Mood Board and early story ideas

This is the moodboard that I design for my group in phototshop to represent the feelings, ideas and moods that we want our film to include. We want our film to be very heavily linked, and take conventions from, the classic 1970's and 80's cult horror movies such as the exorcist, hellraiser, halloween and all the others show on the mood board. We have also decided that the horror of our film will come from the idea of dreams and real life overlapping, and nightmares become real. I believe that this is a good idea for a horror film, as everyone has dreams and nightmares, so eveyone would be able to realate to the events which are happening. The cast that the story will revolve around will almost entirely be teenagers, as they will be the easiest to cast. As well as this our early ideas for a target audience is teenagers, so again this will make them be able to relate to the events even more. At this time we don't really have a idea for a storyline beyond the idea of a group of teenagers having their worst nightmares come alive and kill them. However, this is not much of a problem, as with many horror trailers the storyline of the film is not really revealed beyond the idea of the horror being betrayed.
