-
- Genre Theory. Genre, a category of artistic
production characterized by similarities in
composition and style, is a term used to discuss
literature, music, art, and film. It is
particularly useful in critical applications
because it distinguishes a work within a context
of similar works. In film, we are familiar with
certain broad genre categories such as horror,
science-fiction, romance, or drama. - Understanding genre helps provide the viewer with
certain expectations about the film. For
instance, the film The Conjuring trailer (Version
2) is of the horror genre and thus can be
discussed in context with other horror films.
More specifically, it is of the sub-genre,
supernatural horror, so it can be discussed in
context with, say, The Exorcist trailer. Making
this distinction enables the audience to situate
their reaction within a particular framework.
