- Most horror movies are shot at night with as many people fear the night/dark also most horror movies are dark to create a scary atmosphere.
- Some films are shot in black and white so they focus on all the dark colors, so for example a man face could be hiding because of the shadows.
- Handheld camera movements is used when they want to create the effect of being in the charecters shoes to give the first person view, the movement is very shaky.
- For a horror movie they use allot of jump cuts to create a fast cuts to create a jump factor or to get a reaction out of the audience.
- With the research that i have done i have found out that certain characters are the main way that people recognize the movie.
- Chucky from (Child's Play) is a killer doll
- Jigsaw from Saw is a psychological torturer
- Michael Myers is a slasher that kills with his knife
- Freddy krueger is a undead dream demon who can enter people's dreams and kills them
- Dracula a classic vampire killer
Music/Sound:
- Sound is very important as it creates the correct atmosphere you would hear screeching violins or crashing chords, you would hear dark and ominous, also the sound would be fast to increase suspense and audience engagement.
