Name Of Film: 30 Days Of Night
Genre Of Trailer: Action Horror
Year Released: 2007
Your Mark After Viewing: 8/10
In my opinion this trailer portrayed the film to be an
excellent horror film. It was a highlights trailer and focused mainly on the
more frightening, fast pieces of the movie, which s good because it keeps the
trailer fast paced and exciting. The trailer just summarised several different
sequences from the film, we get introduced to the characters and we find out a
little bit about the narrative of the film. We see small short glimpses of the ‘vampires’
and a few small action scenes. The trailer shows great suspense and has
brilliant jumpy bits, this trailer is certainly rift with the ‘scare factor’
that makes a great horror film. There was also restricted narration as this was
a green band trailer, one of the criticisms was that there wasn’t any body
horror in the trailer but because of the well-executed restricted narration it
didn’t need to be included. One criticism I have was the piece of music played
towards the end of trailer didn’t fit, it wasn’t eerie enough and killed the
suspense at the start of the trailer.
All in all the trailer marked very well in class, this was
because the trailer started with a jump, it had restricted narration so there
was no need for gore, and it ended with a jump.
