Research & Planning: Horror Films at the Cinema

As a part of my research I am going to look at what horror films are on at the cinema and see how many horrors are being shown at the time coming up towards christmas. This is good research for me as then I can consider the release date that will be included on my trailer and poster and I can see when horror films are usually released.

The horror films on at the cinema at the moment.

• Paranormal Activity 3
• Contagion
• Demons Never Die
• Apollo 18
• The Awakening
• Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark

This shows that a fair few horror films are released around Halloween time and maybe a bit later. Horror films usually begin to fade out of being at the cinema around christmas time as usually family films are shown and are released around then.
