subgenre
The subgenre I have chosen is supernatural/psychological
horror. Employing this genre into my horror movie, I will aim to
create discomfort by exposing common universal psychological
emotional vulnerabilities and fears. This sub-genre includes
ghosts, demons, or other depictions of supernatural
occurrences. Often, Supernatural-Horror films combine
elements of religion into the plot. Common themes in
Supernatural-Horror films include the afterlife, the devil, and
demonic possession.
Example – The Excorcist, the Ring, the Omen
