Bella Thorne graduates to directing non-porn
I'll give her credit for hustle. There aren't many 22-year-old directors out there, least of all female. But what is an elevated thriller?

What the hell is an "elevated thriller"? I guess that means "non-erotic thriller".

I've heard of "elevated horror" and while I get the derision that sparks, I also see a distinction between movies like Hereditary, Midsommer and Us vs for example, Hostel, Saw and I Spit on Your Grave.
Still I have never heard that terminology in the Thriller genre before.

She is fucking cray. Her appearance on Stern was one of the most uncomfortable interviews I've ever sat through. I don't think Howard was prepared for that and seemed to be struggling with her a few times.

Re: Bella Thorne graduates to directing non-porn
I'd imagine that it's a thriller that's more accolade-minded or character-oriented with an overarching theme/exploration, similar to the way The Witch, Hereditary, The Babadook, etc are often referred to as "elevated horror" (although not without controversy). Get Out could be regarded as an elevated thriller, although is also referred to as elevated horror.
The rest of us are just impressed that it’s not porn and she hasn’t OD’d yet....yet.

I misread the title. I thought she was directing another porn. Pass.
