In my opinion, the definition of a thriller is a film that uses suspense, mystery, intrigue, excitement to engage the audience. Films usually do this by having a well developed storyline. There are several sub-genres in the category of thrillers.
This includes:
- psychological
- action
- horror
- crime
- mystery
The use of enigma in the storyline is the key element of a thriller film as this is where the audience gets interested and hooked into watching the movie. If a thriller has poor use of enigma and cannot stimulate its audience, then it will be regarded as a poorly made film and will not attract people to watch it. Proof of a good thriller is that the audience will still be talking about it after they've viewed it. They'll discuss what happened, what they think they saw, what they think are the answers to their unanswered questions etc. The thrill of the film still sticks with them even after they have seen the movie.
