Thir13en Ghosts 2001
Is a film about people who go into a house to retrieve something but as they do they unleash the ghosts in which are trapped their resulting in them being killed. this was a average horror film for me but was good as it showed ghosts as that is one of the things which make me scared within movies.
2002 was a good year for horror films i feel as they created a lot of movies in which i found very entertaining plus they made a few very successful horror in this years
28 days later 2002
Is a film about a man who wakes up hospital and as he walks out he can not see anyone and is in deserted London and then he finds out there is an infection which turned people into zombie like characters and he must escape to survive. this was entertaining for me as it all came together nicely and was very smooth in the way next sequences occurred.
dog Soldiers 2002
Is a film about a military exercise in which it goes wrong. i have not seen this film but i have heard it is a very entertaining film to do with ware wolves.
resident evil 2002
is a films about a experiment which ends up going wrong and the people who come in contact with a substance become zombies. i enjoyed these movies a lot as they were entertaining because of how they were trapped and had to escape i also enjoyed the sequels and liked how they linked together.
Is a story about a video in which a girl is and anyone who watches the tape will get killed by a girl. this film for me was different as it was around a tape in which the killer would come but also i found it entertaining. This also made me scared to look at fuzzy screens as a child.
Freddy V Jason 2003
This film is where the two classics Freddy Crueger and Jason come together in which they start of as a team and then turn against each other in a battle. For me this film was okay but was not as good as the original films in which they were separate in.
Alien V Predator 2004
This is also a film in which two classics alien and predators came together as they show there rivalries and how different they are. Unlike Freddy V Jason i think that this collaboration came together a lot better and is an very entertaining thing.
Saw 2004Is a film where there is a serial killer but he does not kill his victims he tests them to do painful things for them to release themselves. this is interesting as it not the same. The first one for me was probably the best out of all of the sequels and they gradually got worse as they brought out more of the saw films.
30 Days of night 2007
Is a film about when vampires come into a village in which it is a season where it is very heavy snow and they can't get out. i liked this film because they are trapped and have to try and find a way to escape.
Paranormal Activity 2007
Is a film about a couple where a demon happens to be there and has an obsession with the girl and ends up trying to possess here. this film was very good as it builds tension very well also the plot of the film was quite enjoyable and once suspense had been built they would make it very good and make you jump
Eden Lake 2008
Is about a couple who are trying to go on holiday by the lake and then they end up being terrorized by a group of teenagers when they accidently do something which causes the teens to get very mad and attack them
The plot After a family is forced to relocate for their son's health, they begin experiencing supernatural behavior in their new home, which turns out to be a former mortuary.
This film is about a crazy man who decides to kidnap strangers and try and make them into a centipede by joining them together. For me this film was very disgusting which could be seen as good from a horror point of view it was very gory and was not a film i enjoyed.
Fright night 2011
Is a film about a boy who has a new neighbour move in and he believes he is a vampire. this was a entertaining move as i had not scene the original and the story was very good.
The devil inside 2012
In Italy, a woman becomes involved in a series of unauthorized exorcisms during her mission to discover what happened to her mother, who allegedly murdered three people during her own exorcism. This film was quite entertaining until the end where it was very silly and did not fit in with the film at all
Sinister 2012
Found footage helps a true-crime author realize how and why a family was murdered in his new home, though his discoveries put his entire family in the path of a supernatural entity. This film was good as it came together well at the end and was just good in general.
Throughout my research in this topic i have noticed the difference in horror films over time and the similarities for example over the years films have been based on the originals made much earlier and they have used the same ideas for remakes but the differences are that they have adapted greatly and a lot more techniques are used to create fear for the viewer. from the films i must say my favorite films where in the 1970's era as this is when for me the best classics and the min horror movies were originally made. Also i feel in this present time now horror films have become more demon and possession based where as in previous years they would be more psychopath and more physical viewing based this just shows how horror films must adapt to keep interest for its audiences. I also found out from the research is as the time has gone on in the films the amount of complexity has grown a lot this may be to make it feel like it is not predictable.












Your research into the history of horror films is god Deet. You have included a mix of images and text although, as you progress, I want to see more evidence of inveniveness in the presentation of your work.
ReplyDeleteI cannot find any evidence of your audience research as I look at your blog this morning. Where is it? Can you make sure this is on your blog for Wednesday's lesson please.
