What is your favourite horror movie?

• People were welcomed to write what they wanted in the answer section of this question so the answers are varied. This gives me an accurate opinionated answer rather than just having options people could choose from.

Conclusion.

• Overall I feel the answers from the questionnaire have helped me shape my original idea into a more specific story and have made me think more about options such as ghosts, social networking, ratings and the length of my trailer. But then again twice I received feedback which was 50-50, this is useful to some extent, but it makes things hard to say for definite.
