Thriller Films / TV Drama's I have seen

Spooks -
A British television drama, consisting of 10 series, aired on BBC One. Kudos and BBC made it clear that series 10 was going to be the last series. The final episode ended on the 23rd October.

The Experiment -
The Experiment is a film about Phillip Zimarbo's research into to psychology. Research was conducted to test how people reacted to being assigned to certain roles, in this case Guards and Prisoners. This is an incredibly important piece of psychological research, and has come under a lot of criticism. This is my favourite film ever; I’m taking psychology for A-Level and find this film incredibly interesting.

The Bourne Trilogy -
The Bourne films are a series of dramatic films based on a character played by Jason Bourne, played by Matt Damon. The trilogy included, The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy and The Bourne Ultimatum.

X-Files -
X-Files has elements of the thriller genre, but is mostly known as science fiction film. It follows the stories of FBI agents, Fox Mulder and Dana Scully, as they investigate X-File cases, involving paranormal phenomenon’s. X-files contains lements of Thriller but is generally seen as a science fiction movie.

  1. The only film which is inappropriate is "I, Robot".
    Re The X-files, a splendid series but you'd have to identify a conspiracy episode which didn't involve weird creatures, but instead focused on noir lighting, an enclosed space, the clips which feature The Smoking Man would be useful.
