Themes of thrillers

Themes

Different themes have different types of factors. For example crime thrillers often have kidnappings, heists, revenge, ransoms and heists. The main themes of a thriller are...
  • The main character faces death, either his/hers or someone else 
  • The villains must have more resources or are just cleverer or stronger than the main character 
  • The main story line must be some sort of mission or quest
  • The main plot line usually focuses on a mystery that needs to be solved
  • Its usually filmed in the view of the main character 
  • Every character must feel relate-able to, emotions wise.
  • Mystery thrillers are investigations, investigations could have multiple different themes



The girl with the dragon tattoo is a fantastic example of this because it has so many different themes murder,kidnapping, rape , torture and international heisting however it is all combined under an investigation theme, this creates suspense but also a factual interest within the story.
