I agree! But since you dropped the G word, I have to say that I didn't come up with it. I'm not 100% sure, but I think I got it from the Story Grid, a book for novelists that puts a lot of emphasis on knowing what genre you're working in.

I pitched my current WIP to the Songwriter today, and he thinks it may be a thriller, rather than a horror movie. So many elements are common to both (tension, madness, dead bodies, etc etc), so tell me #ScriptSky - what's your personal dividing line between thriller and horror? #ScriptSky+

Oooo, I love this question. The way that I differentiate between the two is that in a thriller the stakes are life and death, and in a horror the stakes escalate to "a fate worse than death".
