Comments on:
  •  what BBFC we would rate our movie opening (15)
  • Reference to Chuckie (the doll)
  • Slasher movies are based on teens which is one of the reasons why we chose 15 certificate

  1. good specific detail on BBFC
    look ahead to Evaluation and consider adding further detail here - look at blog posts on this
    for example, to discuss audience you can investigate box office success of slasher films to show there is a viable audience (including UK examples)
    if 15-24 is your PRIMARY target audience (+rem too that slashers show adults/authority figures as weak), then there's also a younger and older SECONDARY aud (those who ignore bbfc ratings, helped by digitisation, and existing genre fans of 25-34+)
    male gaze (and female gaze?) also a factor as well as the gore you mention; intertextuality with childs play (shortly to get a reboot so your film could benefit from hype over it) also a potential plus in attracting an audience
