This term means the way something is done, seen and influenced through something else. In different genres, the films carry out the same or similar steps from the start of the film in the lead up to the end. Audiences do not notice this, as the Mis-en-scene does not give of many implications of similarity. however, the plot of most films in the genre compare, including some visual scenes, such as the stereotypical and common sight of a blonde woman being a victim of murder by a male in a shower with curtains. This is a good clear example.
The idea of a woman getting killed in the shower is perfectly portrayed in the classic film "psycho". The woman takes a shower whilst a manly figure appears through the curtain. it continues to the realisation of the figure in the view of the woman, whilst tussling along with the curtain being stained and damaged. It results in the woman being positioned in the bath whilst the water still runs. this has influenced a majority of the shower scenes that are produced in different films, using the same visual interpretations. A film that has used the same concepts that have been used in "Psycho" is in Fatal Attraction.

Blonde woman is portrayed as the victim in this iconic shower scene, similar to Psycho. Also, the tussle that leads to the death is similar, as they are both structured in the same way.
These scenes are not ideal for the scenes that we plan to use for the thriller. however, noticing the concept, we are aware that there are many other situations were intertextuality can be used. this means that when it comes to the planning of the groups thriller opening, research will take place on the basis of intertextuality being used with different interpretations.
