I would want to watch a romance film over a horror film. I love a good love story. I get butterflies everytime I watch them. I am not into all that blood and gore. Blood and gore creep me out. It looks so real in those movies. It makes my stomache turn. I just can't handle movies like that. Don't get me wrong I have seen some good horror movies but I like my romance movies better. I can sit back and enjoy a love story. Most of the time I get tears in my eyes from thos love stories.

...Hi tuckersheri, I like romance movies, I really like contemporary dramas. I cannot watch horror movies because they sometimes enter my sub-conscious, and it's not fun. I remember watching "Looking for Mr. Goodbar" some time ago by myself, that night I had the worst nightmares and I promised myself, not to terrorize myself by watching scary movies, the same goes for horror movies, too much for me. Love a good story and good actors. Take care.

that is the only disadvantage of too much horror film that it kinda affects our thoughts in such a way that we can't live normally any more. we can't do things alone, we can't sleep without lights on any more. it create so many thoughts that were not there before. so it is really advisable not to watch those too much horror. just a little scary that could not be considered really horror is fine. but with love story , i think that sometimes the disadvantage with it that we tend to believe what happens on the movie, like falling in love and finding love is as easy as it is in movie. it is not easy to find love for me.

I prefer horror films than romantic movies, because in horror films there's some anxieties and thrill and I like being thrilled and rose up my nerve while watching rather than sitting with a relax mood.lol!

i love love stories generally. or the romantic movies or soaps. i find them quite fun to watch and i don't get bored with it. but it create in me an illusion that i am living the life of the main character. like i am seeing myself on the position of the character. it is really just an illusion. and so sometimes i just don't want to be carried away by the story. and i have to pat my face a lot of times that i just being carried away by the story. and sometimes i compare my experiences with the story. and feel like comparing my former crush on the main character and try to make some comparison like if their motive was just like the same with the story i am watching. and i am trying to find some answers on the reason some of my crushes acted that way before towards if the reason was the same reason i had seen on the soap or movie. i just can sigh every time i remember those romantic scenes in the soap i watch.

I enjoy watching romantic films rather than horror films. They make me feel good unlike horror films. I usually have a hard time sleeping after watching a horror film.

It would depend on my mood & mostly I would prefer horror movies because it is thrilling, but I'll watch horror only if it's a good film & if the direction is good. I hate to watch silly movies. Some times watching horror movie is like watching a comedy film!! So if it's a good movie, I would prefer horror & if I'm in a romantic mood, I would prefer romantic movie Happy Lotting

I am really a sucker for romantic films. I watch horror films too but I prefer those romantic and feel good movies. They make my day bright and they constantly remind me that life is not boring at all. Life can be so perfect if you just choose it to be. :D

I love both romantic and horror films. As for me to choose, well, it all depends on my taste for that day. Im not a moody person but I watch any kind of many as I like. I buy DVDs which I think is great.

It depends on how good the movie is. There are boring romance movies and boring horror movies. So I would watch the movie which was a hit and not the movie which was flop, irrespective of horror or romance.

For me, Its totally depend on my mood, I like both type of movie and like romance movie as like as horror. If I am in very good mood, its raining, or something like romantic enviorment , them I use to see romantic love story with some drama and action also. And if it is late night about to 11-12 in night. I use to see horror movie in higher volume, So I can go deeply with the story... "NEHA"

For me, I like to watch horror movies because it not only makes you brave, it also tells you on how to be strong in times of circumstances. You will also realize that what you have watch is not really true but chances of it to happen in true life is only a little. What also I wanted is the moral lesson if you analyze deeply the story. The suspense it triggers in you everytime you watch it. It is also the same in a love story that has also a lesson and makes you sad or cry. So, my advice is that what film do you prefer just watch it all you want for what makes you happy and comfortable.

to be honest, neither. i hate horror movies which i used to like at one point. they have beocme too bloody and too violent with too much killing. as far as romance it does nothing for me so i do not even bother watching it. give me a good comedy any day or a suspense thriller.

I for sure prefer romance films over horror films. When I watch a horror film I'm covering my eyes most of the time, my heart is racing and I'm on the edge of my seat. Its just to much to deal with. I love a romance film its relaxing and the story is usually very good. They are easy to watch and I usually am crying at the end.
