The codes and conventions for VHS are taken from one particular section of the film, I was unable to find a suitable YouTube video showing this section of the film. The section is towards the end of the film and follows the men at the begging of the film who break into a house looking for a video tape, the house is dark and a majority of the men have vanished by this part of the film and it focus' on a few of the men as they watch one of the video tapes and walk around the previously mentioned house. The reason we have chosen to look at VHS in detail is due to the fact that it uses handheld camera footage for the majority of the film, this is something that we ourselves would like to implement into our own film with the use of the killer using a handheld camera to see his perspective of the events that unfold. It was imperative to look a a film such as VHS to see how handheld cameras are implemented in feature horror films, and to see how we could emulate these conventions.
