Psychological thrillers are more demanding and have deeper meanings, so their target audience is older, between 25-45 years old. The document also states that the target audience for its own thriller is 15+ males and females, and it will likely receive a 12/15 rating due to non-graphic violence, psychology and death themes. It provides examples of popular psychological thrillers like Inception and Pulp Fiction.
