The film 'Lovefield' is said to 'combine elements of HORROR, SUSPENSE and DRAMA to create a story that takes the audience on a roller coaster ride of emotions.'* From the beginning you get the impression, that something bad is going to happen from the colors used, the music as well as the font of the film title which fades into a grey. The camera takes you through a corn field and through the use of various fades I got the sense that as the viewer i was waiting to find something, I straight away had the awareness something bad was going to happen. The phone noise which rapidly gets louder as you get closer to the finding, as the camera pans you see the phone, an open bag with money on the floor and an item covered in blood this instantly gives the audience a bad impression. Straight away I thought that the girl had been raped, but in fact it was almost the complete opposite. Through the use of the camera work, and clever use of sound the storyline to what you thought was happening turns around. I especially found the shot of the foot extremely clever, the fact that the foot gave the impression that the female was in pain.
