Deciding the name for my film
Below is a list of possible names for my thriller movie, with reasons why I think they maybe suitable.
I have one or two favourites but as part of my primary research i'm going to discuss the outline of my story with a focus group before asking them to rate each title out of 10. This will help me pick the most appropriate title for my film.
REVENGE: Short and punchy. Thrillers often have one word titles. The title relates to the storyline which features a man taking revenge for the death of his son.
A FATHER'S VENGEANCE: Again this title emphasises the storyline of the film, focusing on revenge. It also focuses attention on the father as the central character.
DEAD MAN WALKING: This is a mysterious title typical of thrillers and implies both that the film will contain violence and that a character is being hunted.
OUTSIDE THE LAW: Thriller movies often deal with characters who have to break the law to get justice. This hints that the boy's father will take revenge as the authorities are failing to do their jobs.
VIGILANTE: Like the previous title this implies a character taking the law into his own hands. It is also short and to the point (one word, typical of thrillers).
THE SALT PATH: Thrillers often have titles that are mysterious and their meanings are obscure. This title creates a sense of mystery and creates a sense that a character will chose a different, difficult path.
DEEP IN THE SHADOWS: This title hints at the darkness in the film's tone and implies that the father must work alone to get justice.
PUNISHMENT: This implies that the driving force behind the narrative is to make the killer pay for what he has done. Like many thriller titles it contains just one word.
RETRIBUTION: This title hints at the main theme of revenge. Again it is a one word title, typical of thrillers.
SOLITARY: This title suggests that the father must work alone to avenge the death of his son as the authorities are unable to find the killer.
