Suspense is an important technique use in most films’ genres particularly in a thriller or horror movie. It builds up the tension towards the audience. This occurs when a certain scene lead up to a dramatic moment or an unexpected event which stir the audience’s emotions mainly in a state of uncertainty and anxiety.
The use of Suspense helps the audience to engage with the film which allows them to crave for more and overcome their unpleasant tensions. Also, it’s enigmatic, which means that it’s mysterious and puzzling that keeps the audience guessing of what can/will happen later on in a film.
The elements in a film use in creating suspense involve sounds (e.g. a shrieking sound while someone is opening the door), a specific mise-en-scene (e.g. dark lighting in an alley), dramatic acting, camera shots and editing.
