The title that we chose for our film is 'Final Deadline'
My group and I decided that this title was a clever title to use since it is a play on word. For instance,the first meaning is literal, the students have a deadline to hand in their media coursework. The second meaning is expressed in the word 'Dead' which links into the title. This relates to the trailer where all of the students get killed by one of their fellow students.
Our title relates well to our target audience since it's about the final piece of coursework that's needed to be handed in. All of our target audience can relate to the meaning of this title, which makes it quite successful.
In our research we found that lots of Slasher/Horror movies related to a specific time on the calendar. Such as, Halloween, Friday the 13th, Black Christmas, Valentine's Massacre. Moreover, further research into the texts showed that these dates relate back to an event that causes the killer to be out for revenge. For example, Halloween is the exact time Michael Myers the 'psychotic killer' , gets institutionalise and comes back 'for a mindless rampage'.
