Un-canny Element

(Gin Gwai 2002)

I find this scene very scary even though not very much happens. I think it's all to do with the feeling of suspense. The music adds an element with its low beat gradually getting faster and faster with no other sounds interrupting. When the man un-cannyily floats towards her the audience know that something isn't right with this person and we fear for the character as she is in a confined space.

I can relate this to my un-canny proposal. In my sequence the character is trapped within a confined space with a humanoid that isn't right by the way it moves.
