Today we looked at the range of films that could be included under the Action/Adventure umbrella. We started to look at the main elements that make up the Quest, Disaster, Fantasy, Swashbuckler, Historical and Thriller sub-genres. The film clip in your exam could come from any of these sub-genres - or a hybrid of more than one - and so it is important that you become familiar with them. HOME LEARNING

Two guys notice they are out of Jaffa cakes and go on a journey to get some more, all hell breaks loose on their journey as zombies and stuff take over Croyden on their way to the local tesco. They get to the shops and grab the last packet of Jaffa cakes and head home to finish their LAN match and biscuits. Zombie things burst through the windows leaving space for a sequel that sucks and leaving the audience on a cliff hanger

I think euan's genre is a quest as they are searching for the jaffa cakes as they have none left.

I think this story outline is quest, the quest being that they have to try and find more jaffa cakes, with loads of drama on the way.

Post-apocalyptic setting. A group of friends realize a zombie like virus has overpowered being contaminated and has spread throughout the world, they go on a journey to escape the zombies. The solution is they find the 'safe place' which is a boat that leaves to go to a secret island. The film ends and from this there is a sequal.

Twin's are born and everything seems ok, but within the hospital there has been an out break of some sort of plague, this plague can apparently cause you to go crazy and hunger for any sort of flesh.
