We want our antagonist to be a very strange, psychologically damaged character who also has a very strange routine. This relates to the beginning of the film
'American Psycho'. Patrick Bateman [the main character] talks about having a "rigorous exercise routine
"I leave on [my face mask] for 10 minutes whilst I prepare the rest of my routine"
This is another sequence in which a routine is conveyed. It is a section from a TV series called
'Criminal Justice'. This routine starts at: 4:34
Another sequence from a film that relates to our thriller movie opening is from this film;
'Se7en'. The low key lighting in this film is similar to the effect we are hoping to achieve and the sense of a routine is also an idea close to ours.
certainly has potential regarding establishing your character. I think your biggest problem is going to be having too many good ideas and too much material. Still, better that than none at all.
