The basic plot of every Thriller is basically Justice vs Injustice, with a slightly blurred line of good and bad, enigmas, red-herrings, plot twists, cliff hangers, shock, Maguffin, . It also contains sub-genres, which is mystery, crime, psychological and political. Certain moods that are mostly created in Thrillers are the sense of murder, menaces, mystery and mostly frequently used; paranoia.
If there was a sum up of a standard Thriller then it would that there are characters taking part in a dangerous mission, risking their life. Escape seems impossible. It creates an Edge-of-your-seat feeling, as you are always anxious on what is going to happen next. Tension really helps to build this kind of feeling, as well as climax, suspense, chases, pursuits and deadlines. Also, there are complex characters, some are troubled, multi-faceted, and morally complex. And you may have also noticed that the Society is always dark and corrupt. This is done on purpose to create that Low-key lighting to create a mysterious, unclear feeling. The fact that you can't actually see some of the characters faces fully, really makes the audience weary and uncomfortable when the character is on screen.
