What is Amazon?
Amazon is an American electronic commerce and cloud computing company that sells a range of products from different companies worldwide. Amazon was established in 1994 in Washington US. It all began when Amazon started up as an online book store, which later developed into a company selling DVDs, Blue Rays, CDs and videos. This is relevant, as people still want to buy media in this format, and due to this it is important that we recognise which horror DVD's are best selling on the site, and why that is.

What is the best selling horror film on Amazon?
These are the best selling horror films on Amazon of 2016.
Most of these films have the sub-genre of supernatural, this allows us to infer that this sub-genre is a popular at this time, despite this it appears that the films under the supernatural bracket are listed towards the end of the best selling horrors, and as a result of this there seems to be a slight gap in the market for a new supernatural film.
Another sub-genre that appears to be popular at this time is slasher as Stephen Kings 'IT' has taken first place on the best sellers for Amazon,
Due to the rise in popularity in both genres, we have chosen to make a film which corresponds with what's popular, and whats selling now by blending both supernatural and slasher in order to increase our audience and profits.

The number one best selling Horror on Amazon is Stephen King's 'IT', which first came out on November 18th, 1990. This demonstrates that Amazon has a wide market in DVDs, as a result of 'IT' being an old film means that it only takes a good horror to come out in order to steal the position of number one, and views want to see something new.

The Conjuring is another film ranked within the top best sellers on Amazon, this film takes the style of a conentional horror - based in a house, anf holds the genre or supernatural/ paranormal. As it appears towards the end of the list we have taken this as an oppertunity to create a a film of the same genre which can out do The Conjuring on the listings.

A common reoccurrence throughout both these films is the use of children within the terror. The fact that children are used allows the audience to find a deeper connection to the characters within the film, as children are often the most vunrable. This is something we'd like to capture in our film when blending both supernatural and slasher.
