Horror Costume Analysis

Idea 1: The pigs head and the butchers costume is scary when combined and it would shock viewers if editing was used correctly to make the character appear in a shocking way. It adds the question to how it ended up appearing this way.

Idea 2: A more realistic view by creating a mouth that is connected to a body plate gives the illusion of a horror film. difficult to make, scary with the appropriate use of editing and special effects.
 

Idea 3: The face of this character is well known by the film 'The Scream' which would immediatly inform the audience of the genre. It is constantly copied to add tension, it can be copied for my trailer to follow the theme of the horror cliche.
 
Idea 4: Costumes such as this are easy to make as it involves the use of rags that have been stained to support the idea of an undead villian. Fake blood and a mask supports the creepy vibe that is meant to come across in the trailer. The use of fake blood on a saw is scary to the viewer as it shows that this character has already commited murder. Is the main character next?

Idea 5: The costumes above and below are designed specifically to appear more attractive instead of scary, which wouldn't appear in a horror film unless linked with another genre or is related to the plot. For example, the opening set up could be a horror themed party which is what these costumes would be bmade for.
