Thriller films have specific conventions and themes in which they have to follow. The majority of thrillers consist of...
- A crime that has to be solved. This is focus of the narrative.
- Close ups which make the images disorientated.
- Synester, low beat music which is usually followed by exaggerated noises/ sound effects.
- Phycological.
- Mystery.
- More experimental editing e.g. parallel/ non linear/ montage.
- Government as background to narrative- often in an action thriller.
- Binary opposite characters which consist mainly of the protagonist and the antagonist.
- Themes of mirroring/ illusion/ mistaken identity.
- Protagonist is often isolated.
- Objectification of females e.g. females are often isolated.
- Voyeurism- audience becomes a voyeur- watching without knowing (becoming more involved in the thriller.)
