I have done some research on a sub-genre in thrillers called spy thrillers. when researching this, a film cropped up several times. The film is called Dr. No and was the first of the famous 'James Bond' films, which are still being made today. In the film James Bond is a secret agent for the British Government and has to save the world in an action packed adventure.
A rough outline of the target audience of the James Bond films, and other thrillers, is 16-30 and appeals to both sex's.
'They appeal because they are action-packed, have fantastic special effects and gadgetry, secrecy, danger and have a variety of exotic locations.'
wayland publishers (1991). Adventure Films. london: wayland publishers limited. p18-19.
This is saying that people will want to see a spy thriller because it will have a lot of adreneline and can make your heart race.
A general story line for a spy thriller is the hero has to try and kill and unseen enemy before they kill him.
