I believe there are aspects of our film that are much similar to the opening scenes from the film ‘The Strangers’. This is because to begin with you are not quite sure what is happening but you will find our later in the film. However the title sequence to this film is also the ending, which is not something we did. To begin with they use establishing tracking shots of the area which is similar to ours and then later on everything becomes more sense as we are able to understand what the begin was about. When other have watched our film, they have always mentioned they thought the girl to begin with is sinister or up to something that they must be award of. I believe this is similar to the start of ‘The Strangers’ where the first thought of the boy scouts is, what are they up to? We should be award of this. And in both cases you find out that actually these are the good characters, but that second thought makes the audience more connected with the character, I believe, as they doubted them at first and then realized this was wrong so feel they have made some connection with this character.
Like the strangers our film is also a Horror and both appeal to the same type of audience. Most would consist of viewers seeking a thrill and not many who would be following a particular actor and actress or necessarily a director, but these workers would usually specialize in Horror when being part of these films. As we are an independent company and this is our first product we will only be appealing to the thrill seekers and Horror fans, but with a good distributer we should gain some more recognition and attract other whom may not of watched our film at first.
