Character list

  • Freddie – Played by Kyle McCabe
  • Jase – Played by Charlie Wood
  • Jessica – Played by Jade Crome
  • Sydney – Played by Holly Gowler
  • Four extras – Played by Lawrence Calver, Kyle McCabe, Tom Middleton and Ben Wesley
  • Crazy Scientist – Played by Ben Wesley
  • Laura – Played by Jade Harrington
The reason for having Freddie and Jason was as a homage to Freddie Kruegar and Jason from the film Freddie Vs Jason. We used Sydney because she was the final girl in scream.
We chose the name Mr Karloff as it was the name of the famous actor Boris Karloff, who played the first Frankenstein monster. Frankenstein was made in 1931 by James Whale.

We chose  those names as we feel that the audience can identify with the intertextuality references. we also decided upon  these names as they are possibly the most famous  name within the horror genre.

  1. Good info - make sure you add in WHY the characters have these names, why they're being played by these people and what the audience will gain from referencing other horros in character names.
