psychological horror film. The influence for the DVD cover was the research into ‘The Shining’ and ‘Rosemary’s Baby’‚ which are the conventional films of the sub-genre‚ with ‘Rosemary’s Baby’ being one of the first psychological horrors to be produced. My research into women in the psychological horror sub-genre showed that women were represented in a negative manner.

Neither women or blacks had the opportunity to prosper and be successful because they‚ of course‚ mere seen as inferior to the superior white male. However‚ in “Désirée’s Baby” Chopin informs the reader
