Horror Trailer Analysis
Name of film: Cloverfield Year released: 2000
Genre of trailer: Horror, Sci-Fi Your Mark: 7/10
At the start of the trailer there a party being filmed with a handheld camera suddenly there is a big explosion causing everyone to go outside and some weird creature which you don’t get to see is destroying the city.
I thought this was a good trailer as it doesn’t tell you too much of the story but it gives you a big moment at the end to make the audience want to go see it just to know what it is that is destroying the city. The use of the handheld camera makes the film seem more real and give the audience a sense that they are in the film. I wouldn’t use this type of camera style for my trailer because I don’t think the handheld camera works well with an action horror. For our trailer we are doing a scene trailer so this helps to give us an idea of how good a scene trailer must be.
The trailer is good for an action film but it doesn’t show many aspects of a horror film and shows more of the action.
