50 Best Thrillers That Will Keep You at the Edge of Your Seat

Thrillers are a popular movie genre focused on exciting and surprising its viewers. They attempt to manipulate viewers by leaving red herrings, introducing sudden plot twists, and utilizing dramatic irony. They are often fast-paced but sometimes utilize a slower pace to build suspense, particularly in pivotal scenes. The thriller often co-exists with other genres, such as Mystery, Crime, Action, and Horror, but may also exist independently. Alfred Hitchcock is widely considered to be the Master of Suspense and is sometimes credited with popularizing the genre.
