codes and conventions for a horror film opening

depending on the type of horror film it is the opening can be different. for example if its a slasher film it is highly likely that someone will die within the first 5 minutes. if its a zombie horror than usually the cause of the infection or curse is shown within the first 5 minutes.


  • lots of shaky camera footage
  • scary suspense music
  • lots of shot changes and quick editing
  • main character is introduced
  • villan introduced
  • extra is killed off
