Independent Movie
Texas Chainsaw Massacare- 1974
This is the original of the Texas Chainsaw, the director of this is Tobe Hooper, he was born in Austin, Texas. In this film there is a very obvious villain and there were possible, and in this movie there are only white people connoting the fact that they were still not in terms with the coloured people. The narrative of this movie is action based, due to the fact that there is a man with a chainsaw attacking people. The production value is low as their budget is seen to be low too.It is set in the countryside where is kind of local this shows that they did not spend a lot of money on the setting, this furthermore makes it realistic making it creepier, and the costumes are all normal clothes yet again they did not spend money on costume. Especially the villain who is wearing a mask that doesn't seem to have much scary effect on it. The cast in this movie are all unknown actors and actress, this furthermore makes it an independent movie. Texas Chainsaw is known to be a classic movie due to the fact that it doesn't follow up with the genres of other horror movie, such as , one of the characters called Sally gives the creepy person a ride and automatically regrets it. Unlike this other horror movies would have them pick up a cursed object etc...Tobe was aiming to have a PG rating as he didn't show the horrifying parts but the aftermath of it, however he got an R rating due to how horrifying it was without showing the gory parts. The trailer starts with saying that "What happened is true" they purposely say this due to the fact that this scares people, this is a typical thing to do in horror movies as they will say that this is a ' true story' which terrifies the audience since they think this may happen and this is not fictional and made up. It starts with a dark tune furthermore connoting the horror in this movie. The first thing we see is action where there is a person running away but has run into the villain. In the background there is a creepy laugh with the image of a skeleton's hand, this slow moving camera moreover adds in the dramatic theme into this. The music in the background sound very mechanic which adds in with the chainsaw concept. As the trailer goes on we see the women getting taken away, by the villain she is consistently screaming which adds in the horror in this, as when she is screaming it makes it scary for them. And then there is a the hanger scene, the audience knows what is going to happen this then horrifies them. The trailer is very fast paced which connotes the pace at which the action is. It then at the end comes up the "how can you stop screaming?" this rhetorical question makes the audience think that they will scream throughout the movie.
The Poltergeist- Comparison
This is written by the same person as 'Texas Chainsaw Massacare', Tobe Hooper. Unlike the Texas Chainsaw there are more effects shown in this trailer this is could connote the how this is now not an independent movie. They have used a lot of money a lot money due to the fact there is more effects on it then Texas Chainsaw. However, it was said that Tobe Hooper did not really direct the movie as shown is this source http://bloody-disgusting.com/movie/3447116/tobe-hooper-pretended-direct-poltergeist-steven-spielberg/. In this trailer there is no sign of the actual thing that is haunting them this adds in the mystery of the haunting.
Mainstream
The Avengers Assemble
This is the first Avengers, this is where all of the superheroes got together to create this team called avengers. This is a Marvel movie, this industry is very popular due to the fact that people are more into the hero villain aspect, there are also superheroes at that is all in one movie which is good for the Marvel fans. This is action based, you can tell that they spent a lot of money on this due to the fact that there are many effects shown in movie as well as the setting must of cost a lot too. There are existing audiences which are the Marvel Fans of the other superheroes movie. In this movie there are obvious stars starring this movie as they were previously successful in their own superhero movie. There are a lot of effects that shows that this is an action movie. Audience are targeted through previous movies, as they will know that their favourite superhero will be playing in this which indicates that they want to watch it. This is continued from their comic books, this therefore adds into their previous fans who likes the fact that there are movies on them, because the generation now is not is not into books as much as the other generation. This generation is more technology based, so movies will appeal to their target audience.
