Lovefilm - most rented moviesWhen planning which sub-genre of horror we wanted to create, we thought it would useful to see what horror films are currently standing high in the charts. As well as buying films on DVD, many people have started to rent DVDs instead recently because it is cheaper and you can watch more. Therefore, we thought it would be a good idea to research which horror films are being rented as well as which horror films are being bought. One of the most popular online companies for renting films is LoveFilm, so we decided to check on their website which horror films are being rented the most and, more importantly, which sub-genre they were. Films such as 'Mama' 'One missed call' 'Evil dead' and 'Dark skies' were very high up on the chart. This shows that the sub genre of paranormal/supernatural is very popular. Some of our inspirations such as 'The woman in black' and 'the sixth sense' were very popular, with the sixth sense getting a 4 star rating from over 60,000 members
