The document discusses the target audience for a film called "Thanatos". It aims the film primarily at 15-year olds and older due to graphic violence and language. However, one particularly dark scene would not be appropriate even for 15-year-olds. As a result, the film rating would need to be changed to 18+. A typical target audience member is also described as a white, middle-class male college student who enjoys thriller films and socializing with friends through activities like skating and camping. Additionally, "moshers" are identified as a niche target audience since they enjoy non-mainstream media.

Events allow the audience to second guess what will happen but explanations are never complete to maintain mystery and build suspense. Typical roles include a helpless female in need of rescue and a male hero battling the situated evil through revenge or anger.
