The Silence Of The Lambs Is A Psychological Thriller

By Charles Walton

One of the best psychological thriller movies of all time would be The Silence of the Lambs. It is full of compelling drama and suspense that keeps viewers glued to the screen from the very beginning. Based on the book by Thomas Harris it was brought to life in an amazing way.

With Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster playing the leading roles in the movie, it is one of the best combination's of talent that people could wish for when choosing a movie that will keep them riveted to the screen in front of them. His performance as Hannibal Lecter and hers of agent Clarisse Starling are done in such a manner that those that cast the roles could not have asked for anything better.

The way that the killer goes about his victimizing is something that few other movies have brought to the screen. It shows some of the most horrifying thoughts that a person could have to life in a manner that seems very real to people that are watching. A great deal of work was put into bringing these things to the screen in such a way.

The way that the human psyche is brought into this movie also gives the viewer's a lot to think about while they watch the movie. Not only does it stimulate them visually, but also mentally. Many people are terrified by the film which is the whole intent that the writers were hoping to achieve.

Sound effects ranging from music to vocal tones also add to the element of the film. Jail cells and narrow halls also do this and in combination these effects make this movie even more chilling to viewer's.

The stars of this movie deserve a lot of credit for the wonderful performances that they did when it comes to bringing the characters to life. There are also a lot of people behind the scenes of this movie that deserve a lot of credit for the hard work that they put into it as well.

It is no doubt that this movie would receive nominations as well as awards. The creativity and imagination used for this film is something that will never be forgotten and is something to note in the history of movie making. The casting of the two main characters was the absolute perfect picks for a film of this nature and they did the job with the quality and finesse that they are noted for.

This has to be one of the best horror films of all time and is a must see for anyone that likes this type of movie. The Silence of the Lambs deserves all of the praise that it has received and more for being a movie that has earned its place in history. Anyone liking chillers and suspense movies that have not seen this one do not have any idea what they are missing out on!
