Why "Thrillers" Thrive article

The main ideas in this article are:

The Uninteresting Lives of Humans
We as humans need to be excited because our lives aren't as exciting and adventurous as those we see on the big screen, particularly in thrillers because one of the key conventions of a thriller is that extraordinary things happen in ordinary situations. Although saying this, we don't enjoy to be physically put through these situations portrayed in thrillers, we prefer to be in safe surroundings and let our mind venture through the world of fear and tension shown in thrillers.

Our Response to Thrillers
We love to believe everything the actors say and the feeling of our blood rushing as tension is built by many different aspects of thrillers, such as the music or interesting and creative camera shots, which evoke an emotional response from the audience.

The Difference of Horror Films and Thrillers
The brutality and goriness of horror films are not as effective and as enjoyed by the viewers because due to human nature, the level of violence used and the unnatural fear created by horrors is not acceptable and isn't as easily remembered by humans.

IN MY OPINION: The most memorable films are thrillers, Such as the classic thriller "Psycho" by Alfred Hitchcock. This film is still enjoyed by viewers today, even though it was released in 1960.
