The Sixth Sense - Psychological Thriller

For the first 3 minutes of the opening clip, credits are being shown, with eerie music playing quietly but profoundly in the background, and when the title come a huge booming noise is heard to impact on the title 'The Sixth Sense'. After dark lighting on the first clip is used, and just a lightbuld is shown warming up, it automatically tells the audience that the film is going to be creepy. A mature cast is shown, as you are nearly straight away introduced to a middle aged woman, and then onto Dr. Malcom Crowe, a child psychologist. Slowly the music starts to build up again after the woman and man head up stairs to their bedroom, and they see broken glass, obviously being broken from the outside in, and after the woman screams a little after feeling and seeing a shadow move into their bathroom, the music gets louder and louder telling the audience that something weird and unusual is about to happen. A strange man is seen in the bathroom, who is hardly wearing anything and talking strangely to the main character, which makes the audience quiz why the man is there and when you find out that he used to be one of Dr Malcoms patients, it makes the scene even more strange and twisted to the audience. The music helps to build up the strange and awkward atmosphere and his mood swings make it even more mysterious.
Although the audience don't know it quite yet after watching this clip, it is soon realsied that this will be a clue as to something that the Protagonist must do to help the guy standing in his bathroom, and that he has already become isolated as no one else understands what and how this strange man will react and behave as only Dr Malcom knows what he is like.

Throughout the whole clip, the micro elements helped to build up suspense, the lighting being dark, the music being creepy and eerie and the camerawork follows the characters nicely, and isn't too jumpy at the start however when the creepy music starts to play building up the suspense, handheld camerawork is used to make the characters feel slightly uncomfortable at what they are about to see on the screen.
