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 center 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 revulsions, our terror of the unknown, our fear of death and dismemberment, loss of identity, or fear of sexuality

Ideas for the film (location) visit to Casterfield

I went to Casterfield with my school-mates and my subject teacher to take some pictures of the place and to get some ideas about where would be the best place to locate the film. I have got some ideas about the location where I will be setting the film. I have decided to locate the film in a place like Casterfield because it is a suitable place for horror films and a good location for the senario / idea that I have for this project. By visiting this place I have learnt that the location is one of the most important part of the film because the location gives an idea to the audience about the genre of the film and what the film is going to be about. The location must be suitable for the film. the location should help them to know what the film is going to be about. Overall I have decided to locate the film in a suitable place to make the film (opening scene) more realistic.
