Thriller films are more psychological and they require more thought and explanation within the film itself. The purpose of a thriller movie is to constantly keep you on the edge of your seat and make the movie unpredictable in order to keep the audience fully engaged for the whole film. A Thriller movie is supposed to tell a story, which is usually what makes the audience on the edge of their seat for the whole film whereas a horror main convention is to 'horrify' the audience and the storyline is a secondary priority. An example of a thriller movie would be Dunkirk. Horror films and Thriller films do overlap. Horror movies can be thrilling, whilst Thrillers can be horrifying. An example of this would be the film 'Get Out'. Horror films provide jump scares which keep you glued to the back of your seat. A horror film adds a sense of fear and it is made to frighten you. A horror film is a movie that seeks to elicit a physiological reaction, such as an elevated heartbeat, through the use of fear and shocking one's audiences.
