Saw Review

Here shown is two reviews of Saw which is my main Focus film. I have got these reviews to show the opinion in which other people have on the film and the rating in which they would give it. The use of reviews will show how opinions of the focus films have changed through the years and the difference in the reviews will show some change. For example how Saw which shows all the gore in which they believe horror movies should have compared to the mental focus in which my two other focus films use.

This link shows an unhappy view of Saw compared to the reviews in which i have found for Nosferatu which are all positive views. This could show a lose in respect for the horror genre and how the horror genre has declined through the years.

I will also write my own review on Saw and get others to write a brief review showing what they believe.

Todays lesson 09/12/10

Through this lesson i gathered more Internet information which are useful towards my project and i have found reviews during that provide information about Nosferatu and their views throughout, i have searched greatly the through the Internet and am going to continue in more Internet research to gather more sufficient information about all three of my films.

Also i am going to personally review the films and get others to make reviews and write up reviews on the films. Also i wish to take another trip to the BFI library to gather more information on my study. And furthermore study the films in greater detail over the next cumming days. I will also do more contextual analysis of all of my films to gather information on what was going on through the times in which the films were made to see how they may have affected the making of the films.
