Audience Targeting

The stereotypical audience for a Slasher Horror are young teenagers who like blood and gore. They are typically callled "Teenage Sex Horrors" because its usually teenage main characters and they end up having some sort of sexual activity and then there's a massacre.

AGE
Our film is targeted at is mainly teenagers, so around 15-19 years old. I have chosen this because that is the age of most of the main characters so the audience can relate to them. Also they usually contain some sort of sexual activity and people around this sort of age would be thinking about that.

GENDER
I think these films would be targeted more at males then females. I think the blood and gore would appeal more to males and also the sexual content. The female character are usually extremely attractive in this genre of movie and I believe that appeals highly to a male audience.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC CLASSIFICATION
I think that the socio-economic classification for the audience of our film would be C2DE because our main audience are teenagers, and most teenagers and students around that age are unemployed or only part time and are in this classification.
