From the first viewing of the film, do you have any ideas on what genre it is?
They all agreed on what we hoped. They said that it was a teen movie, they also said it was a horror movie, but something we never thought of was that they said it was an action movie as well. I can now see what they mean by it because of the type of music played has a bit of an action feel to it as it works so well when it is played at the part when the bathrom gets trashed.
