This has some points in it that would make a good narrative but also some holes. The audience need to know, by the end of the film, what is happening and who these people/creatures are. There isn't much resolution in this. Also, the synopsis suggests most of your trailer would be filmed in the dark. This is difficult to make good quality so have a good think about this. What would you say was your chosen genre? Also who is your target audience?

We are aiming our psychological thriller at males and females of 18-25. We do not want all of our trailer to be filmed in the dark, we want a mixture of dark/gloomy and light to show the length of time the characters have been traveling and also the length of time they have be stranded. We have chosen to add in some shots with it being dark to show the tension being created through out.
