Research:
After a lot of research was done, our group and I have decided we want to create a film opening based on horror. We truly believe that we can create an outstanding film opening since this genre largely differentiates from the other genres. Also, we all are comfortable with this specific genre and have come up with the conclusion that horror will be the genre that we can reach are full potential since its numerous features it has.

Horror:
Films under horror are designed to create panic by seeking our biggest fears and make us jump out of our seats. Even though they are meant to frighten, they also create suspense and interest which is what everyone loves. For this genre, I choose The Nun & The Boy. Throughout my research, I was stuck on the Secrets of the Horror Genre since I found it to be so interesting while reading it. It talked about how the creation of characters is extremely important and how it should be structured. One of the characters is the monster/creature which creates all the conflict and the scary vibes. Even though there may be multiple characters, there’s always one specific victim which is faced by impossible odds or a monster that is possessed by evil. In any horror films, there is always one simple question to ask: Who will win, hope or hell?

The Nun:
The Nun is an extremely popular movie in the realm of horror films because of it’s great techniques and special effects incorporated. Sister Irene and Sister Victoria come up against a malevolent force in the form of a demonic nun and the main victims of the film since they two have two risk their own faith and very souls. The Nun is the antagonist which really helps establish the film with scary parts by acting as an evil presence in the film. The location of the film really helps establish the tone. To further explain this, the setting takes place in Romania’s Carta Monastery in but the place was not used since the 15th century. Moreover, since the place is abandoned, the film shows a dark place where the only source of lighting are tourches. These character elements and the setting creates a freaky feeling throughout the film and helps develop this spooky genre. The picture below shows what the setting is like.

The Boy:
The Boy is another famous movie that is extraordinarily popular in the horror community. The monster or the alarming antagonist of the film is a doll which seems to be alive. Greta is supposed to be babysitting the doll and following a list of strict rules. However, she fails to follow them and has to pay the consequence by believing the doll is alive. Greta is the victim and the Boy is the antagonist. The film takes place in a large house where it’s only occupied by Greta and the Boy. The extensive amount of space can create a terrifying feeling to what’s going to come next and from where. All these elements helps establish the horror genre in these specific ways mentioned that differentiate from all other genres. The picture below shows how the odd monster/doll looks like.
