Why Do People Watch Psychological Thrillers?

Why Do People Watch Psychological Thrillers? 


 People watch psychological thrillers for different reasons. After psychological research, researchers found a strong link between the desire to watch suspenseful and scary films or entertainment, and the viewers need for physical arousal and excitement.

Meaning we like to watch these movies for the thrill of it. 'People like to be scared, when they feel safe' - Alfred Hitchcock This is the idea that we enjoy watching it, as we are not the ones living it.

 Some people may watch it to revisit a trauma when younger, instead of having to actually re-live it. Or others may choose to watch to to help express/release their own aggressive and violent thoughts.

 Researchers at Kings College in London Found that the key to having a successful scary movie it to have the balance between the horror/suspense and gore, an example of this would be jaws.

Target Audience

Our target audience  are '15+' male and female who enjoys psychological thrillers. the movie will contain minor violence, death and a disturbed, psycho charter, hence why were to making it an '18' rated movie because the content is not overly explicit.


Posible distrubuter- Momemtum

Using the research I have conducted, and looking into momentum,  we taught it'll be a good idea to use them for our film distributor, seeing that they've distributed a lot of thriller movies and well known for it.
