The house on the left

The genre of the movie is clearly shown as it is shown in an issolated place and the fact that the camera is hand held and it is three teenagers hanging out having fun shows that the will possibly be killed is the music was not involved then you would not thikn it was a horror. The production values used are 'This spring' and 'Coming soon' and at the end shows who directed it produced it screen played it and so on.

The target audience is shown to be young teenager aged between 17 to 25 as this is how old the characters look except for the mother and father, even though this is shown to be family fighting for their lifes it is ot targeted for the family. as wel as having dialogue it feature s inte titles asking the audience questions which we could actually answer "what lengths would you go to save your family?"

The music at the beginning is two single notes on a piano repeating as the audience finds out who the characters are. The music chnages when three villians walk in to the room there is a thud and a note held which sounds 'woblly' there are thuds when it chnages to different clips silence when the villian is talking and builds up again, the music finally starts when the 'Final girl' runs away the typical build up and big noise and then going back to random thuds un till the final girl turns up again then there is a mix of music thuds, light piano music, an actual song with lyrics showing the connection between the family as well as the typical noises you here i nthe horror.

there is no voice over but dialogue throughout showing the plot and key speaches to show both sides of good and evil. With the dialogue it shows us there is a case of the monstercoming out of the good people in this case the mother and father to save their daughter and themselves.

The difference with this ofical trailer and a teaser is that we get the full plot of what is goig to happe so we can bond wit hthe characters more it gives the audience a bit of everything inter titles music the plot and the scare factor.
