What is a Thriller?

In our media lessons, we have studied a film called 'The Usual Suspects', which is a thriller. We looked at different elements such as lighting, mis-en-scene and sound which help make the film a thriller.

What is a thriller?

- good versuses evil
- hidden twists in the plot
- hidden character identities
- dark lighting
- murder
- flashbacks (to help explain the story)
- death
- mystery
- criminals
- police
- lighting e.g. ambient, natural or low and artificial
