Conventions of a Horror Movie

Orphan Poster
The conventional colours for the Horror genre would be black and red, the black to represent the darkness and red to represent blood and gore. Horror films have many different locations, they are mostly set in houses, graveyards, and night times for darkness. The conventional Costumes would be a mask and dark leather clothing for the bad person but the victim would have bright, peaceful colours to make them look innocent. For the props, they would use violent things, for cereal killers, they would use big sharp weapons like a machete, sometimes they use guns. Examples of Horror Films are Paranormal Activities, Orphan, Hostel.
