Genre task

The task we were given was to watch the following film opening and apply the genre and the possible features that come with this.



The film opening for Harry Brown was very intense and created an aura of violence and crime. It first of all showed someone in their youth being peer pressured into doing drugs, presumably crack. This is showing message and outlines the outcome of this problematic lifestyle. This film is definitely one of my favorite films as it shows the reality of some youth of this world, the troubles of the modern era and how to approach them; unfortunately it also show the consequences of following the wrong path.

In this particular trailer we are instantly introduced with the 'typical' American girl with her outrageous over the top lifestyle, she has clearly been spoiled my her clearly rich father. Other then the information I have already stated I can not accumulate much about this film. This film doesn't suit my personal liked genre because it is mainly watched by younger children and I suppose that is the secondary audience. From what I can tell from this clip the film will be based upon a teenager experiencing many challenges of youth and overcoming them.

Guardians of the galaxy is one of my all time favorite movies, with is retro based music which sends you back to the twentieth century. This opening sums up the whole film, portraying the comedy side of the movie with the dancing and alternatively showing the serious action side. which involved full guns blazing battles and mysterious unknown alien creatures. My synopsis of the film is rationed down to Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy expanding the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe.

This is clearly a horror film because of the sinister movement and paranormal activities occurring in this woman's house. The ghost clearly wants something to aimed at her or someone she knows because it has latched itself to her. I don't know if you noticed but when she looked in the bath there was a reflection of someone else other then her, its the subtle but deliberate scenes like this that create a perverse atmosphere. Horror is a genre of fiction which is intended to, or has the capacity to frighten, scare, disgust, or startle their readers or viewers by inducing feelings of horror and terror. I have never actually watched this film but after this very exciting movie clip I intent to watch the movie.
