In "Hellbend" the homosexuals are portrayed as helpless in the opening scene of the film this is an important aspect of the queer theory.







the homosexual at the start of the film is important to his character as they show his innocence and as the scene moves on we find out  that they are a gift to his mother.His concern for his mother helps to aid the audience with feeling sad for him when he dies. are affections towards the character  help the audience to dislike the killer right from the start of the film.

As the film progress  we are introduced to a Eddie a homosexual police officer, as you would aspect he is your stereotypical gay; camp, well groomed and within his police duties he pays special attention to men of the city. 
      
Later on in the film Eddie and a group of friends are at the West Hollywood Halloween festival, on the way to the festival they are picked out by a psycho killer praying on homosexuals, this is important as the homosexual being the target of a crime of the crime is a convention of the queer theory.

Horror deconstruction 2 –Feminism film theory

Woman is completely defenseless to child; she has a look of complete fear and helplessness.

The child is closer to the screen than the mother to show that she has far less power than him.

The woman in this film is portrayed in the style of a feminism theory.

Playing to the stereotype of the woman being weak and defenseless  this is an important aspect of the genre because the woman in a horror is the lady that will be chased and killed; also she provides the crying and screaming to the horror which is a key convention of horror

Horror Deconstruction- The Silence of the Lambs

 

In this scene the lighting is used to make a dark feel to the room and the way the light streaks past the body paints a sinister angelic mood to the location.  
  

The close up on the face of the policeman shows this fear, as an audience this makes us feel uneasy. The music adds to the sense of unease, this sense of unease is created by the deep bass and the contrast of the high pitched harp strings.  The shadow on the man’s face sets the dark feel to the room.

 

In the clip you can clearly tell that the person displayed on screen is a murderer and probably a cannibal. We can tell these things by the blood on his face and chest and also by the half smile on his face displaying a sense of achievement towards his kill. The camera then pans out to show the full extent of carnage in the room. The music add a layer of sinister contrast to the visual display by presenting us with The Goldberg Variations, a piece of classical music that would normal be used to set a calm mood.
