Seven was one of the films we watched for inspiration to create our thriller.
seven involves a cop, Detective William Somerset who is about to retire, and Detective David Mills, who breaks in his replacement. They both become involved in a serial killer investigation. This serial killer chooses his victims from people who performed one of each of the seven deadly sins, as he sees himself as being the 'flaming sword of God', judging these sinners.
The mise-en-scene of seven is a typical thriller,there is diegetic lighting, so in some places the light appears quite dim, this tends to be in the parts where murders have just been committed or investigated. This is classic in a thriller film to have dark lighting to build tension and draw the audience in.
seven is very similar to your average thriller, builds up tension and suspense all the way through, music is scary which also helps to create that suspense and the low key lighting, as being in dark places are always more heart racing.
