Halloween Trailer Review

Name Of Film: Halloween

Year Released: 2007

Genre Of Trailer: Horror

The plot of the trailer is it shows what has happened since the last film whilst the murderer in the first film is prison and has just got out, it also briefly tells the plot of the new film and what the murderer is planning to do when he has got out of prison.

The good points of the film is that it uses collision cutting really well to get across the tense moments happening in the trailer. It also uses quick slow montage well to get across the jump scares and more horror moments in the trailer to get across the fact it is a pure horror film to attract fans of the genre and also fans of the previous film. It also uses the iconic music from the first film at the end of the film so if people watching the film will remember the first film by the iconic music.

The bad points of the film was again the lack of gore as there was only a few restricted narration shots to get across of it being a horror film but without those shots taken out wouldn't look anything like a horror trailer and like an action thriller trailer instead which doesn't reflect the genre of the trailer at all.

The score i would give this trailer is a 7/10 because it is a good trailer but lacks on the gore so does not portray as a modern horror film a bit like it's first one made in the 1980's which is understandable because it wants to attract the same audience who liked the original one.
