Conventions of a thriller - lighting

Lighting - Kill Bill Vol. 2 - in the murder scene where the characters fight over a sword it can be noted that the lighting is very bright as well as colourful. The fight scene was tinted yellow and bright brown  and was used to reflect the excitement of the audience in the scene. But the director, also used the bright colours in a evil state in order to confuse the audience between the contrast of 'happy colours' and also the extremely physical fight scene. Once the murder has been committed the lighting and scene turns into a dark 'bloody' red, in order to reflect the blood and gore. This is common throughout many thriller/horror films.
