From viewing the top bought films from amazon we found that supernatural was the most bought genre of film. With the film 'The Uninvited' being top of the list (supernatural) we made the conclusion that supernatural is an effective type of horror. From discovering this we have decided to chose the genre of Supernatural/Horror as it was the most popular type of horror. This means that our film will appeal to a wide range audience as from our discoveries on amazon a lot of people are interested in supernatural. Our OTS will include a supernatural themed killer who is not really living. TB
These are amazons top bought horror films. Date taken 20th Nov. The highest top bought film at the moment is the set of five different horrors which did not help us in our planning as it did not make a clear set genre so we decided to focus in on the second most popular which is 'The Uninvited' which is in the supernatural genre.

these were some of the reviews from amazon on the supernatural thriller 'The Uninvited'. The film has many five star ratings meaning it is popular so we looked into some of the comments to see why it is popular and to maybe take some idea and learn new tricks in making a supernatural film be as terrifying as it can be. One review read 'I enjoyed the fantastic thrills all the way through it and the jump out of your skin moments' We can encorporate this in our OTS as we have found that the audience love a jump and scare. They also like the suspense that builds into one point which makes them 'jump out of their skin' We could do this by making some suspense filled scenes where our killer (the caretaker) jumps out on the victim TB
