Film Titles

I have researched recent horror film releases (2010) in order to find out if there are any trends which I may need to adhere to. Below are a list of ten horror film titles:

1. The Crazies
2. Frozen
3. A Nightmare On Elm Street
4. Womb Ghosts
5. Dahmer Vs. Gacy
6. Resident Evil: Afterlife
7. Sparrow
8. Hatchet II
9. I Spit On Your Grave
10. The Last Exorcism

As you can see, there does not appear to be any correlation between film names, probably because one of the main appeals for a film is the escapism (i.e. 'escaping' from the boring life; being transported into an exciting environment) factor, therefore if there were any parallels, the audience may be less likely to see it.

I have realised the audience do not want prior expectations when watching the film, instead, they generally wish to be shocked by unusual aspects of the film.
