Horror Lighting Tutorial

What are three key techniques that these filmmakers created tension with their lighting in this scene? How did they use lighitng effectively?

Illuminating the victim's face is important in making the audience associate themselves with the character. In that way, they will be able to feel a similar sense of horror that the character is feeling. Color can come to use in various ways. For example, using a blue light to demonstrate a cold night can be justas horrifying as using area light to demonstrate intense fear. Any extreme colors that doesn't appear in the natural world is effective for a horror film. Underexposing footage can also be effective in giving the audience minimum information so that they can fill in the blank for themselves.
