Thrillers have always been a popular movie genre. However, as you can see from the graph above, it doesn't hold a large percentage of the market share.
'Get Out' was a hugely popular film made in 2017. It showed that the thriller genre is far from dead, especially after winning the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay.
It is also the highest-grossing original debut ever, as well as being the third highest grossing R-rated horror film ever.

The table above shows budget and profits of the top films produced by Blumhouse Productions. It shows that Get Out, although not having the highest budget, but made the most at the box office and made the most profit.
A thriller/suspense that didn't make as much as 'Get Out' was 'The Snowman'. Produced by Universal Studios, it made a little over $6.5 million at the box office, compared to its $35 million budget. This demonstrates some of the aspects needed in order to make a thriller successful.
Get Out was full of suspense, appealing to audiences worldwide which contributed to its success. The Snowman, however, had very little of any of these aspects and performed very poorly, ensuring that it wouldn't be successful at all
