Genre Research - Locations

Genre: Psychological Thriller
Main-Genre: Thriller
Sub genre: Psychological

The typical locations that you would see in a Psychological Thriller:

City
Asylum
Town
Village
Prison

Out of all of these, the majority takes place in the City. This is because most of the problems that Psychological Films choose to tackle take place in an urban environment. An example of a film which does NOT take place in one of these 5 popular locations is the film called "The Wicker Man". 'The Wicker Man' is an Occult Horror/Psychological Thriller, taking place in a remote location in a fairly remote village.


We are aware that the locations present in our film are quite different from the majority of Psychological Thrillers. The only thing that is the same as most is that it takes place in a city.

Below is an extreme example of an Asylum.
