Film Analysis - Woman In Black

Opening

At the beginning we can see three girls sitting down playing with dolls, old fashioned dolls are seen as creepy and are likely to be possessed, this can also be seen in Chucky. Chucky isn't a stereotypical old fashioned doll but he is still creepy and possessed, Annabelle is also an old and possessed doll. These dolls seem easy to posses so it is likely that these dolls will cause these three young girls to do something bad which may lead to death.

Setting

The setting is a creepy old looking house, these are also typical cliches of a horror movie. It has old windows and plain walls. There is also old china mugs and saucers.

Camera

the camera shows them all turning around and looking up. this is as if there was a massive creature that is persuading them to do something... this thing is them jumping out the window.
