TRANSCRIPT

Repertoire of elements in relation to our genre.

Stalker-SlasherAmberCedric

Chantelle AChantelle L

Characters• Since this is a hybrid of two genres, our unique selling point comes from

our main character. • A psychopathic priest: Priest who is intent on bringing justice in his own

way to avenge on God’s behalf.• Suspected killer: Since the idea of a killer priest seems unimaginable, this

is the person police suspect to be responsible for the murders.• News Reporter: To report what’s going on and provides voiceover for the

trailer.• Ex-Homicide detective: Man comes out retirement to solve one more case• Other characters: Several victims (12in total with one main victim)

Audience (Target Market)• The target market is 15-28 and this film is mainly aimed at young

adults and obviously people who like horror and/or thriller films.• We expect that this film would appeal more to males and people

not deeply committed to the catholic faith as they may find the plot offensive.

• We are also targeting:o People who are into blood and gore o And people who enjoy a good plot twist which may have

contradictions within it.

Settings• The settings will be important in display our genreo Confession booth and the outside of a Church/Chapel (possible the inside as well tbc.)o A Basement (Showing physical plotting evidence that the priest would be using.)o The general outside area to display a dystopian future and the ensuing

chaos.o A room for the news reporter to be in when reporting the news.

Themes

• This film has a unique theme as the priest commits these crimes as his form of justice, however it isn’t a good v evil but more of hell on earth because there’s evil all around but the one place of sanctity and safety is more dangerous than being outside amongst the chaos.

• We also have the theme of crumbling society as since this is a dystopian future crime rates increase to record levels and the psychopathic priest is just one of many examples of people taking the law into their own hands.

Styles, Iconography and Narrative

• Our film follows similar styles to those of other stalker/slasher horror films, a psychotic killer, weapons, blood etc . In horror films there are a lot of close-ups in order to capture emotions and reactions of the characters which we will feature in the trailer.

• What makes our films stand out is the killer himself as for an audience this is not what you would expect in a typical killer which we hope will attract more people as this has never been done before

• .The narrative will be a voice over that will come come from the news reporter which we intend to use in our trailer to depict the chaos and destruction that the city is in.
