Thriller and Chick flick genre

Thriller films are types of films known to promote intense excitement, suspense and tension. A thriller film pursues a single minded goal to provide thrills and to keep the viewer cliffhanging as the plot builds towards a climax.
The tension ususally arises when the main character is placed in a menacing situation or mystery, or an escape or dangerous mission from which escape seems impossible.Plots of thrillers involve characters which come into conflict with each other-the menace is sometimes abstract ot shadowy.
Within the genre thriller there are many different types for example, suspense thrillers(Taken),sci-fi thrillers(Alien), crime-caper thrillers(The french connection), western thrillers(High noon), film-noir thrillers(Double indemnity) and romantic comedy thrillers(Safety Last).

Most chick flick films are light hearted and comical, but sometimes some suspense films fall under this genre for example, What lies beneath.
