Think of classic thrillers as fully-formed worlds standing by to welcome you in and shake you up. And they know that done right, its payoff can haunt you for a lifetime. The best filmmakers know that for a thriller to work, it needs to be a visceral experience: something you feel as much as watch. You can feel its skittish energy coursing through your body, leaving your mouth a bit dryer and your palms a little clammier. The span takes in everything from slow-burn noodle-twisters like Mulholland Drive, political conspiracies like All the President’s Men, ’40s film noirs, heist movies, crime capers, psychological head scratchers and Hitchcock’s entire back catalogue.īut you always know you’re watching one. What makes a great thriller? It’s a deceptively broad genre that can be as hard to pin down as Harry Lime or Keyser Söze.
