suspense and shock

Imagine a scene in a film similar to this (classroom, student, teacher). the camera reveals that there is a bomb under the table to the audience but we the (audience, student and teacher ) are unaware of this.

  • Will we be saved?
  • Will the bomb go off?

This is suspense.

Now image the same scene except that instead of the camera revealing the bomb under the table it, with any warning explodes and kills all present !

  • This is shock !

An example of this is children of men
