My target audience is primarily 15 - late twenties. This is because it is the type of film many people in this age group enjoy watching. People of this age enjoy being scared, in suspense and intrigued by an interesting storyline. For example, I asked ten 16 year olds what type of thriller they prefer. I did this by giving them 5 thriller films of different sub genres.

• Sci Fi thriller: District 9
• Psychological thriller: Donnie Darko
• Action thriller: Casino Royale
• Religious thriller: Da vinci Code
• Crime thriller: Reservoir Dogs

Suprisingly, Donnie Darko recieved the most votes with 4 people voting it as their favourite film in this list. Casino Royale recieved 2, District 9 recieved 2 and both The Da Vinci Code and Reservoir Dogs recieved 1.

This survey may not have been a fair test as the people surveyed may not have been very different from eachother. I should have asked more people from a range of different ages in my target audience. However, my results show that the Psychological thriller is the most favourable of these sub genres, so I will incorporate psychological elements into my film.

I think this may be the most enjoyable Sub genre to my audience because it takes thought to understand and they are very engaging films. It requires the audience to concentrate amd think about the plot. The plots are also frequently dark and twisted, which intrigues the audience. Personally, my favourite is psychological thriller also.
