I will be seeing how the Movie shows its genre of thriller using the analysis of M.E.S, Camera Angles, and Sound and Editing.

Throughout the opening of the film the lighting is always
musky and dark. I think this makes the film more effective being a Thriller genre.
The lighting makes the atmosphere of the film to be Realistic and ‘Formal’. The
realistic nature of the film makes it appear more believable which Thrillers
sometimes can be. In addition to the realistic lighting the costumes are not
completely out of proportion. The suits and clothes which each individual
character wears seem to be realistic within se7en and the atmosphere of realism
allows the audience to engage with the Events and characters.
Overall I think the Realistic atmosphere of Se7en is a way in which the audience can decipher how Se7en is classed as a sensible thriller.
A close up shot of names being crossed out is a clever shot in creating an atmosphere of mystery and tension which is an iconic thriller effect. The way the names are being crossed out make the atmosphere to appear quite sinister and eerie as you quickly think people are being murdered as they are being crossed out.
In Conclusion the clever shots of the names being crossed out, in with the realism of the movie separate it from horror genre as its realistic and can be seen as a today situation. This is what makes it appear as a thriller.
