Intro: introduce the slasher genre, and how it has to change to survive, eg
P1: audience generic expectations, what they generally expect from the movie or genre as a whole
P2: technology- the difference in the time period and the resources available to the production team
P3: changes in society – ideologies, values and representation/ eg, the era of the second wave of feminism changed everything. Eg ,from being subservient and controlled in Psycho to the protagonist role in Switchblade Romance. Phallic symbols are needed to ensure the woman has complete power.
P4: censorship on channels or different times when showing, censoring certain aspects of the movie.
P5: any other changes that have to occur to make the genre adapt
Conclusion: genres have to adapt because society and their expectations have change, therefore in order to make a profit, the institution has to appeal and try to attract an audience
