MY FINDINGS

From my findings of 12 user ratings on IMBD, I have discovered typical horror film

demographics. All the film ratings are a predominantly male audience which will

definitely indicate the general target market; males. This is particularly the case for slasher horror films such as Friday the 13th and Texas

Chainsaw 3D.

On each of the film ratings, only a small percentage of voters were under 18. This was

fairly unsurprising seeing as the certification for the majority of films was R meaning under 17’s

require an accompanied parent or guardian.

The largest age demographic on all of them was 18-29 and

again males made up the biggest percent and do in fact

make up the biggest percent for each age bracket.

Lastly, I found only a small percentage of those who are 45+ voted on the films suggesting they

will not be the main target audience.
