Evaluation Question 2

I chose this actor to play the part of the older male, as he seemed right for the part. He has a facial hair which gives the connotations that hes more mature, hes also slim, white and westernised as are the other young couples from the films from my subgenre.

This actress is in her twenties so she fits the part as being in a  young couple, she's blonde which could suggest innocence. Shes also slim white and westernised like her onscreen boyfriend, so they represent everything that other films like Paranomal Activity do because the main characters fit into the same catagories.





The narrative of our film is a young couple just moving into a new house, they later realise that somethings wrong. There seems to be strange behaviour in the neightbour hood, and weird happening from inside the house too. This fits with the conventions of modern psychological horror films as most of them seem to be young couples being haunted because of their house of their family.

However, due to our inabiltiy to film with the original cast, the main characters needed changing. Instead of having a young couple, we used a young girl on her own which shows how much more vunerable she is. She wears a white shirt in the film to symbolise her innocence. Because shes on her own, the audience may feel more frightened for her, as she is unpretected from the threat that's haunting her.
