questionaire on thriller
http://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/XDWHFHF
From the results from the survey, I have found that people like suspense in a thriller just as much as they expect it. The majority of the people who took this survey were females and they as females, expected the protagonist to be a female as from stereotypical viewpoint, are used to seeing this. The least exciting aspect of a thriller film that the people who took my survey thought, was the plot because they expect most of the storyline that is incorporated in thriller genre. As music is a major factor in people's 'enjoyment' of a thriller film, I wanted to choose music that was specific and was relevant to the points in the opening sequence and how it caused the suspense that was needed.
