My favorite horror film

 My favorite horror film is: "Mamá"

Information about the film:
- The year it was released: 2013
- Country: Canada
- Director: Andres Muschietti
- Script: Andres Muschietti, Neil Cross and Barbara Muschietti
- Description of the film: Five years ago, the same day her mother was killed, Victoria and Lilly disappeared in the forest. Searched tirelessly for his uncle Lucas and his girlfriend Annabel, are found a few years later in a cabin in the middle of nature, where they have lived isolated from civilization. Then begin a new life for girls hand and Annabel Lucas, but they soon discover that someone or something mysterious is clothing for the night.

In my opinion, "Mamá is a good movie, because includes everything; scares, scared, suspance, and makes you think things like: why girls survive...? How or who helps them resist in the forest? And there are parts that you don't know when the ghost of the mother appears... and these excited. In general is fine. And my favorite part is when the uncles from the girls find them in the cabin, because in this moment you start asking questions and you want to know how it will end.

Comic relief

Comic relief usually means a releasing of emotional or other tension resulting from a comic episode interposed in the midst of serious or tragic elements in a drama. 
It's used for comic relief will usually comment on the absurdity of the hero's situation and make comments that would be inappropriate for a character who is to be taken seriously. Other characters may use comic relief as a means to irritate others or keep themselves confident.
I remeber a funny scene in:

The Exorcist 

Suspense

Hitchcock’s was the master of suspense and horror films. The most important horror film was "psycho". Many films of Hitchcock’s have this characters: violence, murder, and crime.To create more suspance approaches the camera on the person or object, and then keep away piecemeal.
