well, if its a normal one, just stays that day or two, if it is quite a lot frightening, it stays for one week or even more...

No matter how scary the movie is the scare it gives me lasts just one night. Praying and knowing that you are protected by the one from above makes me brave from movies and the horror of real life as well:)

Usually just an hour or so. If it is really good, it will keep me thinking a few days. The first Saw movie did this. And I think it was wrong turn, I might be wrong though.

Hi buddy you have put up an unusual question here, it needs a lot of thinking and analyzation as well. Comming straight to the point a horror can have its impact for about 2-3 days and it depends on factors like: 1.Individual(How strong he is at heart) 2.The intensity of the film 3.The condition of the viewer and the place where it is viewed etc Good Luck.
