careful use of mise-en-scene



When filming it occurred to use that as our theme for the movie was Christmas which is a religious event that it would be a good idea to incorporate some candles into various scenes as a sign of hope for the characters. On the other hand they also represent a symbol of witch craft so it seems as if the characters can never escape from the evil.

We also had a variety of Christmas decorations to emphasis the fact that it is Christmas time. There are lights around Tameras’ neck as if someone could kill her with it foreshadowing her future in the film.

Using religious items is a convention used in most horror films as a lot of the time it produces some sort of solution to the problem and can help save the day.
