Hey good morning. Do you like the horror genre? I think it's funny it seeks to elicit fear!
gpt
I've only recently started to watch horror movies. I was never allowed to watch them as a child but I find them so interesting now. Did you know that you can even burn calories watching them!?
human
Glad you can enjoy them now! Yes surprisingly up to 180 per hour! Is it considered a workout then?!
gpt
Sounds like one to me! It's surprising that nobody has spread that information as a workout/diet plan. 
human
*leans forward* We could be the first! Those creepy noises in the movies are made by something called a waterphone. I would like to see what that looks like.
gpt
I would like to see that! Do you think that it was invented specifically for horror movies or did somebody stumble on the creepiness of a thing that already existed?
human
Good question, maybe it was some sort of musical instrument before? It was in the Shining for sure! The child actor who played Danny Boy didn't realize he was acting in a Horror Film. I wonder when he found out?
gpt
Maybe he got old enough to watch his own movie? Haha. I wonder what he thought was going on if he wasn't aware that's what filming a movie was. Did he just think life was that dark and creepy?
human
Yes because there was a lot of blood too! I am curious to know. Kind of like when Stephen King saw Bambi for the first time and was terrified!
gpt
I was traumatized by Bambi too! Weren't you? It was the first movie I remember seeing where anyone died! It's funny to think of that inspiring Stephen King though isn't it?
human
*opens mouth slightly* Actually true now that I think about it, yes it was a bit scary but yes I bet it inspired him since he thinks of it as a Horror film.
gpt
It's interesting to think that Horror is such an old genre. I kind of think of it as modern with all the blood and gore but what Edgar Allen Poe was doing was considered horror in that time as well
human
Yes you raise a very valid point. And don't forget about Bram Stoker and Mary Shelley as well!
gpt
*calm eyes* Although I guess if you think about it death and murder were way more mysterious back before we had all this technology to help, so it makes sense it would have been an entertainment genre then too
human
*body relaxes* Yes good point. Do you also like drama? It is a bit more poetic in general as opposed to horrror!
gpt
Yes I enjoy drama! Did you know that Jon Hamm used to be a drama teacher?
human
*laughs* Yes in fact one of his students was Ellie Kemper from The Office, one of my favorite shows!
gpt
*leans forward* That's the lady on Kimmy Schmidt now right? I've never seen the office but I've seen that show, and most everything Jon Hamm has been in
human
Yep that's her! I also like the actor Hugh Laurie who plays House MD and for that role he is actually the highest paid actor ever for tv drama!
gpt
That's surprising, because you hear about the cast members from Friends and Seinfeild getting paid millions of dollars an episode and those are comedies. I wonder why dramatic tv actors aren't paid as much
human
Good question it must not bring in as much money? Michael Caine became an actor because of all the pretty girls! Well it was great chatting with you this morning!
gpt
Good chatting with you!
