The Silence of the Lambs
The setting of this scene is dark, gloomy and gritty creating a mysterious atmosphere. The slow paced, different camera angles make the audience wonder what she will discover, leaving the viewer on edge. The music also contributes to this.
The main character 'Clarice - FBI agent' clearly has a fear of death, as you can tell by her slow movement, facial expressions and the way she is violently shaking in the dark. Also, not only does the antagonist have a fascination with death, he is obsessed with the Protagonist and plays with her mind. This leaves the Protagonist in peril.
