Conventions of a Thriller:
- Essentially about the battle of justice vs. injustice.
- There is often a price to be paid for the conclusion of the story.
- Often a thriller is a film of suspense with a plot structure that reinforces the elements of gamesmanship and the chase.
- Thrillers can be spy based, tales of geopolitical crisis, legal thrillers, medical thrillers, technothrillers or domestic thrillers.
- Commonly thrillers progress with a growing sense of threat or danger and the excitement of pursuit.
-Thriller films are normally shown from two charachter points of view.
-The story is occasionaly told from the view of the villain, which can lead to empathy for the villain also at their twisted understanding or peraps disturbiing past that has led to the present.
-Events in the storyline enable the film to progress, and allow the audience to second guess what will happen next. In many films this will be wrong so adds to suspense.
