Mise-en-scene blog task

In this still image mise en scene is used to show the audience that the character is afraid of something through the use of facial expressions and make up. The room is dimly lit which connotes to something ominous being present or coming up, which is also an enigma code as we don’t know what she’s afraid of. This image uses lighting and a zoomed in shot through what seems to be a door/closet which makes it seem as if it’s taken from the pov of someone or something that’s looking at her, possibly the thing she’s afraid of.        The first movie clip is from the movie ‘Halloween’ which is a horror movie. The second movie clip is from the movie “scary movie” which is a comedy/horror parody.  In the movie halloween the mise en scene is used to create a dark and scary scene however in the movie scary movie, it’s used to make the movie more laughable than scary.  In halloween, the scene is dark the entire time and this lack of lighting creates more fear and tension as the character seem

A movie about a man who has to fight against some sort of robot as in the corner we can see a tag line that says "man has made his match...now its his problem" which could be referring to humans making robots which are now turning against them. What genre(s) do you think the film belongs to? I believe it's a hybrid genre between action and sci-fi due to the stars in the background, which could indicate a space theme, and the gun in his hand alludes to action as he seems to be looking at something ready to fight which is also action code as we don't know what he's looking at   Who do you think is the target audience? I believe the target audience is younger adults and possibly teenagers because it seems to be an action-packed movie from the gun in the poster, which is usually targeted at a younger audience.
