Now that I have changed over to a horror genre than a post-apocalyptic genre, I still need to find an approach or specific characteristic of the horror genre tthat I want to focus on for my film. For example, I believe the Halloween Movie intro is a great example of something I might want to do. I believe the pov killer idea is cool and I could incorporate it into my film. However I want to do more of a chase scene than just walking through a house.
This video provides a more in depth analysis of the Haloween movie I researched in my last blog post. I goes in depth into Michael's personality as the killer pov at the begginning of the film, and relates it to other slasher films of its time. Some of the other films similar to this is mainly the Scream movie, which I also went over before.
I also really enjoyed the effect of the mask where the screen went dark and the two eyeholes are visible in the camera. Also during the killing scene, you can see the POV of the child killer looking at his hand with the knife, being intrigued. Its very interesting how we are in the killers perspective and at the end of the opening scene, we go back to our usual audience POV. Another element I think is good to add is the eerie music when the watchers know something bad is going to happen like when Michael grabs for the knife in the kitchen.
