Thriller Genre

As I had chosen thriller as the genre of my opening of a film, I decided to get a defintion of thriller to make sure that I am creating a film to the correct genre.

Definition
A genuine, standalone thriller is a film that provide thrills and keeps the audience cliff-hanging at the "edge of their seats" as the plot builds towards a climax. The tension usually arises when the character(s) is placed in a menacing situation, a mystery, or a trap from which escaping seems impossible. Life is threatened, usually because the principal character is unsuspectingly or unknowingly involved in a dangerous or potentially deadly situation.

I got this information from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thriller_(genre)

After reading this information I now know what to included in my 2 minute intro film.
