What's Popular
When we plan which sub-genre of horror we want to create, we think it would be a good idea to look at what is currently popular.
Renting DVDs has recently become more favoured than buying, as it is often cheaper and you can watch more movies for your money. Therefore, we decided it is logical to also look at which DVDs are being rented as well as horror movies which are being bought.
On of the leading DVD renting sites is LoveFilm, so we decided to check out which horror movies are being rented out, but more importantly, what sub-genre they fit into.
Our results showed that the current film from the horror genre to be rented the most is 'World War Z,' The sub-genre for this film is Zombies. This is unfortunate as this may be quite difficult to reproduce using the equipment we have as it is heavily based on CGI.
Using this research, we have decided to make a paranormal film as there is a gap in the market for it and doesn't involve the use of CGI.
