Props In Horror Films And My Film Opening

There are many different kinds of props that are often used and associated with horror films, and ones in which the audience would expect to see when watching a horror film. These kind of props include knives, fake blood, saws, guns, gloves, cobwebs, skeletons, bones. These are the things that we often find when watching horror films.

   

Sometimes, there are props used which you wouldn't necessarily expect in a horror film. They can be used to create an effect, as they must relate to the topic of the film in some way. These could include things like a TV, a mobile phone, a piece of jewelry, a book, a piece of clothing, a radio, a car etc.

                

 

In my film opening, I didn't really need to use any of these kinds of props. This was because the purpose of the opening was to portray normality within the group of friends. This is shown up until the kidnap scenes, although no significant props are needed until later on in the film.
