Original Horror Film
Chad isn’t your
every day guy; he rules the school, with every girl throwing themselves at him, every
girl wants him and every guy wants to be him, and for Chad life was good! The only problem being, all
the girls that Chad dates, seem to go mysteriously missing?! Chad simply states that these girls have left town
or moved schools, and, being Chad, nobody dares to question him, even the teacher’s
fall for his lies. Chad, being the player that he is, has worked his way through most of the popular girls
at his high school and now, he is on the prowl for something new, he decides to go to library, to find a new girl,
here he bumps into Kate, the classic smart nerdy girl, that has some attrictiveness to her.
Chad does what he does best and eventually persuades her to go on a date with him that evening! He picks her up in his car, and they head off to Chad’s place. Chad lives in the middle of nowhere, miles outside of town, he claims that the house has been in his family for generations, which is why it looks run down and old, although convinced, Kate still questions the place, seeing no real evidence off anyone living there.Chad continues to use his flirtatious nature to lure in Kate, part way through their date, Kate asks to use the toilet in which Chad agrees, he points he up stairs not giving her any real direction.
She is now alone, walking down dark mysterious corridors, she happens to notice a door with some dark stairs leading down to, what she assumes to be a basement, she continues on down the corridor, and on the way to the toilet she hears strange noises, sounds like people yelling for help, creaking noises, and whispering, she is scared but she gets to the toilet! When she comes downstairs Chad is nowhere to be seen... suddenly the lights begin to flicker and go out one at a time, as each light goes out there are flashes past the window, it seems to be a masked man heading towards the door, Kate runs not knowing what is truely going on, but can she escape in time?

Original Questionaire
1. Are you male or female?
2. What us your age?
3. Are you a fan of horror films?
4. How often do you watch horror films?
5. Where are you most likely to watch a horror film?
6. What do you enjoy most about horror films?
7. What entices you to go to the Cinema to see a film, instead of waiting for the DVD to come out or getting an illegal copy of the film?
8. What is your favourite sub-genre of horror?
9. Does having a star in the film make you want to see it more?
10. Do trailers and posters convince you to go and see a film?
Through the use of survey Monkey, I put together a list of 10 questions to put to my audience, this was done to be able to gather a sense of what people look for in a Horror film. I managed to get people of all ages to participate in my questionnaire, this giving me a good overall age range who have taken the questionnaire which helps me to design a product which would appeal to my target audience but one in which could also bring in a wider audience. From gathering feedback i will be able to create a product in which will satisfy a variety of age groups. Also finding out what peoples favourtie genre is will help me to decide which one I shall pursue.

Initial Group Ideas
1. Myself - Popular guy gets all the girls, girls go missing, guy gets
bored of hot girls and goes for a 'geeky' girl, takes her to his house in the
woods, she realises he is not normal and he has killed all the missing girls
and has to get out and escape from Him and his ‘troubled’ family before they kill
her.
2. Joe - Friends go to the woods for a camping trip, see a masked man
one night, then when they wake up one of the friends is missing, they then see
the masked man again and he 'kills' another friend. All the other friends
notice that the killer came when the other friend was absent so they kill him
but it turns out that the friend they killed was working with another friend
who he 'killed' and then he hunts them down.
3. Lewis - Group of friends go to a theme park for Halloween, just
before the theme park closes, they go to a newly opened horror maze, 4 come out
and 2 are left in there, they then wait until the closing time of the theme
park, they’re still not out so the 4 friends are forced to leave, the next day
the 2 friends are still missing and the other 4 realise they’ve been killed.
4. Steven - Geeky teenage girl/young adult is accidentally invited to a
Halloween party at the end of the week whilst standing in with the wrong group
of people, she then has visions and night terrors of people being kidnapped and
brutally murdered by some old man, when she comes to, these people have been
reported missing, no one believes her stories, and she is scared that this man
will come after her. She does not want to attend the party but is forced to by
her friend, and whilst at the party, the killer attacks, killing off the rest
of her classmates, leaving her to fight off the killer, being the stereotypical
virgin female heroin in the horror genre.
