The conventions for an thriller mainly consist of sound, editing for example, quick cuts simulating the horror that the character feels, the music, this is very effective because it helps create tension within the film. For example films like 'Batman The Dark Knight' there are a lot quick cuts, low angels, and jump shots with locations in dark ally ways this is very effective because it's showing the conventions of a thriller, shadow like figures, dark corners, music that is parallel towards the action within the scene.
It is easy to recognize the thriller conventions with a movie because the key elements are, dark areas, creepy music, camera angles that show partial outlines of objects.
Thrillers give the audience a time to think about the storyline because it's like a mind game, constant suspense is being built up within the film and spine chilling tricks. for example, in the Film 'Drag Me Into Hell' when the women was in the shed there were constant signs of something larking in every corner but for a while it was only here figment of imagination until the old gypsy women pops out, this is where it shocks the audience because there was a high amount of suspense was built up for the right moment.
