First sub-genre that I will analyse is action thriller. It can have certain features such as a race against time, violence, fighting and an obvious antagonist. The film would most probably include things such as guns, explosions, car races and other related things. E.g: The Bourne Identity/Supremacy/Ultimatum.
Second example, The Crime thriller sub-genre, is a fusion of both crime films and thriller films, and it offers a suspenseful or mysterious account of a crime - successful or failed. This type of thriller usually focus on the criminal-characters, rather than the law enforcers. Crime thrillers are most likely to emphasize the action taking place over the emotional or psychological thoughts/aspects. E.g: The Recruit.
In a Drama thriller, the film would normally consist of drama aspects mixed with the thriller aspects. The film is usually more slow paced, and involves the characters developing emotionally, psychologically and sometimes physically. This usually coincides with the plot, and with its twists and turns. E.g: The Box.
Psychological thriller, a normal conflict between main characters leading to an often violent resolution, is another sub-genre. The conflict between the characters is usually mental and emotional, rather than physical. The conflict could even be something that in real life, wouldn't be scientifically possible. This can include movies to the likes of and including "Memento".
Supernatural thriller, another sub genre, includes conflicts between some main characters. Usually one, both or all of them has super-powers, and may be considered a SuperHero or a Villain. E.g: "The Awakening".
