Evaluation 5

 The Sixth Sense is a thriller that attracts young adults because it is known to build tension and young adults enjoy the sensation of being scared, where they are used to being exposed to it. Also the plot twist at the end is a twist that everyone is always stunned about and is so unexpected. We included tension through the use of music in our opening as that is something that a lot of young adults like.

The film Se7en attracts a young adult audience because it is a crime film with a lot of twists and also has a psychological aspect to it. This film is liked by our audience type as the survey results showed that the second most liked sub-genre of thriller was Psychological. There is also a lot of enigma used throughout this film, so we made sure to include some sort of enigma in our opening, as this is known to be likable by young adults.

Shutter Island is a thriller that has a lot of psychological and crime aspects to it, and since this was the two most popular sub-genres on the survey that we had people complete, this film would appeal to young adults. We took the crime idea from this film and applied it our own as it is fairly easy to apply crime to a thriller opening, Whereas it would be more complicated applying psychological.
