The most favorite character in a thriller is the antagonists. this means in my thriller we need to make the antagonist live up to the typical thriller antagonist in order to connect with the audience.
The same amount of people loved action and psychological as a sub-genre. From this information I can gather that people enjoy the action within a thriller. So if I apply action then it will have a connection to the audience members.
