The trailer will appeal to the audience beacause they may have never seen a film like this before and this may shock them and appeal to the audience making them want to watch the film as it would be a fun, new exciting experience, nothing like anything they would have seen before.

Thrillers are normally fast paced with alot of action and alot of suspense and possibly some twists on the story line for example in "North by North West" The lady kept changing from a kind of helper to an antagonist for a little while.
