Box office Guru and Box office Mojo are websites that tracks box office revenue. They contain different films and shows what the gross profit was of it. They also track what the highest box office revenue for each genre and record which film it was. This means we will be able to use these websites to find out what the highest grossing horror films and types of horror films are to be able to determine what type of horror film to make.
in the chart above it shows that the highest grossing horror film ever is Sixth Sense. This film is a supernatural horror film and this was closely followed by Jaws which is a terror in the water horror and this is then closely followed by Ghostbusters which is a horror comedy. These statistics suggest that in order for our film to make good revenue then it should be something revolving around ghosts or supernatural activity.
