Research into Slasher Horror

Halloween 6 (1995)

In this particular clip, the scene is very short and the death scene is very quick. The use of close ups on the faces are effective as it shows emotion in the womans face as she dies allowing the audience to empathise. It zooms into her face as her face grows more worried and as it zooms in we see the killer get closer and closer behind her. It quickly cuts to the killer grabbing her by the throat. What makes the scene effective is that as soon as the killing is over it plays a certain tune, which is the theme song of the actual film. The song is easily identifiable as the Halloween theme and also killings within the Halloween film series which ties the film together. This is interesting for us to look at as a group as by doing something like this we could also make our project identifiable.
