Instead of doing a music video analysis I chose to do a movie trailer analysis. This movie was directed by H.G Lewis and is called “Blood Feast”. Blood Feast is an old gore movie that presents reality as very dark and satanic. It is presented this way because at this point in time this genre was very new and this would be seen as appealing to viewers. Stereotypes and symbols this video uses is blood (obviously) as a symbol for evil, and death, as well as the stereotype that women are weaker than males. Creed and values expressed in this video are that it is ok to kill people...it definitely isn’t. This video would appeal to teenagers because there is blood, and a lot of it at that. Teenagers enjoy seeing people hurt so this would make Blood Feast very appealing. Overall it is not the best movie trailer ever made but it is one of my favourites and a classic in the gore genre.
