Thriller vs. Horror

Horror:
Young cast
Violence (blood and guts)
Focus of the narrative is the violence
multiple victims
lead 'victim' often becomes detective
suburban setting
adults absent, or not supportive

Thriller:
Mature cast, often highly regarded, expensive actors.
Focuses on who did it? why & how?
Often detective is the lead
Victim is not always known to the audiences.
