Different horror characters analysis




From looking at this the narrative theory Propp: character functions suggests that:
  • The hero that seeks something
  • The villain opposes or blocks the hero's quest
  • Donor provides the object or info that helps the hero
  • Dispatcher sends the hero on his/hers quest via a message
  • False hero, disrupts the hero success
  • The helper who aids the hero
  • Princess acts as a reward
  • Princesses father rewards the hero
  • Discovers the struggle scene and recognition scene = Hero
  • Struggle between hero and villain is unmasked
From the above of the main antagonist character their may not have all of the above criteria shown, this is because in a trailer giving too much away will make the audience not want to go and watch the film. However I will keep the above theory in mind to help me create a narrative for my Horror/Thriller trailer.
