3. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

- Would this be something that could be produced by a Hollywood studio? If yes then why and is it similar to existing products?

Our movie could be, as it has the conventions of a stereotype slasher movie. The easily relatable characters could work well with the teenaged audience and scare them. We believe Lionsgate could produce it.

Our Movie is similar to other slasher movies as it has the drunken teenagers, the creepy villain and the fear of the unknown.

- Would it be a TV movie?

No, I believe our movie could be on the big screen and get in a lot of money. It’s very rare that a brand new slasher franchise is created so I think this could intrigue audiences.

- Would it be an arthouse movie?

No, our film would not be an arthouse movie as it features stereotypes and is not realistic.

- Would it be an Internet only release?

Right now, it could be although it could also be tweaked and filmed more professionally, making it worthy of a larger launch.

- Why would it be released? Does it offer opportunities for franchises or merchandise?

As the major plot line of the full film could be about the killer rising from the dead, this could happen again and again causing for more sequels in the future. Merchandise could come from clothing and accompanying novels and videogames.

- Link your conclusions to a discussion of mise en scene (visual style) or your film noir/horror.

Lionsgate’s horrors are usually gory and are set in real world situations, such as the successful Saw series and Area 51. Our film is set in the real world and although it features returning from the dead this is based on real legends of bringing the dead back to life, using witches magic or curses.
