Concept Development

  • As ways of building tension we can use body language and dialogue based around the character's emotions, fears and instabilities.
  • Our strengths in filming are pre-filmic effects and innovative camera angles.
  • We are interested in psychological, supernatural and teen horror.
Psychological
  • "Adult fears",  that attack the audiences psychological security and safety e.g. kidnapping and human invasion.
  • Monsters take the form of humans.
  • Donnie Darko.
  • Sixth Sense.
  • The Hitcher.
Supernatural
  • Mainly focused on ghosts, people who are possessed.
  • Paranormal Activity.
  • The Exorcist.
  • The Poltergeist.
  • People watch supernatural horror for the need for excitement, the desire to feel intense emotions and distractions from every day concerns.
  • Provides visceral pleasure.
Teen
  • Final Destination.
  • Lost Boys.
  • It appeals to teenagers, which is the niche audience for horror.
