Paranormal Activity
On the popular website Amazon the Bestsellers in Ghosts and Hauntings (paranormal) shows that even though Paranormal Activity 3 (2011) got a rating of 59/100 on Metacritic and Paranormal Activity 2 (2010) with a rating of 53/100 they are still 2nd and 4th Bestsellers on amazon. This allows us to create a better Paranormal film that will hopefully become a bestseller and gain lots of money. Both films have an age rating of 15, which allows a wider audience range. Which makes the film more profitable.
Paranormal Activity 4
On Amazon it shows that Paranormal Activity 4 (2013) is 2nd Bestseller on Amazon for buying a film. This shows that the Paranormal Sub-Genre of Horror is extremely popular. This is why we have chosen Paranormal as our sub-genre for our horror movie. This allows us to create a better film that will hopefully become profitable. Paranormal Activity 4 has a rating of 15, which allows a wider audience range.
Mama
On Amazon it shows that the fim Mama (2013) ranked fifth in the list of best selling horror films, this even though it is not first is still seen as a highly ranked dvd to buy. This is effective as it allows us to come to the conclusion that paranormal films are seen as relatively successfully movies which contributes to the initial idea of following a paranormal plot line.
