摘  要：

“全球化”是当今世界各个领域都无法避免一个事实，它令世界范围内的各项要素紧密联系起来。文化也是如此。文化的“全球化”在相互交往的过程中，也引发了种种冲突，东西方文化发生激烈碰撞。在此大背景下，近年来东西方恐怖电影愈来愈受欢迎，而恐怖片的产地在全球的分布也不再仅仅局限于美国和日本两大阵营，像一些亚洲国家，以中国为例，恐怖电影也快速发展着，而且也开始批量生产这种类型电影，并取得了不俗的成绩。但是和西方的恐怖电影相比，中国的恐怖电影还是不够成熟的。而导致这个结果的原因就是中西方国家不同的文化背景和地域差异。从恐怖片类型和起源等方面的不同，我们可以看出中西方文化的冲突与交融。
本文首先从东西方不同的电影文化角度入手，分析中西方文化的冲突与交融；再从具体层面剖析中西方恐怖电影中的精神，进而感受到中西方恐怖电影各自的特点。然后综合以上两点，从电影中众多的文化冲突，文化融合角度来分析中西方恐怖电影的特色，进而进一步讨论中西方恐怖电影中的融合之处。

Abstract:

“Globalization” is an inevitable fact in all fields around the world now. It closely connects the different elements together in the world at large. The culture is just like the globalization. In the process of cultural globalization, many conflicts have been triggered. In this situation, Chinese horror movies also develop and change very quickly, but compared with western horror movie, Chinese horror movies are still tender. What cause this situation; I think the reason is the different cultural backgrounds and regional difference of Chinese and western countries. From the different style and origin of horror movies, we can see the conflicts and fusion between Chinese and western culture.
This thesis attempts to analyze the conflicts and fusion between Chinese and western culture in the view of different movie cultures between Chinese and western countries, so as to reveal the profound Chinese and western spirit in those films. Then, the paper discusses the features of Chinese and western horror movie respectively. At last, by combining the above aspects, the thesis analyzes the cultural fusion in horror movies, and then makes further efforts to explore the similarity between Chinese and western horror movies.
