Deciding the genre of our film


Horror or Thriller?

Initially as a group we were keen on the idea of a horror film opening. We researched this genre thoroughly by looking at previous directors and their work, key conventions, analysing the first nine frames and iconic sounds.

Looking back and observing our film opening, we have come to conclude it fits better into the thriller genre due to the atmosphere and suspense of our storyline. Also as our storyline developed we also established this.

Surprisingly the horror and thriller genre have similar conventions within their films such as the sounds, setting and stereotypical characters.
