2. BRIEF
• As a group we have came up with many ideas of what our horror movie will be based on,
a lot of our ideas are heavily influenced on famous horror films such as Saw, Paranormal

A super natural horror movie is generally based on spirits and ghosts which will play a part in
a humans life, usually they show the scary affect at has on an individual or group and which
