i look at it this way, horror movies definitely have an influence. Someone said it's all the brain, but its not that simple is it. Nobodys born a killer and yet people do, and this is due to external influences, on the brain. therefore horror movies, along with countless other influences, will take effect. not to say that it will be the thoughts from horror movies that will be purely influential of course, but they could, not are, could, be an influencing factor. Another arguement is 'well they must have being disturbed already. yes, very possibly so, but 'if', and again i use the word 'if' it turns out to be an influence does that excuse it?

of course, there are equally reasoned and valid counter arguements for all these points, and my opinio overall is that it is numerous social, economic, and personal reasons that push people that way
