TAGLINES RESEARCH

When researching thriller and horror film tag-lines I have decided to analyse 20 tag-lines, finding elements in which I like from each in order to create several, fitting tag-lines of my own for our trailers.

"Fifty million people watching but no one saw a thing"
- intriguing as to who & what is being referred to

"A romantic comedy with zombies"
- upfront and unusual 

"Theres more than one way to lose your life to a killer"
- very clear of genre, intriguing statement

"Everyone wants to be found"
- engages the audience, short and bold

"Be afraid, be very afraid"
- the audience will havee the feeling they're being spoken to 

"You have the right to remain silent, forever"
- a common statement with a twist, relating to the police revealing genre

"The bitch is back"
- straight forward & upfront

"The true story of a real fake"
- an oxymoron statment 

"Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope you can set it free"
- an unliteral statement, engaging viewer

"Who will survive and what will be left of them"
- a cliff hanging, intriguing statement

"You'll all be dammed" 
- sounding like its directed straight to audience

"You don't want to be on his list"
- a tagline directed at the audience

"The man of your dreams is back"
- the viewer is unsure whether fate is either good or bad

"In space no-one can hear you scream"
- isolating statement, unclear as to films setting

"Ding Dong. Your dead."
- directed to viewer, unexpected, clear genre representation
