Girls Are Really Scared of Horror Movies: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

[[File:girls are blah blah long title but smaller 5228.jpg|link=Archie Comics|frame|[[Blatant Lies|No idea whatsoever.]]]]

 

Alice and Bob are in the cinema, watching a highly gory movie, [[Take Our Word for It|which we don't see]]. Alice is really scared, hiding behind the popcorn and holding Bob for comfort. Bob thinks he's in with a chance.

 

Compare [[Kids Shouldn't Watch Horror Films]].

 

== Anime and Manga ==

* Subverted in ''[[Toradora!]]'': {{spoiler|Minori Kushieda}} pretends to be scared senseless by all things horror when, in fact, she [[Nightmare Fetishist|loves horror movies]] and thus, encourages others to try scaring her.

** In yet another comic, Archie decides to help Betty get over her fear of horror movies by renting the most terrifying ones at the store. By the time they get through all of them, Betty is in love with horror movies, but Archie can no longer enjoy them...

** One comic has a boy renting a horror video to watch with Sabrina, for the reason in the trope's description. Turns out she thinks it's hilarious, and the events in her house freak the guy out, and he bails.

 

* In ''[[Kyon: Big Damn Hero]]'', Kyon's sister's friend Miyoko loves horror movies and invites him to see ''[[Saw]]'' with her. On the other hand, Haruhi invites herself and Mikuru along, and to say the least, [[Security Cling|they don't take it in as much stride]]-- [[Genre Savvy|exactly as Haruhi planned]].

* Inverted in one [[Naruto]]/Hinata fan comic, in which Naruto watches a movie with Team 8. Hinata thinks to herself that the movie is too badly made to scare her enough to jump into Naruto's lap. Eventually, however, Naruto jumps into hers, and [[Shipper on Deck|Shino thinks that it's an unexpected way of getting the desired outcome]].
