Meeting the Audience's Expectations.

A few months ago I conducted a survey to find out what the target audience expects from a thriller.
To see the results please click here.

My protagonist is female, as suggested by the audience.
Also, I learnt from my survey that the audience expect an unhappy, cliff-hanger ending and the ending to my plot is a cliff hanger (as it is unclear whether Emma has truly let go of Jane) and it is unhappy in the fact that Emma has lost two of the closest, and only, friends she's ever had.
The plot includes many Red Herrings, which are the clues to George's and Jane's real existence that prove to be false.
Death plays a part in the film in that Emma takes an overdose after she believes she has murdered Jane- this affects the protagonists mental state greatly.
