Sub-Genres:
Crime Thrillers: This particular genre is a hybrid type of both crime films and thrillers that offers a suspenseful account of a successful or failed crime or crimes. These films often focus on the criminal rather than a policeman. Crime thrillers usually emphasise action over psychological aspects. Central topics of these films include serial killers/murders, robberies, chases, shootouts and heists. An example of a Crime thriller is Oceans 13 along with the others in the trilogy.
Mystery Thrillers: Suspense films where characters attempt solving, or involved in, a mystery. The usual stereotypes of a mystery thriller would be involving a crazed or disillusioned character. An example of a typical mystery thriller is black swan.
Political Thrillers: In which the hero/heroine must ensure the stability of the government that employs him. A typical sterotype would be a hero trying to topple the corrupt regime usually involving in a race against time before a deadline or the charecter is caught. An example of a political thriller is Vantage point.
Religious Thrillers: In which the plot is closely connected to religious objects, institutions and questions. While suspense stories have always shown a significant affinity for religion and philosophical issues. An example of a religious thriller is The DA Vinci Code.
Out of all the Sub-genres we had found we decided to focus on a combination of Action or Horror as from our experiences in watching and analysing thrillers action and horror both appealed to the group and we felt that it would allow us to explore and it also interested us the most.
