The costumes used in the movie are: The Nursing clothing the protagonist and side characters wear, the robe the main antagonist wears, and the casual everyday clothing everybody else wears. One common lighting is the dim lighting used in the "scary" scenes. Another lighting used is the bright lighting used in the beginning of the movie. The protagonist of the movie is naive as she is told the app tells one when they will die and she chooses to download it anyway. The makeup for most characters is natural makeup as they look like normal, everyday people. The angel of death has yellow eyes and its face is covered. The setting is: The hospital, the Tech store, and Quinn's mom's house.
Common sound in the movie include: The diegetic sound when the characters are running, non-diegetic sound with the noises the monster makes, and dialogue when the characters are talking. Other common sounds are: the sound bridge when changing scenes, and a scary score.
Common editing in the movie include: Cross cutting between places, cutaway from the horror to another scene, insert into the computer, and a shot-reverse-shot between characters, for example, Quinn and Matt.
Generally, the common elements of horror are the fear of death, the dark, and fear of the unusual. My group and I enjoyed this horror film because it exhibited all requirements to become an excellent horror film; as it continued to keep us guessing.
However, the elements of the genre that do not appeal to us were the constant jump scares that eventually became repetitive and predicable.
