avoiding your phobia

home | maggots | vomit | aha, links!








Welcome.  This site is designed to help you avoid your phobia as portrayed in cinema.  Ever get a little anxious when a friend suggests watching a film you've not seen for fear that it contains your phobia (i.e. maggots, dairy, the religious right etc)?  Come here and review our database first to see if the movie* includes the dreaded theme!
 
*disclaimer:  i don't claim to have seen all films, so it cannot be guarenteed that a film not listed here will not contain your phobia.  but at least it is a step in the right direction*.
 
*another disclaimer: the right direction is in my view facing your (often irrational) fear and disengaging it.  but until you're ready to do that (or are willing to view your phobia, but would like to be prepared to face it before you must), this site may well prove a helpful tool.  i know i've always wished there were a database for alerting me to the presence of my phobia!
