Four Thriller clips (Lesson before xmas)

In our last media lesson before we broke up for our Christmas holidays we watched four clips of four movies which included: 28 Days Later, The Shining, Collateral and What Lies Beneath.
Before we started watching these clips from each of these movies we made a brainstorm about what a thriller actually is and also the different types of thriller categories. Using the films that we watched as examples; The Shining was a supernatural thriller and Collateral was a political thriller.
Whilst watching each clip we had to fill in a table that we had been given prior to watching the clips of each film, in each section we had to write about the lighting, use of camera movement, angle, and distance, music, sound effects, and soundtrack, editing and the setting and location of each thriller.
