Generic horror movie music tends to be created using really deep notes or extremely high notes to create suspense. The music usually starts off slow and builds up pace as the pace of the film is increased to show greater danger. Many of these pieces of music also have an echo to them to again create tension and make things scarier for the viewers. I personally like the music used in sinister as it really fits around the events of the film perfectly and uses unexpected elements to spook the audience.
By listening to what feedback we received from our video questionnaire, I decided to look into the use of classical music as a way of creating horror and suspense. As stated by many people we questioned, i agree with the fact that horror adds a different dimension to the film, I believe because of the intense use of different instruments, it adds extra layers to the music and coupled with a horror
film allows the desired effect to be achieved.
