The genre of Film that my project falls under will be horror.
These kind of films seek to gain a negative emotional reaction from audience members by playing on their primal fears. They often feature scenes that startle the viewer, and the macabre (use of grim/ghastly mise en scene) and the supernatural (that which isn't subject to the laws of nature) are common themes. Therefore they can possibly overlap with the fantasy, supernatural, and thriller genres.
Horror films often deal with the viewer's nightmares, hidden fears, revulsions and terror of the unknown. Plots within the horror genre often involve the intrusion of an evil force, event, or personage, commonly of supernatural origin, into the everyday world. Themes or elements prevalent in horror films include ghosts, vampires, werewolves, curses, satanism, demons, gore, torture, vicious animals, monsters, zombies, cannibals, and serial killers. Conversely, stories of the supernatural are not necessarily always a horror movie as well.
