Products in the media can be put into genre and sub-genre. The word 'genre' means a 'class' or 'type'. Genres of media appear within film and television such as a 'comedy' film or 'romantic comedy' film.
The thriller genre has a wide variety of themes. This means that sometimes two genres can combine together. For example, more recent films can be psychological thrillers, action thrillers, and crime thrillers. Examples of an action thriller would be 'The Bourne Identity' or 'Inception' and examples of crime thriller would be 'Pulp fiction' or 'Se7en'
A hybrid is different to a subgenre because a hybrid is three or more genres together, as a subgenre is only two. An example of a hybrid would be the horror comedy action film of 'Shawn of the Dead'
Normal thrillers differ from psychological or political thrillers, for example, because psychological thrillers are more about mental health and psychology whereas political thrillers are about politics. The subgenre makes the thriller more specific rather than just having a normal thriller.
