After the bombing of central business, U.S will never certify movies with strong terrorism message (Biagi , 2011). This is because the government intelligence unit depicted some of a peculiar or unique idea starts in the movies the implemented. Such movies are also likely to create panic among the citizens. more so the children who believe everything that happens in the movies is real. Some film industries decide to animate their films to dilute the effect of the violence content. There is a normal belief by the movie lovers that a cartoon can never be dangerous. Such movies have created a religious divide in the society (Perse, 2001). The majority of actors in the movies with terrorist activities will always resume the Islamic culture and believes. On watching such films, some Christians have always known all Muslims are terrorists. There have been instances some people get out of trains or buses with some Muslims, due to the perception that the vessels may blow up anytime. Some Muslims are also treated ill in security tight regions like the embassies and airports due to wrong perceptions in the human minds. However, it is always wise to remain alert but it is immoral to suspect even innocent citizens. The production of the ‘train’ and ‘Pelham 123’ discouraged the U.S citizens from traveling on the train. The two movies were produced almost at the same time. The transport department noted a remarkable decrease of its customers. The Pelham 123 by John Travolta and Denzel Washington is about a certain imposter taking control of a train boarded by about 300 American citizens in exchange for some ransom. Several people die in the incidence. The scariest part is when the train gets off the rail line into a certain residential area and kills a school kid. The parents who watched the movie were scared to walk along the rail lines in the country, due to fear that the same incidence may happen to them. It took people some time to actually appreciate the fact that the U.S transport department has tight security and such is less likely to occur in real life. The ‘train’ on the other hand is about a man who attacks travelers and actually butchers them then takes the meat to local butcheries. Some viewers were not only scared of traveling by train at night but also consuming the local butchery meat. Video games with violence contents have some consequences in children’s life. Children are like to practice whatever they hear or see (Hogg &. Vaughan 2011). Psychologists lament that the majority of children who end up in juvenile facilities are likely to have played some computer or video games with violence contents. They grow with the eager to experiment whatever they see in the games. Some children would become bullies on trying to experiment the moves from such games. Children who watch horror or scary movies tend to shy of fear being left alone in dark rooms (Krahe, 2001). Some would always scream at the thought that the scary scenes are likely to happen in the dark. There are children who cannot sleep in their own bedrooms unless accompanied by their parents or other older family members. Television broadcasting violence coverage may also drive some panic in several viewers. There are people who panic or cry upon seeing some scary images on violence scenes.
