Thrillers tend to be fast paced with quick cuts. They are full of suspense and tension. The lighting tends to be dark and mysterious. They often like to "play with the viewers minds". A lot of the story is from the killers point of view.
Iconography associated with thrillers:

Shadows
Confined spaces
Street lamps
Codes:
Characters tend to look like normal/average people, wearing clothes that any other person would wear. However certain characters may wear certain colours to connote different things. For example, a mysterious character could be wearing black, an innocent character could be wearing white, and a character who is seen as dangerous could be wearing red.
Again the location of a thriller tends to appear fairly normal, this could be in a house or often in the city. Thrillers tend to have regular props, costumes and locations, but have characters that are mysterious or a storyline that gives the audience "thrills" when they watch it.
