Something which could be a massive thing, however,
again keeping them on their seats, making them how
unsettled they were
Adrenaline rush
Something which excites the audience and makes them really excited
to carry on watching and getting them to keep watching and would like
theme
Unsettled feelings
People like to know what's going on. Taking away that safety unsettles them
massively, and makes them be on edge, connecting to the adrealine rush getting
massive.
Scare the audience
Not in the same way as horror movies do however
Instead of scaring us through fear in the way a disturbing looking
monster does, scares us through the fear of the unknown,
Scaring through unsettling rather than more than just
other, so no many monsters, Rather just relying on the
jump scares and unsettling things
Not really scaring the audience, unless it is
used to help horror movies, as normally it is
used to just drive up fear not really pay it off
Suspense has now been given a genre devoted to it- Thriller
Movies that just get tenser as they go on
Alfred Hitchcock particularly good at this, with the
famous scenes from North by Northwest with the
cropduster scene being especially a notable
example
Obviously paying off
eventually, otherwise it
would just lose the creep
factor that gains from being
what it is normally does
have, however, still incredibly
creepy
One of the most popular genres
right now, being one of the biggest
genre except from action, such as
Gone Girl, and also Lucy being very
notable examples, showing how
the mass audiences likes them
Popular Thrillers- Reservoir Dogs, Fargo, Anything by Alfred
Hitchcock. Coen Brothers being a notable other director, also
Tarantino being a notable director also being very good at adding
suspense
Directors use this to make the audience feel scared, and ramp up
for a jump scare, and keep them on their seats
