JN:Conventions of horror: Amityville Horror (Douglas 2005)

.The haunting soundtrack as well as the use of amplified diagetic sounds ables the audience to understand the fear felt by the girl ,furthermore the Heartbeat sound and the emphasis on creaky doors adds to the effect.
.the location is a rural and isolated area.
.The limited dialogue makes the audience focus more on the non-verbal language.
.Muted colours are caused by a sepia filter ,which gives a more evil and haunted feel to the intro.This allows the apparent genre to be shown.
