Inspirations For Our Thriller Opening


A main thriller aspect we have planned to use in our thriller openings is ambiguity. We want to portray the idea of ambiguity through five character's body parts. During our product research we made the extension to look at films other than thrillers to find wider ideas and further inspiration therefore, researched the comedy "Breakfast Club". The results of our audience research from our target audience "16-20" year olds showed that 8/9 enjoy the genre of comedies therefore to respond to our audiences preferred style we chose to take elements of this comedy, the cast of five teenagers who are at first strangers to each other. Young adults are also the main audience for franchisers such as "The Hunger Games" in which there is a battle of the fittest between the characters; a theme that we also feature in our film.
 

Another thriller element that we want to portray in our thriller opening is a clinical effect. This idea reminded us of the horror "Human Centipede". We researched this horror and saw that it related to our ideas. The idea of a character acting in a doctor type role and the idea of a group of people getting harmed were similar. We have chosen to include a group of teenagers as our main characters - as in "Breakfast Club" - who will ultimately have to fight for survival
