Horror/Thriller films are known to be cliche and over used, in my research, locations are a main cliche that directors fit to.
Some of these locations are -
Houses - (The Clockwork Orange)
Forests - (The Last House On The Left)
Empty rooms - (Saw)
Main city locations - (Panic Room)
Castles - (Van Helsing)
Lakes - (Friday The 13th)
Hotels - (The Shining)
Schools - (Tormented)
Countryside - fields, trees etc - (The Crazies)
Graveyards - (Cemetery Man)
Churchs - (The Unborn)
Asylums - (Shutter Island)
Hospitals - (28 Days Later)
Deserts - (The Hills Have Eyes)
Theme Parks - rollercoasters etc (Final Destination 3)
From conducting this research, i have learnt that location is essential i making a good horror film and it will be an essential part of the research for our coursework.
