Horror movies vs Thrillers.

How do you distinguish? It seems 7spots goes in search of Thrillers but finds horror movies and gets frustrated.

Your effort is appreciated!
But what should I think when AERO is translating my posts?
Don't care... I appreciate your effort.

a non-horror thrilller is something like "Psycho" or "Jaws"
Dec 8, 2015, 2:06 PM

maybe James Bond, I guess.
is "thriller" different than "suspense" or "action"? Maybe not?
It's kind of like catagorizing music into "country" or "western".....

Not sure there is much difference between

"thriller" and "suspense". "Suspense" has a more calm, steady connotation, while "thriller" connotes more of a twist-and-turn kind of plot.
Action is different from both. Action is about loud noises, special effects, and stunts, not about plot.

Horror usually has a fantastical or supernatural element.

Thrillers are a little more real-world based.

no horror, but def keeps you on the egde.
Deeply mentally disturbed characters are a helpful element.

It was good enough I guess, but any show that actually ends instead of being cancelled outright is good enough for me these days

a tad first to make sure none of your parameters are broken. I also recommend being up late to watch it.

Horror tends to be about blood and monsters

meant to illicit fear in the audience. They also tend to be formulaic and often good vs evil (often literally).
Thriller is a broader category, evidenced by the tendency to have an adjective in front like (political or psychological) that categorizes it more narrowly, that tends to illicit excitement but can also focus on fear. Often thrillers ask more from an attention standpoint to get the full payoff than does horror.
