Body: There are several films that have portrayed women as these ranting, insane, unstable creatures. The characters lose control of their emotions and need to be slapped. The phrase "Get ahold of yourself!" might be uttered. And it's pretty incredible. Wikipedia writes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_hysteria

Body: I saw Night of the Living Dead for the first time this weekend and the entire time I was watching it, I couldn't wait to add it to this film. If there ever was a film featuring female hysteria this is it. Facing an army of zombies, the female characters in this film become absolutely worthless in fighting them off. With way too many hysterical scenes and plenty of co-dependency to the male figures in the film, this movie is the perfect fit for this group.Don't get me wrong, it was a good film, but if I'm ever in a zombie fight, I expect my girlfriend to keep her wits about her enough to kick back when they start trying to lunch on her leg.

Body: I would be willing to bet that there are a lot more classics that feature female hysteria then current films. Maybe it's the change in popular thought, but many of the original Hollywood hits featured the screaming damsel in distress and the popular hero who saves the day. I guess it should be no suprise to me then that Peter Jackson's remake of the classic King Kong would follow the same formula.The problem with Jackson's remake though was that it was so long that the screaming really got old after a while. In the end there was only so much that I could take before the effect lost it's impact. A much more subtle approach to female hysteria would have been a much better route. In the end, the screaming had all bark and no bite for me.
