A red herring is when the audience is tricked into beliveing someone or something is responsible as a diversion technique.
Example: a person held responsible for a crime and the audience is manipulated into believing they are the culprit, however, it is actually a different character all along.
A cliff-hanger is a useful technique used in many thrillers whereby it basically leaves the story open ended. This draws in the audience as they want to see the outcome, holding their interest. (Commonly used in TV Drama as the series will continue.)
This is a good technqiue to use as it creates an eerie atmosphere and will allow the audience to deduce their own ending to our thriller film.
