Questionnaire results
The majority of people who answered the questionnaire enjoy most about horror slashers is the suspense and tension that is created within the film. They also prefer to see the pacing of the film to be both fast/intense pace and slow/tense pace as the majority of the audience like the exhilaration they experience but also the element of dread.
The majority of people said what they dislike about horror slashers is that there is too much gore and a weak plot/narrative.
The majority of people who answered the questionnaire said what makes the antagonist scary is the antagonist being big, strong, wearing a scary mask and the antagonist being unpredictable.
Overall, these results tells me and my group what the target audience would like to see within a horror slasher. Me and my group will use these responses to help us create a successful horror slasher film. We will make the antagonist big and scary by the antagonist being bigger than the victims and by him wearing a scary mask, black costume, having a knife for a weapon and also making the antagonist unpredictable (out-smarting the victims by him jumping out at them and hiding in areas where the victims will run to when he is chasing them).
We will make the narrative interesting and include some gore but not much as we do not want to detract the audience away from the film but at the same time we want to include gore as it is expected within a horror slasher as it is a code and convention of a horror slasher.
We will make the film have pacing elements of intensity and tension which we will include chase scenes and also include point of view shots of the antagonist getting towards the victims which the victims are unaware of the antagonist coming towards them.
