Evaluation Question 4 - Target Audience

Who would be the audience for your media product?

After reading the rating specifications on the BBFC website, we decided the most appropriate rating would be 18. Although there is no violence, drug taking or sexual behaviour in the opening, there would be violence further on in the film and due to the fact that the group are staying in an un-used house, there would also possibly be drug parafanalia to hint that that's why they entered the house in the first place. Due to the fact that our film would be an 18, the target audience would be mainly males of 18-26. Race is not considered in the target audience as we do not think it would appeal to one race more than another.

The film would obivously appeal to people interested in the slasher genre, but also especially people that have previously enjoyed watching Friday the 13th (2008) & Halloween (1978), as these are two films that i gained inspiration for the idea of Acts of Repulsion.
