Alice and I decided to watch some Horror openings whilst Avey and Rhiannon were absent today. The second film opening we decided to watch was The Grudge - Unsuspecting suicide from the year 2004. This film is different from the normal horror, as it was set in broad daylight. This also makes me think more about the setting, because instead of being filmed in a secluded area, its obviously in the middle of a busy city.
- Set in the day
- In the middle of a city - All silent except for the non-diegetic sound of cars.
- Traditional girl and boy - except boy is the one who dies
- Man commits suicide by jumping off the balcony - different because he didn't get killed but brought it upon himself
- Lots of people around - busy day - wanted attention
- blood - traditional horror prop.
I want you to think about inter-cutting and how the shots are linked together...come and talk to me
