Conventions Of Horror Films



From the research that i have carried out,
watching both horror films and trailors i am now
able to identify the following conventions of the
horror genre. Horror films aim to elicit the emotions of fear, horror and terror from the audience. There are many conventions of horror films, for example, death, violence, weapons, blood and the supernatural characters. Many films also include the central villain.
In a large amount of horror movies, it is not just solely the genre of horror but a lot of them involve science fiction, fantasy, black comedy and thrillers.
