influences

"After an experimental bio-nerve gas is accidentally released at a remote U.S. military base in Texas, those exposed to the gas turn into flesh-eating, mutating zombies out to kill. An assortment of various people who include stripper Cherry, her shady mechanic ex-boyfriend ray, a strong-willed doctor, the local sheriff, and an assortment of various people must join forces to survive the night as the so-called "sickos" threaten to take over the whole town and the world"

when i first saw this film i didn't relay like it but then when i watched it a second time i realizerd how food it was and how its more of a tribute to all the other horror films, i think is a good thing because this then enable the director to use some of the best and most influential parts of a film to the put together as a complation to make an ultimate film of that geanra

The Cenobites are extradimensional beings who appear in the works of Clive Barker, including the novella The Hellbound Heart and the eight Hellraiser films. They are also mentioned, in passing, in the novel Weaveworld. They are mentioned by Immacolata who calls them “The Surgeons from Beyond.”

this is one of the film that have come ot my attention and also taking infulenec from it as well
also another film is hellraiser,i love this film because of the pure face that i was a realy good film for it time and also that it a load about satan and cenobiites.
the consept of the (The term cenobite is an archaic word meaning simply "a member of a communal religious order". Indeed, the original novel mentions the Cenobites as "Theologians of the Order of the Gash"; they are also referred to as Hierophants. They can reach Earth's reality only through a rupture in time and space (referred to as a "Schism") which is opened and closed using certain unearthly artifacts. The most common form for these artifacts is an innocuous-looking Chinese-style puzzle box called the Lament Configuration.)
cenobite i think is awsum abd the way they look as well how they are all disfugred due to the fact that they have bin tourcherd throught the Lemarchand Box, a wood and brass puzzle box, which if solved opens a gateway between our world and Hell, highly sought after by the greatest of hedonists for its promise of unparalleled pleasures. The Cenobites were then directly responsible for the pleasure/pain torture of said individual. other cenobite have more brutal disfigureation.

devil may cry, even though its a game it have inspired me due to the face again to do with the devil. in the fourth game they have introudece a new charcater Nero comes into possession of Yamato, Vergil's sword, which allows him a Devil Trigger which summons a Devil avatar to fight with him. i like this more as the story side of it rather than the game concept of it, dont get me wrong them game is good but im not look at the game side in this part.

the caracter in my short film know as the "reeper" at the moment is lose based on lether face and the grim reeper aka death the cloke he weres is based upon death cloak that he were but the actual personality of this character is losely based on lether face, toward the more twisted side and burtality of him, even tho letherface si based on ed gain a 1940 sirial killer who also robber grace and were the skin of his viktem like letherface does but In the original film, Leatherface wore three different masks; the "Killing Mask", "Grandmother Mask" and "Pretty Woman Mask." Gunnar Hansen commented, "the reason he wore a mask, according to Tobe and Kim, was that the mask really determined his personality. Who he wanted to be that day determined what mask he put on.

What film inspired me to make this film were evil dead:2 even though this is a realy old horror I think it set a mile stone for all other horror films , I just love he fact there are no special effect every thing is either a prop or made in small scale ,this take a lot of effort and I think that just add to the atmosphere of the film, it one of those films that I can never get board of.
There are quite a few gory parts in it and seem that at the time the there weren’t many special effect ever thing was done by have as so to speak so I wanted to have that in my film but then again I did want to have some sort of special effect in it, the make u from evil dead2 was really inspiriting to me if you take the part were Bruce turns in to that demonic version of him self it all make up and a bit of latex this is what I want to achieve in my film.
Another film that inspired me was Alfred Hitchcock psycho as this film I THE millstone for all other horror films as it has the classic murder in the shower with the violins and its about a man who think mother still alive and dresses up like and kills guest who stay at his hotel, that fact that you don’t know realy much or even any thing about this “psycho” is quite the enigma and I liked that but you do get a rough idea of what has happened to him towards the end I want to again incorporate this into my film, in away you don’t know relay what’s happened but some how you can tell
And thre3rd film that inspired me was planet terror now this is a dedication to all other horror films as it had similar part form other films like for example when the stripper lose her leg and then get it replaced with a machine gun-evil dead Bruce get a chainsaw on his hand when he cut of his own, also this film is ridicules gore just for the sake of it head exploding every were guts falling out from every were, it just fantastic but some time you think to your self this is a bit of a spoof, but none the less good, it more of an action horror thriller but still has load of aspect of horror. Usually in horror films these always people that survived like in planet terror and all the other film I have described, but in the film I’m making I want no one to survive, as I think his make it a good horror films personally I don’t like when people survive but then again you can argue that how will the story get passed and so on and on. So these are my inspection for the film I have made all classice horror films with a little bit of action mixed in with them.
