Horror Conventions

Horror Film’s Research and Conventions

Horror Films are unsettling films designed to frighten and panic, cause dread and alarm, and to invoke our hidden worst fears, often in a terrifying, shocking finale, while captivating and entertaining us at the same time in a cathartic experience.
Horror films effectively centre on the dark side of life, the forbidden, and strange and alarming events. They deal with our most primal nature and its fears: our nightmares, our vulnerability, our alienation, our terror of the unknown, our fear of death and dismemberment.
Characters are very important, having the leads as the main survivor. The enemy’s of the film, in my case the survivors, must have a unique “Killing Style” or a trademark, which for the infected, would be devouring their prey.
