Wikipedia

  1. Social thriller

    A social thriller is a film genre using elements of suspense and horror to augment instances of oppression in society. The genre gained attention in 2017 with the release of Jordan Peele's Get Out, a film highlighting occurrences of racial alienation, which veil a plot to abduct young African-Americans. Prior to Peele, other film actors, directors and critics had used the term to describe an emerging genre of cinema with examples from all over the globe. Many social thrillers focus on issues of race, class, gender, sexuality or nationhood, often within the format of genre films more broadly categorized as black comedy, film noir, drama, horror cinema, or Bollywood musicals, among others.
