Lamb to the slaughter intro lesson
Here is a summary movie review of the Alfred Hitchcock version of Lamb to the Slaughter:

Her husband is depicted as distant and dismissive of Mary. When he tells her he wants a divorce, it is a complete shock to Mary's system.

Her husband seemed detached, which matched the ambiguity around his stated reason for leaving

Horror Narrative idea
A group of friends mocks horror films until one friend is possessed by a supernatural force. The force commands the friends to complete dangerous tasks or it will kill them. As the situation escalates, the friends realize the force lied about freeing their friend, who has already died.

The force finally departs after receiving something precious, saying it will meet them again, disrupting the friends' lives indefinitely.
Representation of stereotypes in thrillers

Conventions of the horror genre

These conventions include the use of young vulnerable victims, eerie settings that create unease, a "good vs evil" dynamic with a powerful villain chasing the heroine, the lone female victim being more vulnerable, screaming to create fear in both characters and audience, chase scenes that build tension, an unknown killer to generate mystery, identifiable costumes, weapons that threaten victims, isolation exposing characters to danger, effective use of sound and music, blood to add realism, death as a source of tension, dark settings for scary incidents, and reflecting existing societal fears.
How research impacted our ideas
Lucas Baxter is the protagonist hero in the horror film "Crossed Out". The film uses techniques common to the genre like hand-held cameras and an iconic weapon (axe). It follows a narrative structure where a haunting event from the killer's past returns to kill again, targeting the children of those who bullied the killer in the past. The film fits Todorov's theory of equilibrium being disrupted by a return of the repressed from the killer's past. Research found the primary horror film audience is youth aged 15-25 who prefer films with jump scares over cheap special effects.
Genre Research

applying narrative theory

For the "Trapped in Abyss" trailer, it identifies the victim hero as the main character seen smoking and running, the villain as an unseen voice speaking to the hero, and the princess as the blonde woman who falls victim to the villain.
For "Silent Hill Revelation: 3D," it identifies the villain as a disturbing little girl, the hero as the female protagonist seeking her kidnapped father, and the helpers as a male friend who is also kidnapped.

The document defines and provides examples of different types of irony.

The figures of speech
This document defines and provides examples of three figures of speech: onomatopoeia, personification, and irony. Onomatopoeia uses words that phonetically imitate sounds, like "sizzle" and "howl." Personification gives human traits to non-human things, like saying leaves "danced to the ground." There are three types of irony: verbal irony uses sarcasm, situational irony involves unexpected outcomes, and dramatic irony occurs when the audience knows something characters do not.
