Research: Film Image Analysis (Dawn Of The Dead 1979)

                              
This is an important shot within this scene and is why it has got an impressive censorship history. The mise-en-scene of body horror is clearly used in the shot to make the audience feel really uncomfortable and possibly queasy. Tom Savini is the special effects director and is well known for his gory on screen body horror. He has worked on many other well-known films such as “From Dusk Till Dawn” and “Django Unchained”. Cinematography techniques were also used to emphasise this shot as much as possible. By using a canted angle and close up shot, it creates the effect that the audience is right up close to the guts which may make them feel uneasy.
