What is a Thriller?
Films that primarily use action and suspense to enagage the audience. They emphasize nervous tension and anxiety, as opposed to horror films which emphasize fear, or action movies which emphasize exhilaration. It relies on a minimum of pugilistic action using mystery and suspence.
Alfred Hitchcock was the first to effectively use 'the common man' as a protagonist. Typically, characters in thrillers include convicts, criminals, stalkers, assassins, down-on-their luck losers, innocent victims, prison inmates, menaced women, characters with dark pasts, psychotic individuals, terrorists, cops, drifters, fugitives and psycho-fiends and others.
