Research: Horror Genre

     I was looking over various genres that I could use for my film introduction I came across the horror genre. A horror film introduction uses certain elements that make it captivating such as the dark low-key lighting which creates an ominous atmosphere. There is also the use of disturbing sounds to enhance the atmosphere and invoke fear. An example of this is in Get Out where a distorted song is played to enhance the visuals of a black man getting kidnaped. All of these elements work together to create truly scary horror film introduction.
