Need Feedback: “Anatomy of a Thriller Opening”

-- What Makes This Work?

Just created a new NotebookLM-generated breakdown called “Anatomy of a Thriller Opening.” Honestly, it did a solid job pulling out the tension mechanics and structure

… but I want to hear from you'll.

What do YOU think makes a thriller opening actually land?

-- Is it the atmosphere? The first shock? The character hook? The pacing?

If you watched the breakdown:

What did NotebookLM get right?
What did it miss?
And what parts should be emphasized more if we turn this into a video format for the channel?

I want this to be a community-driven breakdown, so drop your thoughts below -- even one sentence helps. Let’s build the ultimate thriller-opening formula together. 🔥🎬
