Sub-genres are simply genres within genres, such as, romantic comedy. In the horror genre there are sub genres, such as, Splatter films which contain exssesive amounts of blood and gore (such as Saw). The antagonist almost always uses a knife to kill his victims with (such as Scream). Therefore these films must use conventions of both genres. The sub-genre I have chosen to shoot is a slasher as they are exciting to watch, which will gurreentee action in the opening scene.
A hybrid is refered to as two films merged together. This can be explained by the British film, Shaun of the Dead (2004), the writer, Simon Pegg claimed it to be a rom-zom-com he explains that the film has elements of each category (romance, comedy and zombie). This particular hybrid is about a man that wants to win his ex-girlfriend back, while trying to combat the dead which are coming back to eat the living.
