(the man below is just from google images, he isn't really Nigel!)

 

Through being a writer Nigel has formed a love of stylish cinematography found in niche market films of fairly unknown directors/producers. He likes to take the occasional trip to Cinema city to watch Scandinavian thrillers for their fantastic cinematography qualities and enjoy a glass of red wine. He hates main stream films with predictable story lines and over rated actors and directors. He feels that they use special effects and action packed explosions and violence etc to compensate for the unintelligent story lines and poor script writing. He much prefers films  where he will be required to use his brain, complete with a stylish use of mise en scene and varied camera angles/ shot types. He appreciates when the use of lighting creates suspense and various emotions. He is of a high social class and is known to look down his nose at people, he drives a posh car and uses long words in unnecessary social situations...

The diagram shows that Our Thriller is generally aimed at those in the 40+ age category, fairly gender equal but steering slighting closer to a male audience. Very niche market. 

Research into user ratings.

The Black Dahlia  is of a similar style to our film Corruption. The user rating of this film on imdb shows that its audience is fairly gender equal. Under the assumption that our film would have similar types of viewers, it suggests that our film would have a fairly gender neutral audience.
