Target Audience- crime

I think most crime films intended target audience is teenagers and adults, mainly men. The main conventions of the genre will appeal more to men than women because its stereotypical for men to enjoy action and violence. Although as there are lots of sub-genres in crime films there may be certain types that might appeal more to teenagers, women and men. For example I think that maybe crime thrillers that bordering on the horror genre may appeal more to a younger audience and women. But films such as Memento and Se7en target a much more mature audience. But in general I think most crime films intended target audience are 16+ and mainly male.
