Types  of Thriller 

A thriller is a film genre that doesn't rely on supernatural elements to entice the audience.
The thriller is a very difficult genre to pin down because it covers a diverse range of films. Thrillers are film of suspense….that are supposed to insist terror on the audience.’ Susan Hayward, Key concept in film Studies.

 Legal- Law Abiding Citizen

“When you enjoy something, you must never let logic get in the way. Like the villians of the James Bond movies. Whenever Bond breaks into the complex, ‘Ah Mr Bond, welcome, come in. Let me show you my entire evil plan and then put you in a death machine that dosen’t work”- Jerry 
Seinfeld.
