Conventions of thrillers

Conventions of thrillers

- Fast paced suspenseful music.
- Dark images, nothing happy and optimistic. Thunder clouds, rain or graveyards and hospitals.
- Lots of action scenes. E.g. car chases, fights, lots of movement.
- Usually lots of weapons.
- The main story line consists of the 'hero' going on  quest or trying to save someone or the 'villains' trying to find something because they think it belongs to them or because they will get great wealth or power from it.
- Usually you see the main character running from car chases, explosions or from bad guys.
