Thrillers have become all about technology and using technology. That seemed, to me, not so interesting.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Thrillers are an enormous amount of fun for filmmakers.
I've read one too many thrillers that had really horrible technology in them.
Anybody who sits down to write, and they think 'thriller,' maybe shouldn't be thinking that way. Maybe we should be thinking 'novel,' maybe 'thriller' way in the background, but that these are real people to whom things are happening. It just happens to be a hell of an exciting story.
I love thrillers, and I always have.
My favorite types of movies definitely aren't thrillers, but at the same time you can't deny the genius of Hitchcock's films.
It's not often a thriller keeps me wound up as well as 'Headhunters' did. I knew I was being manipulated and didn't care. It was a pleasure to see how well it was being done.
For me a thriller is a very carefully structured story.
With a thriller, you're going to have your red herrings, as different suspects are thrown up as possible culprits. You can only explore that for so long - if you do that more than a few times, it starts to get a little redundant.
I think I'll stick with psychological thrillers.
The thriller is not a recent invention. It probably goes back to the dawn of storytelling.
