Slasher Genre Music.


This is the type of music I will be using for the murder sequence in my film. It is music from the famous slasher film Psycho and as such is recognised as it has been used in many different things, including parodies of the famous shower scene in from Psycho, therefore it is associated with murders and the slasher genre, as such it is perfect for my film. I will be using the same or similar music for my film to create a feeling of tension in the run up to the murder scene in my film. The harsh violin sounds in the music are similar to exaggerated slashing sounds of a knife, which will be useful for my film as I am using a knife as the weapon for my murderer. This music will also be useful as the violin slashing sounds will be there in place of the viewer actually seeing the stabbing, which leaves the murder to the spectator's imagination.
