gender representation

In horror films the females tends to become the person who lasts out throughout the movie (till the end). They are usually one of the main protagonists.
Males tend to survive throughout the film however they tend to be killed off by the monster/ killer within the film.
In horrors there are usually three groups for males and females in films; the useless character, the hero and the monster.
However males are portrayed as being the killer within horror films and females are shown to be the damsel in distress (being chased by the killer).
