Animals - part 2

When I decided to write about animals, I wanted to divide this topic into two parts. The first part (as you can see) is about pets and their positive properties. In this part I'll talk about other animals but throughout a different point of view.

Recently I've watched a horror-movie about spiders (tarantulas, to be more precise) on tv and a question has just come into my mind. Why do film-makers do such types of films?

Well, I think they always choose certain species of animals that have fearsome appearance or properties. For example, if you consider the situation of bats, they are usually compared with vampires. Or in case of predators, the directors usually put an emphasis on the(ir) brutality.

To tell the truth, I don't really like spiders or any types of insects. Insects have more legs than four, sometimes they are ugly (for example cockroaches) and they can be found in almost everywhere, so they disturb me. The only exception is ladybird, because it is small and cute. :) But as for spiders....I'm afraid of them! Maybe because of these films, but I don't know the whole reason. In the past I ran away if I had seen one or I just killed them at once, but now I'm trying to keep them alive and avoid the touch with them. I think the only advantage of these films is that they can help abolishing our fear towards these animals.

I hope you won't have nightmares after watching these films. ;)

Cheers! :))
