3.  This graph shows
that the majority of
people prefer action
thriller over the
others. This is

conventions in them
are what appeal to
males the most.

4.  This tells us that
suspense is what
people enjoy most in
thriller films. This
could be because
people like to not
know what is going
to happen. They like
the jump scares and
the build up to
something bad that
is going to happen.

5.  People like thriller
films with a lot of
action and suspense.
This is because
people like to be
entertained whilst
they’re watching the
film, people don’t
like films that bore
them or have nothing
happen for a long
time.

6.  There is a high
percentage of people
that prefer a female
protagonist over a
male one. This could
be because seeing a
male protagonist if
typical in most films,
so when you see a
female doing what
men are portrayed to
usually do, it makes
the film a lot better.

7.  From the evidence in the
graph we can see that
people watch thriller films
with the friends the most.
Going to the cinema with
friends is more enjoyable
than going with your family
or partner because you all
would have similar interests
if you go as a group. When
you do go as a group, you
tend to go with 3 friends
and over, which makes the
experience a lot more fun
for people.

8.  This questions shows
that people like thriller
films set in the city the
most. This could be
because when the
action happens in the
city, there are more
people around which
means they are more
likely to get caught up
in it. If it is set in a
small village there is
only so much that can
happen compared to in
a city which is massive.
