types of thrillers

there are several different types of thrillers and these are:

spy thrillers:
the protagonist is a spy and the villian is usually a lot stronger better equippeted and wealthy. the filr reqiures the spy to stealtly find out the villans master plan and take him down. but a majority of the time like in the james bond films the villian will capture the spy and tell him the master plan. the villian will then proceed to kill the spy by putting him into instant death situations like a pool of sharks, but noooo..... the spy always has a special tool that he secretary gave him earlier and he escapes and takes down the villian and making hes so called "master plan" a complete failure.

political thrillers:
a political thriller is a thriller set in against the backdrop of a political popwer struggle. political thrillers also involve extra-legal plots, made to give political power to someone, whilst hes opponent tries to stop him. political thrillers can involve national and internatnional political scenerios. an example of a political thriller is the manchurian candidate (1962) which i have already done a post on. the politiacl thing in this film is that the assassin is brainwashed into killing the senator of the (USA) so hes step dad has a better chance of winning the election.

psychological thrillers:
a psychological thriller is a specific sub genre of the broad ranged thriller with heavy focus on the charecters. psychlogical thrillers are usually about messing with bthe mind of another person in the film like in the manchurian candidate(mentioned above) the man is brainwashed into being a assassin from watching the most gorey things and then being brainwashed into into killing one another.
