Internet Research

My SSR is taking its time to get started but im getting there. I have found some good websites for my internet research such as a review on 1408 which coincidently mentions one of my other related films The Shining. This review talks about how haunted hotels and roadside inns on deserted roads are classic locations for this sub genre which is realy useful for my research. I plan to continue my internet research and soon move on to books and magazines. I also need to finalise exactly what my focus is on and choose my focus question.

SSR - Beggining

In my first 2 hours of starting my small scale research project i have chosen my focus film which is 1408 (Director - Mikael Håfström, Released 31st of August 2007, Dimension Films). My main study is going to be on haunted buildings as a sub genre of horror. I have also chosen my 2 related films which are The Amityville Horror (Director - Andrew Douglas, 15th April 2005, Dimension Films) and The Shining (Director - Stanley Kubrick, 23rd May 1980, Warner Bros. Pictures). I have started watchng the films again to familiarize my self with them.
