Costumes



This is a collage of typical costumes of horror characters. I had done this in order to compare different conventions of characters and how they are portrayed. We can see in many of them that they have cuts and bruises getting across the horror side of their character. Others use masks like Jason from Friday the 13th. We can also see from looking at the images that typical horror characters use different conventions in their look in order to create fear.

Costumes for a victim in a horror movie are completely different in the aspect of the colours and styles of their clothes. For instance colours such as pale yellows and pink highlight the victim in the films, which are also mainly women.
