ThemesRevenge: Jamie wants revenge on the people at her school who never bothered to get to know her or never wanted to be her friend. She especially wants to get revenge on the most popular girl in her school. This is because the popular girl was everything that Jamie wanted to be but no one ever accepted her as anything less than a ‘freak’. So when Louise invited Jamie to her party she jumped at the chance of going. However Louise’s true intentions weren’t to be nice and become friends with Louise. Louise wanted to embarrass Jamie in front of the whole year, she did this by getting her friends to throw paint over Jamie when Jamie walked into the party.

InspirationThe main inspiration is American Horror Story, created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk. The contextual background of their series have been taken into consideration because the are relatable all over the world. Unsealed was inspired by the storylines in American Horror Story, they are psychologically challenging and the majority of them have very gruesome endings. The way suspense is delivered through each episode makes the audience want to go and watch the next episode and follow onto the next series. Since the show is a great success I will take a lot of inspirations from it and hopefully create a successful horror movie that will not only fulfil the codes and conventions but it will be enjoyed by the target audience.

accepted into society.2. Disruption of Equilibrium – Jamie has enough of the way she has been treated and makes her way home,

however on the way the is drugged by the voodoo man. However because Jamie is not a virgin the normal ritual can’t proceed.

3. Recognition of Disruption – Jamie’s trapped spirit invades her best friend Shantelle’s dream and tells her everything that has happened.
