amazon - Who's Buying What Horror
As well as researching rented horrors, we decided it would also be a good idea to see which are currently the best selling from various DVD selling websites. We first looked at Amazon as this is a very creditable distributor. However, the most important reason we looked at Amazon first is because of our target audience. Many teenagers and young adults go to Amazon to buy anything they can't easily find in town or the local shops. Amazon's current "best selling" film in the horror genre is 'Breaking Dawn: Part 2.' This film's sub genre is Vampires/Romance.
We also looked at another well-known website, play.com. This website showed us that their current best selling horror DVD isn't actually a film, it's a box set for the TV series 'Walking Dead: Season 3.' This film's sub-genre is Apocalyptic and Post-apocalyptic fiction.
Many teenagers and young adults buy their films from these two websites, which is why we thought it would be a good idea to look at them to find out which horror films are consumed the most by our target audience.
We have concluded that there is a gap in the market for a paranormal film, which justifies our choice to film one.
