Questionnaire results

       Questionnaire analysis
A question for my questionnaire was asking the people how often they watch horror films. The options I gave them in the questionnaire were; once a week, more than once a week, once a month, more than once a month and never. The results are as followed:
-          For once a week: I had one result which said they watch them once a week, this was a total of 9.09%.
-          For more than once a week: I had one results which said they watch them more than once a week, this was a total of 9.09%.
-          Once a month: I had 3 results which said they watch them once a month, this was a total of 27.27%.
-          More than once a month: I had 3 results which said they watch them more than once a month, this was a total of 27.27%.
-          Never: I had 3 results which said they never watch them, this was a total of 27.27%.
The results are split mainly between, once a month, more than once a month and never for this question. Once a week and more than once a week only managed to get one result, which shows this isn’t very common for people according to this survey.

A question for my questionnaire was asking if people actually like horror films. The options I gave was yes or no. The results are as followed:
-          Yes: I had 7 responses for people saying yes to liking horror films which came to 63.64%.
-          No: I had 4 responses for people saying no to liking horror films which came to 36.36%.
The results show that more people on this questionnaire do like horror films than those who don’t like as much.

A question for my questionnaire was asking people what their favourite horror film is. The options I gave were; Nightmare on Elm Street, Insidious, Women in black, Saw and the option for them to state any other options. The results are as followed:
-          Nightmare on Elm Street: I had 1 response for this movie stating this is their favourite and this was a total of 9.09%.
-          Insidious: I had 4 responses for this movie stating this is their favourite and this came to a total of 36.36%.
-          Women in black: I had 1 response for this movie stating this is their favourite and this came to a total of 9.09%.
-          Saw: I had 1 response for this movie stating this is their favourite and this came to a total of 9.09%.
-          Other: I had 4 responses for this, saying that there were other films that were their favourite horror film, this came to a total of 36.36%. The options people gave were; The shining, The boy, Sinister and The cabin in the woods.
The results show that a large portion of people who answered this questionnaire are fans of insidious, but then again it shows the variety of people’s favourite horror films as of having 4 responses for the other category.

A question for my questionnaire was asking people where they most often watch horror films. The options I gave were; cinema, home and a friend’s house. Answers are as followed:
-          Cinema: I had 2 responses which was 18.18%
-          Home: I had 5 responses which was 45.45%
-          Friends house: I had 4 responses which was 36.36%
From these results we can see that at home and a friend’s house are the most popular places to watch horror movies. This may be to do with not having to pay a significant amount of money to watch them at the cinema, because cinemas now a days are very expensive places to go.

A question for my questionnaire was asking if people are influenced by marketing. The options were either yes or no. The results are:
-          Yes: I had 10 responses for this giving 90.91%
-          No: I had 1 response for this giving 9.09%
From these results you can see that the marketing of the film plays a big part in if people will want to go and watch it, this is something that I will take into consideration when making my film and making the marketing products.
