He murders Dickie’s best friend Freddie to cover up this crime, and he gaslights Dickie’s suspicious fiance Marge-bad behavior indeed. Tom Ripley murders his vivacious new friend Dickie and assumes his identity, and his wealth.
Ripley by Patricia Hightower comes to mind. Then there are thrillers where bad behavior occurs without overt consequences. “I’m scared Jimmy, and I don’t want to lose my family.” (Dan Gallagher from Fatal Attraction). The moral lesson is clear: If you have sex outside of marriage, you jeopardize your entire family. She brings her rage to his front door, and then into his home when she boils the family’s pet rabbit on their stove. After a family man, Dan Gallagher, engages in a brief extramarital affair, the woman he sleeps becomes obsessed with revenge. It’s the “scare ‘em straight” teaching method.Ĭonsider the Fatal Attraction screenplay by James Dearden.
A character makes a crucial mistake or commits a crime and the result is a shocking, over-the-top, often violent or deadly outcome. Bad behavior shapes the heart of many popular thrillers. This is what I call the morality of immorality. How? By displaying catastrophic consequences for “bad” behavior. It’s a race to uncover the truth before the killer strikes again.Where fiction draws wavy lines toward “morally-correct” conclusions, thrillers fling straight and piercing arrows into the heart of morality itself. But when a video prank from the party goes viral and a body is discovered at the beach, Jake and Jessica find themselves at the centre of a national media storm and a police investigation. At least that’s what Jake Healy tells his girlfriend Jessica Sanchez. Who’s to blame? Tegan Sheffield’s annual end-of-summer beach party is the only way to start their senior year.
