Horror Movie analysis : Zombieland.
Firstly, the opening 2 minutes includes the main feautures of romance, horror and especially... comedy! The intro has a very large compilation of zombies attacking humans, in slow motion. This has a big affect to the viewers because they see the comedic value in the movie, as well as the horror of a zombie apocalypse. There are several shots throughout the two minute intro,and in nature, for example a wedding scene at the beginning.
You are introduced to the movie with the idea that the zombie apocalypse was a complete surprise, as people are panicking and trying to run away.
Sound.
In the opening few minutes of this clip, the sound is very mysterious. it creates a hectic environment in which we are shown in the trailer, where many characters are killed by zombies.
Camera angles.
There are many great camera angles shown in the opening two minutes. but during the first few, the main shots are low angles and medium shots. the low angles show that the character is inferior but also shows in great detail the story. I think that the reason the director chose these shots is that they want to make the characters look like they are panicking and inferior as the zombie apocoalypse happens. however there are a few eye level shots, but the best one is when a group of zombies are chasing a man and his child, this shows the background as well as all the characters in the scene.
