WHICH POSITIVE, CLEVER OR INTERESTING ASPECTS DO YOU THINK YOU COULD INCLUDE IN YOUR OWN TRAILER? WHAT GENERIC FEATURES ARE FULFILLED WELL?

·         The trailer tells you enough about the plot but not enough to know the whole storyline.

·        It keeps you on the edge of your seat because you’re waiting and expecting something to happen.

·         The fact that it stated it was based on a true story makes it all the scarier.

·         It makes you jump several times so it sells horror

WHICH ASPECT OF THE TRAILED DID YOU THINK WERE UNSUCCESSFUL, AND WOULD PUT OFF ITS TARGET AUDIENCE? HOW IS IT DISAPPOINTING?

·         It focuses a lot on the paranormal aspects with the séance which is great but we want to know why they’re having it. Fairly confusing.

·         They should play more on it being a true story through keep suggesting it throughout the trailer because when it’s based on a true story, it always makes horrors scarier to approach.

WHAT DO YOU RATE THE TRAILERS SCORE? WHY DID IT RECEIVE THAT MARK?

I rate it an 8.  These types of movies, the psychological horrors with paranormal occurrences is very enticing, I prefer this genre of horror. And the fact it’s based on a true story makes it a lot scarier. There are a lot of jumpy sections so it sells horror. The fact that the main character is a teenager makes it appeal more to me, as we’re the same age.
