Hounds of Love

Given the 'Crime, Drama, Thriller' genres and the plot of a teenager's horrific abduction and torture by serial killers, audience emotional responses are overwhelmingly dominated by **Anxiety**, **Fear**, and a profound sense of the **Disturbing**. The prolonged confinement and the depraved nature of the perpetrators create constant tension and dread. **Sadness** and **Empathy** are significant due to Vicki's suffering and her parents' desperate search, reflecting the strong drama elements. **Anger** towards the serial killers is also a prominent emotion. While there's a desperate glimmer of **Hope** for Vicki's survival and eventual **Relief** if she escapes, these positive emotions are hard-won and largely overshadowed by the pervasive grimness and psychological torment.
