What is a genre, sub-genre and hybrid genre?
In the film industry, genre is a way of categorising a media text.
A sub-genre is a genre such as a disaster genre which is specific to the type of movie, within the film itself.
A hybrid genre is a combination of two genres in one film, such as an action-thriller.
Films that may be in a specific genre may share the fact that they all may make you laugh such as in comedy films. Whereas in a thriller films, they build tension and will keep you gripped. On the other hand, horror films may make you scared and scream.
