How does your media product represent particular social groups?
Nightmare On Elm Street
Nightmare On Elm Street contains a group of characters who are friends, however the main character of the group is Nancy Thompson.
This character experiences nightmares and is affected in her real life by them. This is very similar to our main character in "Dark Nightmare" called Fai as she has nightmares and wakes up with real injuries. However, unlike Fai, her friends also experience the same nightmares and consequences.
Nancy Thompson is an overall normal 16 year old girl. This is unlike Fai as she is 8 year older and therefore is a more mature person. Nancy is also a relatively smart person as she tries to fix the situation she is in during the film in different attempts. This is unlike our main character as she is 8 year older and therefore is a more mature and logical person.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre contains a group of characters. In this group is included Sally Hardesty, an ordinary young woman from a rural background. This is similar to our main character in our film as she is also an ordinary woman.
Sally is set apart from the other characters as she is the only survivor by the end of the film. This is similar to our main character is "Dark Nightmare" called Fai as she is set apart from the group since she is the only one having disturbing nightmares.
In a way, Sally is the character which suffers most emotionally during the film as she watches her sibling get murdered in front of her eyes and has none of her friends from the group with her for support. Her fear and stress therefore increases as the film goes on. Our main character is "Dark Nightmare" is victim of similar emotions as the people close to her die one after the other, building her fear and panic every time another person dies.

Final Destination 2
The Final Destination 2and Dark Nightmare is very similar.
In the story there is comparison where the main character has a dream/ vision
of what is going to happen in the future. She tries to stop it from happening
and she tries to protect her friends but however she realises that no one can
escape from death. In Dark nightmare it is a similar story where the main character
(Fai) has a dream about how however group of friends are going to die and she
is very disturbed about there’s dreams as she has been having them every day. She
gets scared and depressed in how she is going to lose her loved ones. The thing
Fai is frightened about is how she wakes up with scars of what happens to her
in the dream.
Our chosen main character for Dark Nightmare looks similar to
Kimberly Corman (main character in Final Destination 2).they both have brown hair,
pale smooth faces and both casual dressers. Fai is very emotionally attached to
her friends especially her boyfriend where in this case it is also the same
case in Final Destination 2.
