Our Film

We are planning on doing a horror, we intend to film at party, which will be closely followed by a killing. We want to do this at night, with the killers face never being shown, just his hands and his body. This is to keep the audience interested and waiting to find out who is the killer. The killer will be a serial killer, and each time he kills he is going to carve a number on his victims hands in order which they were killed, e.g. first person to be killed will have a 1, the second will have a 2 etc.

Horror Information

Horror films are films which wish to provoke fear and terror in the response of the audience. Such films usually use plots including the supernatural colliding with 'our world'. Otherwise the theme can be completely "supernatural" without any trace of reality. Horror movies usually include a central villain. Early horror are largely based on classic literature of the gothic/ horror genre, such as Dracula, Frankenstein, The Wolf Man, Phantom of the Opera and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Later horror films, in contrast, often drew inspiration from the insecurities of life after World War II, giving rise to the three distinct, but related, sub-genres: the horror-of-personality Psycho film, the horror-of-armageddon Invasion of the Bodysnatchers film, and the horror-of-the-demonic Hellraiser film. The last sub-genre may be seen as a modernized transition from the earliest horror films, expanding on their emphasis on supernatural agents that bring horror to the world.[1] - Wikipedia

Too much of this seems to be cut and paste from wikipedia or some other source - also I'm not sure you quite get what a chick flick is - we could do with having a chat, as your later plans seem to suggest a straightofrward scream-like horror - why not juuts do that?? (Mrs D)
