The Butcher Knife
The effect that a weapon like this, is that the stereotypical horror weapon. The most memorable that audiences remember of this weapon is the one from 'Physco'. This image also has connotations of horror as it being used to cut dead animals foreshadows what is going to happen next.
The Kitchen Knife
This is an effective item in horror as it is an everyday house hold item, so it can be retrieved by anyone, givin a sense of mystery and giving the audience no idea of who the villain could be.
OUR HORROR WEAPON
For our weapon we chose to have a plank of wood, the close up of the wood before it has been moved indicates to the audience its purpose in the film. The effect of having this as a weapon is again the fact that anyone can reach it, giving a snse of mystery to the audience.
