opening paragraph- thesis statement

Style differences between a thriller/horror film and a horror film
paranormal activity
scream 4

the two films i am looking at have multiple stylistic similarities and differences, which help to portray the film genre. The first film i will be looking at is paranormal activity a horror released in 2009 an independent film from blumhouse productions. Paranormal activity follows the events of an unseen presences in katie and micah house. the second film i will be looking at is scream 4 a thriller/horror film released in 2011 by outerbanks entertainment, Hollywood. Scream 4 follows the killer ghostface murders and a group of friends who try to out smart and defend themselves against him. both films re aimed at the same audience age ranging from late teens to early 20's. The typical horror genre includes a supernatural beings such as ghosts and demons as well as moments to scare the viewer. The subgenre of thriller/horror films creates suspense an tension for the audience.  The most identifiable stylistic difference is the camera styles, followed by the editing of the two films.
