What is the best location/scenery for a thriller movie? (Please state and explain why)

Here are the answers that we received.

• “Abandoned House or alone in a house”- you can relate to it.

• “A haunted house because this creates a great atmosphere”

• “Dark and empty scene- deserted. Because it makes it more interesting and suspicious.

• “A graveyard as it builds suspense and it makes me want to carry watching”.

By looking at the answers that’s written above, we found out that the participants enjoy it when the scenery is set in a isolated and dark place as it suits the mood of thriller. From reading the answers we have decided to locate our filming in a deserted place where there is no one to be seen around expect the characters, this makes it look interesting as it creates a tense atmosphere which makes the audience to sit on the edge of their chairs.
