Thriller film titles

Film titles

Titles of movies don't always exactly relate to the actual movie its self. Sometimes the title is made so that it gives the audience some thing to think about. Dead silence is an example of this because it doesn't give away the plot of the actual movie, however it hints towards the fact that the movie will have something to do with lack of understanding and fear of the unknown; This being because silence connotes lack of communication and mystery.

The Rite gives the plot away very well because it connotes that movie will be about some kind of religious ceremony. This being a good example of a title giving away the plot and not making the audience think hard about the title. Another thing that the title does is straight away give away the fact  that this movie is aimed at a niche audience because it limits it to people who are interested in thriller based religious ceremonies.

Inception. This title makes people think because the word inception means the basic meaning of inception means the starting point of an establishment or activity, this meaning that the audience needs to think about the title meaning because the title unlike The Rite doesn't give away the plot
