Thrillers aim to attract a wide audience but mainly appeal to teens and young adults, according to statistics. A graph shows that 38% of 16-18 year olds watch thrillers, making teens the primary target demographic. While thrillers can be viewed by most ages due to ratings, the conclusion is that they are best suited for teenagers, who have open minds and are not as easily bored or scared by the genres conventions, unlike younger children or older adults.
