Negative is a succesful thriller opening. The first generic convention which was introduced to me as a viewer, was the looped spine chilling sountrack played throughhout the three minutes of film. The second give away of this films genre was the creepy waviness of the text as it came into focus on the screen which was infront of intresting abstract images. The first acting sequence in the opening is the breif shot of a boy looking around then walking off which is well used, because you start asking questions which is what a thriller is.A thriller is a book or film which is designed to keep the reader or viewer on edge with suspenseful and sensational action. Thrillers are enjoyed by many people because of the suspense in the film and the complex plots. In negative the most affective shots are close ups and point of veiw shots. The first close up shot is looking at a series of pictures which introduces the possiblity of a stalker in action. The thing i enjoy about thrillers is how many times you change your mind about what the twist will be, alos i find that you have to whatch some films through twice to see how the twist at the end impacts the whole thing.
