Horror- (chosen genre for opening two minutes)

For our opening two minutes to a film, we decided to do a horror.
Horror is typically a genre that creates a sense of panic and fear to the audience. This genre also rely on making the audience jump and keeping them on the edge of there seats through attempting to present there worst fears and nightmares. Many horror films we see tend to involve mythical characters such as ghosts. They usually involve alot of violence and bad language we we know through there high aged ratings. A few examples of horror films are Saw, A nightmare on Elm Street, Paranormal Activity, Scream, etc.

There are many different sub-genres of horror which consist of:

This genre is more realistic for the audience as they tend to be in there teens which makes it more thrilling for them as if it is something that they could experience. They would usually involve the typical teenage issues such as dating and partying.

Monster-Horror.
A monster-horror would typically involve the horror conventions and would have the same idea to scare the audience however would involve the mythical idea of a monster. This make it more thrilling for the audience although we know it would not be true.
