action

A political thriller is a thriller that is set against the backdrop of political power struggle. This was taken from Wikipedia.org.
I think that a political thriller is a movie that has a main plot that is based on a problem in government that could have a major effect on people. The reason it normally has to have an affect on people is this allows them to relate to it.

horror

horror genre is defined on Wikipedia.org as a genre in any medium intended to scare, unsettle or horrify the audience.

we think horror is a genre that is intended solely to frighten the audience and this is why people choose to see these movies. People see horrors as a movie that will create a adrenaline rush.

Shots for Thriller.

Establishing shot - In film and television, an establishing shot sets up, or "establishes", a scene's setting and/or its participants. Typically it is a shot at the beginning (or, occasionally, end) of a scene indicating where, and sometimes when, the remainder of the scene takes place. A good example of establishing shot is

Close Up - A close up is a zoomed in shot of a person or object. A good example of a close up is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgLm4_fq6GY.

Match On Action - Is cutting during action to another angle. A good example of match on action is in this trailer for the bourne identity.

Reaction Shot - A reaction shot is a close up of an emotional reaction from a character. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFQebvkii90

Long Shot - A long shot is exactly what is says on the tin... a long shot of the characters. A good example of this is in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O76m3kpgPTQ.

Over The Shoulder - An over the shoulder shot is one from the point of view of a shoulder, usually looking at another character in a conversation. A good example of this is in the clip
