Differences between Horror and Thriller

Thriller
  • More mature cast
  • Often highly recognised (expensive) actors or actresses 
  • focus is on crime- Who did it? Why? How?
  • Often detective as the lead - victim is not always known to audience 









    Horror
    • Young cast - often teens
    • Violence - blood/guts
    • Focus of narrative is the violence (not the crime)
    • Multiple victims
    • Lead victim often become detective.
    • Suburban setting
    • Adults are absent
