Crime thrillers are seemed to be darker than a crime film due to the fact that it has to involve codes and conventions of a thriller as well as a crime. This particular genre is a hybrid type of both crime films and thrillers that offers a suspenseful account of a successful or failed crime or crimes. These films often focus on the criminal rather than a policeman. Crime thrillers usually emphasize action over psychological aspects. Central topics of these films include serial killers/murders, robberies, chases, shootouts, heists and double-crosses.For example se7en and The departed.
Sub-Genre - Action Thriller
Action thrillers usually feature guns; explosions and set pieces. They usually feature a race against the clock, lots of violence and a clear evil antagonist.
These films may include some elements of crime and or mystery films; they are not as in focus as the action.
An example of a action thriller is Die hard or the Bourne ultimatum.
