When was the last time you have watched a horror suspense movie? Directors always have their ways of coming up with bloody bathroom scenes, clueless victim gets into the shower, and what always sets the suspense would be the shower curtain.
I have asked some of my friends who love watching horror suspense movies about their favorite scenes when it comes to the screaming part. Most of them prefer shower scenes.
Like for instance let’s say a psycho gets into the house of a girl, I don’t know but psycho serial killers in movies just love to wear black, okay, so we do have now the girl behind the shower curtain.
Plus the director puts a creepy sound effect, and then from nowhere a silhouette behind that fogged up shower curtain appears. And yeah that’s the time you cave in on your seats inside the movie house or grab someone’s hand and scream.
Shower curtains in a bathroom scene is something classic, I think old suspense movies I have seen before got shower curtain props. Possible scene you could come up with would be more than the silhouette effect, you get to let the psycho killer slowly opens the shower curtain, and yes he always needs to have gloves.
And for the character that is going to be killed in a suspense bathroom scene, it is usually a girl. Why it has to be girls always anyway? Maybe girls scream a lot better than guys when it comes to suspense movies.
All this drama would never happen if the person got a frameless shower door for her walk in shower enclosure. Frameless shower doors can come with a lock mechanism.
The scene would instead play out with the psycho killer still slowly approaching the shower, but when he tries to open the glass shower door, he gets surprised that it is locked and his would be victim is safely out of danger. The would-be victim gets to scream for help, neighbors call the police, and the police catch the psycho killer.
And that is the reason why you should get a frameless shower door.
