Related 10 Best Horror Movies Like The Watchers Many excellent horror movies exist with similarities to Ishana Night Shyamalan's The Watchers, offering viewers more scares and thrills. The short story tells the story of a small town where the community stones a randomly selected citizen every year on July 27 for prosperity. None of the townspeople can remember how or why exactly it started, but they vehemently oppose the ritual ending. This short story is so frequently taught in United States schools that multiple online resources exist to help study and lesson plan for The Lottery.
As Hyman points out, tradition can lead to controversial consequences. Despite purported messages of equality in the United States, society still faces problems like racism, queerphobia, and sexism – systemically and socially. Some sides of the political arena want to revert progress in order to uphold outdated ideals.
The societies in folk horror movies are often beholden to some spiritual force – an element that’s present in "The Lottery". The story might not include blood or gore, but the fear builds over time, leading up to the climax of the story. The fact that humans can commit such an atrocious act of cruelty is a mainstay in psychological horror movies.
