Thriller Opening Scene Research (Part 2) - Audience Research

Survey Research

 We conducted an online survey for our thriller research to give us an idea as to what would appeal to a thriller audience. A psychological thriller was the most popular choice for type of thriller, this means we will have to include some emotionally unstable dialogue for our killer in the thriller opening scene. 
The Usual Suspects was the most popular response for all time favourite thrillers, therefore we should analyse The Usual Suspects opening scene to give some sort of guidance for our own thriller. Also, from our survey we discovered that the most popular protagonist would be a detective whose partner had been killed, however we are still going to carry on with the idea of a woman jogging. We also found out that people are most scared while watching thrillers if the bad guy is mentally deranged, we can try to incorporate this into our own thriller opening. Finally we gave a list of suggested film names to choose from and the most popular answer was 'Into The Fire' this is a relevant title to our thriller opening because there is a lot of focus on fire and items being burnt.
