Suspense and Shock
Shock: A sudden upsetting or surprising event or experience.
Suspense: A state or feeling of excited or anxious uncertainty about what may happen.
In the film 'North by Northwest', an example of Shock would be when the crop duster plane was chasing Roger Thornhill, this is because as the viewer, you do not know what is about to happen.
In the film 'The Birds', an example of shock would be when Lydia finds a dead man with his eyes pecked out. You can clearly see the shock on her face and when the man is shown on camera, this may also shock the audience.
