Bedtime is a horror movie with slasher elements and stars me and Murphy Rodgers. Now, before I go into the questions I need to answer, I'd like to go over a brief synopsis of the film itself. In Bedtime, a college girl who assumes she is being haunted sets up a camera in order to catch the supposed ghost. However, she gets more than she bargained for when a man appears from under her bed, and smothers her with a pillow, which is all caught on camera.
Now I would like to go over the conventions that my product uses. As a horror film, it challenges and breaks several conventions. For example, it sticks with the "college girl is murdered in the safety of her own home" that many other horror films follow. However, I like to think that I put a unique spin on that formula, by splicing it with the Paranormal Activity style of found footage. That's because the girl in this movie is genre-savvy: however, it's for the wrong genre. She thinks she's catching a ghost, when, in reality, she's being stalked by something much more real and much more deadly. This brings us to the actual social group that I am semi-satirizing. That is, those who believe whole-heartedly in ghosts. That's because I myself am a big proponent of Occam's Razor, or that the simplest explanation is the most likely one. However, the girl in my video does not, and thinks that all of her trouble, or at least, the scary ones, can be attributed to ghosts, only for her to find out they are much more real.
