Genre research task

Genre research task

The genre i have chosen is action. The generic elements of action is that there definitely has to be fights, explosions and adventures. It has to have a theme of danger as that influences the action. There has to be nerving sounds and dangerous atmosphere. This genre can be merged easily with some other genres. For example; action-horror, action-adventure, action-comedy,etc... The history of action films is good as its always been popular. Movies such as Indiana Jones (1981) was first made and was ver popular as a action-adventure film. There has been 4 movies made of Indiana jones and there is rumour of another one coming out in 2021. This is only one example of the history of action genre and there is many more dating as far as the 1950s when film making were on the uprise to popularity. Over the years film makers tried to be creative and make the generic conventions change little to submerge the genre with new genres they ant usually paired with. For Example, Cowboys vs Aliens was made to try and start something new and create a new style of film. It didn't work out very well as it didn't get very popular and wasn't as great as it was expected to be. People do this to test it and make sure its good or bad to help the film world expand.

Its teeth are sharp like knifes like it will slowly and painfully kill the girl.

The myth os the silence is how rare and hardly seen it is and u wouldn't see it below the radar in a city or town only really in rich areas.
