- 16. Target Audience The target audience for my film will be aimed at 18-25 year olds as this is social economic grouping E as they have disposable incomes to spend on themselves. The Primary audience of this film will be 18-25 year old males because women are not usually attracted to dark comedy horror films as much as men. Also general fans of the actors in the film and are general fans of there work. People who are generally fans of horror films also would be attracted to the film. Secondary audience will be women. Women are not the prime target of the film but can still be attracted to the film if they like similar films to this one like Shaun Of The Dead.
