Due to a lot of thinking I have decided to tweak my idea more towards the genre of a Thriller. After watching some thriller films I have decided to make the change of genres to a thriller.

Thrillers are full of conflict, tension, suspense, unexpected twists and high stakes. Conventions of a Thriller: Clearly defined hero, villain and victim.
