Psychological Thriller Example Analysis

Psychological Thriller:
Fight Club:

Fight club is a psychological thriller that takes a different take on the concept as you only get hints that something is wrong and hints to the finale, however it still conforms to the conventions of a psychological thriller with a twist in time at the very beginning, this hints toward the twist at the end. The hero is a very ordinary civilian that gets chucked into a world that he doesn't really know what is going on.
The camerawork and lighting is all kept very low-key and this creates a feeling of gloom and brings you down to the characters level. The film explains itself very slowly and you begin to settle into the wrong idea, this help when revealing the big twist at the end as it seems so unexpected.
The feeling of time is very much lost and this helps you feel as the main character does as he is an insomniac and has no real aspect of time.
The main character feels isolated as he has a problem and this keeps in from partaking in normal society, the editing is very subtle and keeps its main focus on the antagonists struggle.
The film starts in a broken equilibrium and is sorted and then broken by the protagonist, yet the protagonist, Marla Stringer, never does anything truly wrong but is made into the bad character as you see things from the antagonists point of view. There is also use of flashbacks to disturb the flow of time.
Fight Club is a very deep psychological film and has to                         break some of the conventions to be as effective as it is.
