2. TYPICAL TARGET AUDIENCE
The target audience for many psychological
thrillers are 18+
This is because they generally include vast
amounts of violence and many different forms
of psychological issues which can be
disturbing for many younger viewers.
Its typical to find warnings on the back of the
DVD cover which will state the rating and why
e.g. contains extreme violence or sexual
scenes
3. OUR TARGET AUDIENCE
The audience that we hope too attract will be in the age group of 15-
24, if we are looking into a closer niche audience it would mainly be
aimed at young male and females who especially enjoy psychological
thrillers.
Our film opening will have a rating of a 15 because it will contain
aspects of violence, murder and darker subject matters that are not
suitable for younger viewers.
However it will not be rated as an 18|+ because the main content
wont be explicit enough.
