The Thriller: Scripting Seat-Gripping Suspense plumbs nine-score thrillers for recurring features that build nape-prickling, heart-pounding suspense. Fodder for analysis embraces domestic and foreign fare, classic and contemporary, ranging from Ghost, Speed, Seven, Psycho, and The Silence of the Lambs to La Femme Nikita and Yogen [Premonition].Text eschews a connecting-the-dots, painting-by-numbers approach, in belief that formulas drain the lifeblood of creativity and inevitably spawn a ho-hum product. That said, the eight factors culled from the covered films constitute useful tools in the screenwriter’s arsenal.Perhaps the best groundwork for a thriller is infiltrating the ATF/FBI/IRA, or a brigade of arms-running mercenaries. Short of that, watching films and reading scripts will work wonders. In that spirit, the book debuts three feature-film scripts for critical scrutiny: mystery thriller 'Stateline'; police thriller 'Cashing Out'; supernatural thriller 'Birthmarks.' 3

  • Existential Hell
    Lawrence J. Corneck / Lawrence JCorneck
    A screenplay is a Work of Art. As such, it is subject to artistic manipulation in form and content to achieve an artistic reaction. The essence of Screenplay Writing is Compression. It tries to 'Say the Most' with the 'Least'. It does not have the luxury of novelistic grandiosity in its ability to explore 'Mind Set'; nor does it have the luxury of stage play verbosity in its ab...
