Thriller Sub Genre Convetions

The two films that I have chosen are Insidious and Hanna. Insidious is a psychological thriller and Hanna is a action thriller. The reasons for these sub genre differences are because Insidious contains suspense that is created from characters preying upon one and others minds. The suspense is also portrayed by the micro areas, espicially sound. This is because the sound runs parallel with the shots creating alot of tension and suspense which creates a massive impact on the viewer. Hanna also uses sound to aid suspense however it uses lound, fast sound to help illustrate a chase scene. In Insidious the conflict is psychological and creepy but in Hanna the conflict is physical. Another difference between these two films is that Hanna conatains alot of weapons whereas Insidious doesn't. In conclusion both Insidious and Hanna have simularities and differences which create suspense.
