I have the thriller genre and am completely stuck for ideas.
The genre guide by NYC says it should be fast, action-packed and plotty, but I was just working if anyone has had success with slower, more psychological type thrillers, or whether that would be classed as suspense and end up being disqualified? Thanks!

I think the judges are fairly lenient on things like that if it's a good script.

I think "Wait Until Dark" (1967) with Audrey Hepburn is a top-notch thriller. There's a lot of plot, but it's not fast and action-packed by any means. Write something like that and you should be fine.
