Thriller movies are closely related to Suspense movies in that they are both supposed build up profound excitement, uncertainty, anxiety, and a high sense of expectancy.

Not to mention worry, angst, and other troubling emotions! Many other films in other genres can be also defined as thrillers, indeed almost all genres intertwine with one another most of the time, but if we are going to purely define thriller movies we'll get something like this,

Merriam-Webster Defines a thriller as: one that thrills; especially: a work of fiction or drama designed to hold the interest by the use of a high degree of intrigue, adventure, or suspense.

Basically the film has to make you hold your breath and work you towards the edge of your seat (literally) by the time the climax of the movie arrives.

As you grow increasingly attached to the main characters (usually the good guys) you can't help but worry about their safety and well being.

If viewers wish to turn up the intensity, they can do so by watching horror movies (in my opinion those movies are a waste of time and 'mind') or if they wished to tone it down a bit, a viewer could go to, say a crime, action or adventure movie, and so on....

These good guys, who've endured tremendous life-threatening risks, have always been created to communicate a certain message throughout the movie, be it political, religious, moral, ethical or what have you.

One thing is for sure though, that by the end of the movie they've become our new heroes.

As established in the homepage, here again we find a struggle between right and wrong, between good and evil.

Most of the "classic" thriller movies are in such list because the "good" factor prevailed at the end.

Now days film makers are experimenting with the opposite factor; and in some cases the movie ends without a winning side.

The result? these movies bomb at the box office.

This phenomenon (or agenda, I dare say) is true for most films made today regardless of the genre they belong to.

Everyone is more interested in the good guys winning, and we especially love it when the main character has a Westernized view of the world and stands up by his convictions and principles, wherever that may lead.
