In many horror films out there they use female characters as victims this is because they are portrayed as weaker than males. When looking at social groups we can see that the ages of characters provide different representation. For example, teenagers are seen as trouble makers and are often associated with drink and drugs. Because of this we have chosen for our characters to be drinking and to be going out for a party as this fits conventions of social groups.
This picture is from the film 'Cabin In The Woods' In this picture you can also see a group of young adults having a party drinking alcohol. We have copied this representation of teenagers by using 2 females within the similar age groups and copying the stereotypes of this age by having them drink alcohol. We have used similar social representation
