How 6th sense is a thriller

1) Darkness throughout. We first see complete darkness, then a lightbulb glowing slowly on. We also see a dull screen when the light is fully on as it is not a strong light. There is also a door which goes into a very dark room and is slightly ajar. This is meant to make us feel uneasy/ frightened as we are waiting for something to come out of the dark.

2) Eerie music is played. At the start, before we see the light bulb glow and light up, there is a strange piece of music played. This makes us uncomfortable but sits us down ready to watch it, waiting for something to happen.

3) Never a full shot of the room. We never see the cellar in a whole, throughout the opening sequence. It is mainly close/ mid sshots of it. This is done so that we are unsure about what the whole place looks like. It makes us want to see what is around the room so we feel better about the situation.

  1. Why is the camera placed behind the wine unit? What effect does this create?

    Can you include more analysis here?
