Age Certificates

Because of some of the disturbing, often violent and frightening nature of the majority of thriller films, the age certificate of either 15 or 18 is given to prevent a younger audience from watching them. Films in the thriller genre also require concentration in order to understand the complex plot, another reason why thriller films are aimed at a more mature audience.
Certain features of a film distinguish it from having either a 15 or 18 certificate. Thriller films aimed at people aged 18 or over tend to include drug use, strong language, violent or sexual scenes as well as more horror film features such as gore.
