Box Office Mojo is a website which records box office takings of all movies, we decided to do some research into this site to gain some feedback on our Genre.
From the image above you can see the different sub genres of horror, the sub genre supernatural is the most popular one as you can it contains the most movies in that section (114). The msot popular movie in the section is 'Sixth Sense' which is what inspired us to create a supernatural / paranormal movie as its the most popular genre. Also you can see that the sub genre supernatural has made $293.5 in profit which is nearly double the other genres so its also a very successful genre of film which is the aim of making our teaser trailer to sell our movie therefore is this is the sub genre maintaining the most profit then we aim to follow by this.

In the sub genre Supernatural you can see the most popular films which show 'The Exorcist' as the second most popular film. Our teaser trailer is inspired on the film 'The Exorcist' as we was attracted to the eye catching shots and editing from this film, the fact that this film is also rated the second most popular film in supernatural from a world wide audience shows us that our film would be very popular in the media due to its sub genre and style of shots.
