The target audience depends on the sub-genre of the thriller and also the topics in which it contains.
For example a thriller such as 'No Country for Old Men', which contain more action and violence, seem to have a more popular audience of young males. This is becuase the fast paced nature of these films appeals more to male viewers.
Another example is thrillers that can also be categorized with horror such as 'Hide and Seek', these seem to appeal to young females rather than males. This could be because horror films normally target young women, therefore women would be able to grab their attention.
There are many ways in which we can identfy our target audience. Such as carrying out an interview with a range of people, or setting up a survey for people to fill out, and finding out what their favourite thriller and what, in their opinion, makes a thriller good.
Furthermore, another method could be carrying out an online survey also asking various questions to establish what different people think about different thrillers. This could be posted onto facebook, which would offer a variety of answers from our family and friends.
