The Covenant















The subgenre in thriller that inspires me is Psychological Thriller because its really suspenseful and interesting. I think a Psychological thriller needs to be long because it can sometimes be confusing so it needs to take time to develop but when i watch a PT movie at the end of the movie the plot is supposedly solved but it still leaves me feeling as though the story has not completely finished yet like something more needs to happen so it leaves me thinking about it. I think that is what makes a good Psychological Thriller making the audience still think about it.
