i am not starting to analyse some opening scenes and title sequences of out groups chosen genre which is horror/ thriller. However there are also many sub-genres to horror which i have found upon doing research to be teen horror, slasher, saranic, vampire, alien, evil children... etc. i also discovered that ther genre of horror is regulary crossed and linked with other genres, the most popular being science-fiction. Horrors are designed to provoke our worst fears, but at the same time entertain us. A man called Tim Dirks published a quote on his website of films saying ''the best horror films only imply or suggest the horror in subtle ways.". I also found out that the earliest horror films were gothic in style, and usually set in mansions or haunted castles. The characters generally included vampires, devils, ghosts, monsters, mad scientists etc. During my research, I also came across a list of notable horror film directors:
- Dario Argento
- John Carpenter
- Roger Corman
- Wes Craven
- David Cronenberg
- Tobe Hooper
- F.W. Murnall
