Hush

Hush is and independent Horror film made in Britain, the key way to tell that Hush is an independent film is to look at the way it is Funded. Hush was funded  with the help of Film 4, UK film council, EM Media, warp X,warp films, screen Yorkshire, Fear factory, Pathe and Shona Productions. also an independent film must be at least 50% funded by the owner.

A good way to make sure that your independent film is seen is to  put in a well known actor, in the case of hush the film starred William Ash who had already been in an array  of TV shows, TV films and Films before Hush.

Hush is a horror film this is made very clear to anyone who has watched the film, the style of the film fits perfectly into the style and conventions of a horror film, for example through out the whole film the lighting is consistently dark this sets the mood of a horror and also makes the audience feel that there could be something around every corner. unlike a lot of horror films Hush is all based in a very real world with real life events this makes the film all the more scary, when you compare Hush to a film like resident evil you can really see how the real life setting is just as scary as the post apocalyptic setting in resident evil.The difference in setting between Hush and Resident Evil means that the films have to use different styles to scare people, in Resident Evil they can use gore and violence to scare people. on the other hand Hush used relatable  emotions such as loss and never seeing someone again and the fear of never seeing the face of your horrors.
