Sub-genres are similar to hybrids. Often, a film genre has traits of other genres mixed in with them. For example, a rom com, a mixture of romance and comedy. Thrillers are often hybrids with other genres. Examples of these are:
- Action thrillers
- Crime thrillers
- Western thrillers
- Horror thrillers
- Film-noir thrillers
An example of a film in the horror-thriller sub genre is the film 'Memento'. This is because the beginning of the film opens with blood and is quite gory. Thrillers often don't have blood and gore, they are known for suspense which tends to be more subtle than horrors.
