Examples of conventional horror camera techiniques



Mother's Day (1980) horror-thriller film
The low angle shows the mother’s power over the girl in the shot.




Michael Jackson’s thriller music video  
The music video uses horror conventions such as this extreme close up.
 

Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (1960)
Psycho also uses a extreme close up in the shower scene as Marion screams.
  

 Cloverfield (2008) monster horror-thriller film
Cloverfield is filmed all in hand held camera and from the characters point of view making the viewer feel they are living the experience and that the events could actually have happened.
