This is a short trailer I have shot and put together for my Alevel media course at college. I'm not to happy with alot of this trailer (mainly sound effects and editing) as it was rushed a little to be finished by my deadline. So this probably wont be that final copy of the trailer. Enjoy :)
Tunes were good and the bit where you looked through dat guyz legs was pretty sick, y0. I'd say use a font that's a bit less standard, or specifically, one that isn't Arial. (AND LOCK TO STRETCH AT 00:40, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS OPERATOR PERRY.)

...But on the other hand, it can also turn viewers away as they don’t know what they are going to see. I would probably go and see this if it was a short film but not as a full length as I don’t think it shows enough of what it is going to be about. And also, you misspelled ‘Neighbourhood’ in the title of this video. PWOK!

...A criticism from me would have to be that there wasn’t a clear plot given by this trailer, you can watch this and still not have that clear of a mind of what this film is going to be about. That can work both ways, a viewer can see the action involved and be drawn towards the mystery of the neighbourhood, want to see what is actually chasing that brilliant actor etc...

...I feel you could have made them fit the creepy and mysterious theme more rather than just plain default red text. ( Could have had some leafal fonts and stuff.) My favourite part was the chase scene as this showed that there was something there to be scared of, a reason not to enter this dreaded neighbourhood everybody has been talking about. (Pennywell.) I especially liked the actor from the chase scene, he was brilliant, and had a brilliant maddest cowie face at 00:40...

I personally liked the affect given by the long drone pedal note. It built tension from start to finish and helped keep it more on the eerie side. At about 00:08, I liked the slow pan with the camera at a low level; when it got to the point when it was between his legs, you could tell something was going to happen. ( it looked canny fucking mint when you could see people through some gadgy's legs.) I was not a fan of the text you used mid-scenes...

appeals to me but i would not pay to see it as it does not appear to offer anything different to the typical modern horror film.

The brightly lit corridor contrasted with the darkness of night to create a chilling atmosphere.The speeding up at the start of the video lets the audience get straight into the action rather than being kept waiting.The sound used also helps provide an eerie atmosphere. The chase scene is made more authentic by the shaking camera and the close up of the actors face highlights the terror. Didnt like the titles as i thought they were cliched and a bit on the cheesey side. As a horror fan this film
