Potential Sub-Genre?!

As a Potential sub-genre for our opening sequence, we decided to look further into the Psychological Thriller Genre.Psychological is one of the more hybrid sub-genres as it often incorporates elements from the Drama genre, the Mystery genre and occasionally the Horror genre, which also go particularly well with some psychological horrors.

Pyschological Thrillers focus on the elements that are related to the mind they are of mental rather than physical nature. Sometimes in movies the suspense comes from within one solitary character where characters must resolve conflicts and confusions with their own minds. It is mostly an effort to understanding something that has happened to them.
This genre focuses very much on the character rather than the plot like a traditional thriller. It is the more prefered Thriller sub-genre as it can involve the viewers, this is because the plot and characters in the performance are usually the key to figuring out what the characters are battling against.

We think that this would make a good sub-genre to choose for our opening sequence as it is a very engaging genre and really makes us, the viewers, think about what could be happening in the plot. It is also a very popular genre so people would be quite intrested in seeing it. Especially if it is a controversal theme or subject matter!
