Target Audience for our opening sequence

The film classification for our opening thriller sequence is a 15. This is because the film is based around a teenager therefore teenagers are more likely to relate and enjoy the story line. Moreover, viewers over the age of 30 would most likely get bored of this horror genre and wouldn't find it very exciting because it doesn't relate or interact with elder people. Additionally, a viewer below the age of 15 may actually become quite scared from watching this, potentially causing distress.
 
I looked at the British Board of Film classification which states that a 15 is suitable for a viewer of 15 years or above. An 18 however says its suitable for only adults but our sequence is more fitted for teenagers. In a 15 strong language or violence may be used and there is allowed to be strong threats and horror involved so therefore a 15 classification is just right.
