3. The final countdown (1980) A science fiction thriller concerned with aspects of time travel is, although dissimilar in nature to our thriller in terms of the possibility of occurring, defined under the same genre as our thriller would come under Set in both present day and the past the plot doesn’t use the same linear structure as our thriller used.
