Specific genres like horror, thriller, and sci-fi films contain certain tropes that signal their genre. For example, horror films commonly feature a damsel in distress character, usually a woman, who is in danger or dies. They also usually include an antagonist, like Freddy Krueger from Nightmare on Elm Street, who drives the events of the film.

Sound is used to build suspense, like Freddy Krueger's nursery rhyme that warns of impending doom.
