only one scene where it had only a little horror scene. This dose not make the whole film a horror movie. The shadow adds to the horror , but not by much. TKAMB is not a horror movie. ]]> 2017-05-08 15:22:23 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170539450 https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170539814 I completely disagree. A movie can have some vague horror elements without being in the horror genre. To Kill a Mockingbird isn't scary just because it's suspenseful sometimes. The music might be considered horror movie music, but that doesn't make it all horror. The whole plot isn't centered around something scary.]]> 2017-05-08 15:23:33 UTC https://padlet.com/michaelpope/7uoufm82m4ym/wish/170539814
