In my short film, two teenagers take a video camera into a derelict and dilapidated building that is rumoured to be haunted, hoping to entertain themselves by getting scared. Once inside, someone - or something - locks the door behind them, and unexplained and terrifying things start to happen to them. Once they realise that there is no way out of the room, the film becomes a desperate struggle, not only to escape - but to survive.
Judging from the above synopsis, the film should be appealing to people because horror/thriller are such widely enjoyed genres of film. Also the main characters are teenagers, which is probably a large percentage of the audience of this film so they will relate to these characters, making the film more unsettling for them, which is what I want to achieve from this short film.
Because of the use of handheld video cameras, the film is more realistic and this, in turn, also makes it a more marketably 'scary' film for the audience.
