Challenging horror film conventions- In nearly every horror film there’s a villain that is feared by many, most of the time the villain conceals his true identity by wearing a mask e.g. scream, Halloween and the saw series etc it creates a barrier between the villain and his victim because he is seen more scary and mysterious. I wanted to be different, so I’ve decided to stray from this typical horror aspect, by not really introducing a main villain but instead showing anarchy and revealing messages within the trailer that will say things that will express the chaos within the victims e.g. corruption, insanity, sickness and the struggle to resist. This will be more terrifying because the audience will be more terrified by their imagination than any character I could show on the screen. This will make the film more of a psychological horror.
