Analysis of the trailer 'Silent Hill'

I have researched psychological horrors and decided to do some research on Silent Hill (2006)


  • a lot of the story line is shown before any writing/credits are shown
  • the music gets louder and my intense as the plot comes to light
  • the conventional aspect of a young child is used, as it could portray the loss of innocence
  • the lighting is quite bright for a horror film, up until the last minute where it becomes darker
  • use of "secrets" "it" and "darkness"
  • possible ghosts and the unknown
  • sound effects of a heartbeat or footsteps, which sets up tension
  • at the start, it doesn't look like a horror film, as it shows a mother and daughter sat in a meadow
