Possible Fonts

Small details make a big difference when making a title for the film, when writing is slanted and has pointed edges this normally hints at a horror film, this may also be presented by colours of the text, which make all the difference when trying to establish what you want your audience to think, I'll provide some common examples that will present this way of thinking.

An example of horror:
 
Looking at this image it's easy to tell it's a horror because of the background being dark, and the text in general saying 'house of the dead' the way the font shows this is by making the edges of each letter sharp as though a point weapon, and the merge between red and black to present a type of blood in each of the letters presents this effect without the audience having to pay too much attention to this blend of colours. 
 
An example of a Thriller:
 
 
 
Thriller movies are different from horrors in the way they present their movies, it's a more mysterious, problem solving aspect and by doing this I believe by adding the perfect background the text almost becomes transparent, and example of this may be shown by the title for the movie 'Inception' a movie all about trying to deceive others through smart ways of manipulating the brain.
As shown by the image above, the background of the maze forms the words inception by leaving spaces in the middle. This is a smart way of making a title and just shows how complex the movie is going to be even before watching it.
