Within the thriller genre, there are many types of sub-genres, such as action or horror thriller, as there are a wide range of different type of thrillers that you can watch.
For example:
Action thriller - This is where the work often features a race against the clock, contains lots of violence with lots of graphical features, and an obvious antagonist. These films usually contain large amounts of guns, explosions, and large elaborate set pieces for the action to take place.
Crime thriller - This particular genre is a combined type of both crime films and thrillers that offers a suspenseful account of a successful or failed crime . These films often focus on the criminal(s) rather than a policeman. Crime thrillers usually emphasize action over psychological aspects, and mostly focus on just the action and the crime.
Drama thriller - In which the story generally consists of the elements of a thriller and drama film. These films are usually slower paced and not as fastly edited and involves a great deal of character development along with plot twists.
Psychological thriller - In which (until the often violent resolution) the conflict between the main characters is mental and emotional, rather than physical. Such as "The Ring."
Spy thriller (also a subgenre of spy fiction) - In which the hero is generally a government agent who must take violent action against agents of a rival government or (in recent years) terrorists. This type of film again, is usually more fast paced.
Supernatural thriller - In which the conflict is between main characters, usually one of which has supernatural powers.
