Our film certificate

Our film certificate

Our film will be rated 15. This is because it will appeal to a wide audience who can easily relate to our characters because they are of a similar age 15-25. as we felt like other young teens/adults will relate to our film as its about a teen tragedy as the girl is taken. If our film was an 18 certificate a large proportion of teenagers would not be able to watch the film. Also as our characters are teenagers it is important that they can watch the film as they will relate to the characters. Also., Laura Mulvey’s Male/Female Gaze theory can be applied to our film if it is 15 certificate as the teenagers/young adults may follow and be intrigued by the characters in the narrative. In our target audience research we found out that the largest proportion of people watching horror films is teenagres and young adults therefore we need to make sure that our film certificate is appropriate for our target audience.
