Hybrid Genres

The hybrid genre in the film industry refers to the aspect of blending several movie genres into one film such as comedy and horror. There are many movies that fall under this category such us the fight club? starring Brad Pitt.

Sometimes a film is made so that it fits into two different genres, this is called a "Hybrid Genre". Hybrids are good for film makers because it means they can make their film seem more attractive to viewers that enjoy films from both of the chosen genres, for example "Love Actually" is a Romantic Comedy and this means that people that enjoy funny films and people that enjoy films about romance may like the themes conveyed by this title.

Another example of a film that attracts two different audiences is Twilight. This could be seen as as a good film to watch if the person is into fantasy films and also if the person is into romantic films.

Films that are considered as being hybrid genres and also often seen as having complicated storylines
