A reading of a 2017 Washington Post article, and 2009 Quarterly Journal of Economics article, on horror movies. The idea of horror movies reducing violent crime appears counterintuitive. However, the concept of a replacement behavior becomes critical in understanding of this study. The whole idea brings about more questions than it answers. Do not be afraid to explore this new idea. Wait! On second thought, be afraid. It is Halloween!
Show Highlights:
Do horror movies produce more crime, or are they “harmless”
An analysis of crime when Happy Death Day (2017) was in theaters
The draw of popular horror movies reduces the occurrences of violence
The reduction in alcohol consumption as a factor
Reduction of crime in South Africa using a computer program
The power of good replacement behavior at the right time, and in the right context.
Appearance (maybe) in the 2001 movie Hannibal
Katherine L. Milkman article in the Washington Post (10/27/2017):
What if horror movies actually stop crime, not cause it?
