Rating
Metacritic is a website which rates the latest films, music, tv shows and games available. It was created in January 1999. The green, yellow and red is colour coded on the website to show the rating number and what the critics think. On Metacritic they ask for peoples thoughts on the films, music, tv shows and games. They get many different peoples rating not just from one group. Which can help us to improve products for our target audience e.g horror films. It gives a specific genres that people like and the average amount using the rates on Metacritic.com. They use the research from around the world not just in one country. This helps the film companies to manage their audience world wide and improve to fit the demand.

We found on Metacritic that the best horror films are to do with witches and zombies. Example of this is the new film The Witch which is due to be released in 2016. This film has been rated 90 out of 100. But paranomal films do not seem to be doing so well with Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension being given 30 out of 100. Many of the films that are being produced are not meeting the horror audiences requirements.
Through this research I have found out that my target audience likes films that are based on ghosts, ghouls , zombies and witches which are all in super natural films.We will need to make a films that will be supernatural and not something like paranormal which long with footage from day to day. The subgenre they like is Supernatural. |
