Interview 1
1) What do you expect to get from thriller movies?
Personally, I’d want to see something surreal, out of the norm. For instance, maybe an event which wouldn’t happen in reality, but will play with your mind to convince you that it can have a possibility of happening. For example, ‘Harry Potter’ is an innovative movie with features expressed to the viewers in a way to make them feel involved and long for this type of world to exist; as fantasy being a characteristic which enthrals any type of audience.
2) What is that one thing that you believe a Thriller movie MUST have?
I think a thriller should have originality, because if there is a lack of authenticity, and then the film itself, would lose value. Viewers need to be engaged in the storyline, and I believe if it surpasses their expectations, then the movie will not be able to meet its goals. For example every minor detail would need to be taken care of, as there has to be an element of general meaning to anything within the production.
3) Should a thriller be resolved in the end or should it have a cliff hanger? And why?
Although I have a guilty pleasure for thriller movies, even if I know how much it psychologically affects me, I would prefer to have a resolution to the problem, just to ease my mind and put it at rest. However, depending on certain situations, for example if a film was to inevitably end tragically, on a personal level, I would rather have it cliff-hang, just to avoid visually experiencing the misfortune.
4) What is a ‘cliché’ type of Thriller movie and would you have preferred anything different?
I personally believe films which involve psychos as the villains are slightly cliché; however I’m not undermining this, as there is a film which uses this technique, which is the movie, A Nightmare on Elm Street. The storyline is also a big factor in distinguishing a typical movie to a unique movie. Considering this, I haven’t seen a thriller which I was disappointed in yet, as every varying detail is intriguing to me so far, which has definitely left me inspired.
5) If you were to make one yourself, what would your Thriller movie be about?
As I am frightened of horror based thrillers, such thrillers as adventures are more appealing to me. If I was to relate to a specific film, it definitely would be such successful series books like Harry Potter and Twilight, which is more fascinating to broader/wider audience bases; therefore I would see myself utilising special techniques form those types of films, and maybe look deeper into certain books.
Interview 2
1) What do you expect to get from thriller movies?
I’d say a fictional story line with a touch of adventure. I would like to see lots of suspense, bumps, action and horror.
2) What is that one thing that you believe a Thriller movie MUST have?
Action! (By this, I mean stunts!)
3) Should a thriller be resolved in the end or should it have a cliff hanger? And why?
Definitely should be solved at the end, I hate waiting for part two-s! (joke) But seriously speaking, sequels keep the audience waiting for the answer in their next part. Resolving the enigma makes things less complicated and lives you satisfied!
4) What is a ‘cliché’ type of Thriller movie and would you have preferred anything different?
Somethin related to blood, ghosts or exorcism. Although that's the theme of thriller, I'd prefer something that's not so ‘mind-creeping’ and ‘spooky’- that way, I don’t have to be afraid about hitting the bed! Hmm... Perhaps adding a bit of musical to it would keep the brain absorbed and flattered?
5) If you were to make one yourself, what would your Thriller movie be about?
Maybe the cliché's stated above but with more action and a lot more of a MUSICAL THRILLER =D
When you say musical, do you mean actors singing proper songs in the movie?
Errr... nah. That wouldn’t do! What was I thinking? That’d be like a bollywood movie-sh! Haha- us, Indians need songs in everything lol! But a bit of music, songs to lighten the mood.
