Frequently Asked Questions
No, the purpose of us answering these questions is nothing serious. They are just for the purpose of fun and adding some more thrilling characters to the excerpt.
1. Are Thriller & Horror The Same?
Ans. Now listen!
Horror can be a thriller, but not all thrillers are a horror. For cinephiles, Friday movie nights are holy. We watch them specifically to get a certain kind of feel, and we wouldn’t want to ruin it by getting the wrong emotion itched.
This is why let us be very clear about the difference between horror and thriller.
The purpose of a horror movie is to get your adrenaline pumped throughout by horrifying you with terrifying plots and jumpscares. Probably something that will keep you up all night.
A thriller, on the other hand, is supposed to thrill you. This means to keep you biting your nails throughout the movie, heartbeat rising and goosebumps.
Hopefully, we were able to clear out the difference between the two.
2. Can A Thriller Be Scary?
Ans. Technically a thriller should be scarier than a horror since it delves into the realism of life and not the paranormal, whose existence is still questionable.
Especially if you are watching a psychological thriller murder mystery like Psycho, you should be more scared since this is something very well that happens in real life.
