This research helped me to establish what type of actors, conventions and styles would work for this type of story, what works, what has always been successful, what hasn't and how to make it different and unique to our own, To improve this I would add more ideas and maybe do a questionnaire asking people what they would prefer in their ideal horror movie with a comedy catch, The outcome from this research would be to ensure we focus on particular stories and themes, keeping it simple and linked closely together.
