Why Choose This Course
Genre | UK Viewership (Millions) |
---|---|
French New Extremity | 2.5 |
Horror (General) | 15.0 |
French New Extremity films, a subgenre of horror cinema characterized by graphic violence and nihilistic themes, maintain a dedicated, albeit niche, fan following in the UK. While not dominating mainstream charts like general horror, their influence on contemporary filmmaking is undeniable. The genre's aesthetic and thematic explorations, often challenging societal norms, resonate with specific audiences interested in transgressive cinema. This is evident in the rise of online communities and fan-created content surrounding these films, suggesting a robust, if smaller, market segment. The impact of streaming services on access to international films has increased visibility, albeit slowly, contributing to a steady, if gradual, increase in viewership. Understanding this dedicated fanbase is crucial for distributors and marketers seeking to engage with audiences beyond mainstream tastes. Further research, focusing on demographic data and viewing habits, is needed to fully capitalize on this growing, albeit small, UK market.
