RESEARCH - Intertextuality

Intertextuality is when a basic principle or idea from one project is used in other projects. In movies intertextuality is used when a particular idea from one movie appears in another.

A very common example of intertextuality is from the shower scene in the movie 'Psycho'. The principle of being murdered in a bath tub and left there is used in other movies such as 'The stepfather' and 'fatal attraction'.
