Target audience demographic
With the film being part of the horror genre, the primary
target audience is 18-45 year olds. By having a target audience of 18 +, this
means that we are able to involve more explicit content. This will be helpful
due to the fact that the main codes and conventions that can be seen in the
horror genre involve a lot of blood, which could be seen as inappropriate for
anyone under the age of 18.
The main gender of the target audience for the film will be
males. This will be that the horror genre stereotypically appeals more to males
than females due to the mature themes that are represented.
