Is the “Hills Have Eyes” (2006) a typical horror film?
According to Daniel Chandler the word typical represents the “repertoire of elements” in a certain genre. The horror genre has many conventions that stand out that have been recognized as key aspects of the horror genre, things such as “the last girl” and “Evil Entity”. The hills have eyes shows some of the conventions of a typical horror film but it has also borrowed many ideas from other genres of film, so can it still be classed as a horror? or is it a hybrid genre? I will be looking at the representation of women and the changes in society and how they have impacted the horror genre.
