From your description, she really needs to see a psychiatrist (or a new one) ASAP. What you describe is very serious and requires proper treatment. This talk about horror movies, phobias, and so on is peripheral at best -- she needs to see someone who is qualified to treat psychosis now.
I have major anxiety problems (which require psychiatric treatment), but have never lost touch with reality. It sounds like she has, and this will only get worse. I've had a couple of good friends commit suicide under similar circumstances. Please make sure that she gets help soon.
