Movies under the genre thriller

                                        


Me and my team decided on a thriller. We chose it for our mutual love of horror, yet we felt like thriller fit the vision for our vision more along with us feeling like it would be more practical for us to film. Some examples of thrillers are:

US


The movie US which played with the idea of doppelgangers and what could happen if they had help from a conscious being. According to Rotten Tomato "fears soon become a reality when four masked strangers descend upon the house, forcing the Wilsons into a fight for survival. When the masks come off, the family is horrified to learn that each attacker takes the appearance of one of them."

Ready or Not


Another thriller movie would be Ready or Not, which follows the path of a significant other being betrayed due to a sinister motive behind it. The main character Grace has married her soulmate at his grand house, ignorant of the family's past, finding herself fighting for her life while her in-laws hunt her down to kill her before dawn.

Black Phone

Lastly, another movie would be Black Phone. This movie gives off the sense of “Who is the killer” and allows the reader to learn clues along with the characters. Rotten Tomato describes it as "Finney, a shy but clever 13-year-old boy, is abducted by a sadistic killer and trapped in a soundproof basement where screaming is of little use. When a disconnected phone on the wall begins to ring, Finney discovers that he can hear the voices of the killer's previous victims. And they are dead set on making sure that what happened to them doesn't happen to Finney."

Discussion on genres and sub-genres

 Tropes are things that are specific to certain types of genres. To understand tropes we have to understand what genres are.  According to StudioBinder genre can be defined as "categories where a particular movie can be placed based on the setting, characters, plot, mood, tone, and theme."  Genres also have sub-genres, which are "smaller category that fits inside a particular genre" Overall the combination of genres and sub-genres allows for the overall combination of a great film.
