Typical Conventions of Horror Films

-Dark Colours and Lighting
-Male Murderer
-Female Victim
-Some sort of weapon
-Scary music/sounds
-Creepy?


As a group we have been discussing conventions of horror films and these are a few of the ideas we came up with.
In our opening, we were saying we would like to involve some of these, but to make our opening different, also challenge some of them.
For example, we will be using the dark lighting and female victim, but instead of having a male killer we also have a female one. We hope that this difference will make the reader feel like this film has never been done before and they will therefore want to see the rest of the film.
