In our group we have decided to do a film with the genre of horror/thriller/ with the topic of clowns. In the process of thinking of the film description we had to do some research on the type of genre so we had a better understanding.
Similar Films
- 'It' Stephen King
- Killjoy
- Halloween
- American Psycho
- Saw
All these films are influential in many ways as they are either about serial killers or they are about clowns for the storyline. 'It' by Stephen King is the most influential film for us to make a similarity as the main storyline is about clowns and he is also a serial killer, which is a similar storyline to what our group has decided on doing.
Also in horror films they use similar storyline's which can be repeated, for example a family moving into a haunted house with children and then they experience paranormal activity and either the children or parents get possessed by a 'devil' or 'demon'.
Another typical horror film plot is a group of teenagers going on a trip and they gradually all get killed one by one, which may involve a cabin or a masked serial killer. they usually keep one person to last which will kill the murderer.
These are some examples of horror films which include typical aspects of horror films:
Some of these films include paranormal activity usually with children involved. They also tend to have a dark, long corridoor in the house also maybe a big clock or children's toys.
