Screen Shots of the blank copies of the general and specific genre questionnaires.
These questionnaires contain questions about watching movie in general and also specifically about the thriller genre. I have conducted this piece of research in order to get a clear idea pf what people expect and enjoy to watch ad well as to help me potentially with my thriller opening.
I have found out that thriller movies are quite popular especially with the younger generation, although comedy and romantic are more preferred genres in general. Most people are also aware of the difference between horror and thriller however can sometimes mix the up. The initial reaction to thriller for lot of people is the Michael Jackson's thriller as it is an iconic representation of the thriller genre hence the it's title. I have also found out that most people prefer watching movies in the cinemas rather then at home and they visit the cinemas quite often. They know about a movie through word of mouth as well as promotional posters on billboards, buses etc. Also people prefer to see women as protagonist rather then 'damsels in distress' as the society have accepted them to be equal to men.
This will help me with certain aspects of my thriller opening.
