Audience Research

The audience of horror films tend to be adults, mainly due to the fact that the BBFC usually rates horror films above the rating of 15. This is due to the severe graphic content that is displayed throughout a horror film, including gore, extreme violence and death. These type of themes are deemed inappropriate for younger teenagers or children, however must teenagers from the ages of 13-18 will have seen the most gory productions in todays modern film industry, and even consider horror being their favourite genre of film.
