Hey,

I am obsessed with psychological thriller films that really have you gripped and on the edge of your seat - I lose concentration unless they're this way 😂 I'm treating myself to a takeaway tomorrow night and want an AMAZING film to accompany it.

Please hit me with your best recommendations.

Films I've loved recently:

  • Taken
  • What Happened to Monday
  • The Vanished

Etc etc.

Thanks all! Xx

Calibre

set in Scotland - sooo good (Netflix)

TanteRose · 17/02/2021 04:59

1922 is also very good

I like Devils Advocate and Knowing.

They are a bit sci fi but keep you guessing.

@Ijustknowitstimetogo

Donnie Darko Pan's Labyrinth (Disturbing and upsetting) Angel Heart (bit violent; shocker)
Angel Heart is my all time favourite film! Never seen it come up in these threads before.

The machinist
Kaleidoscope

Get Out is a really good film

The original The Vanishing (it’s a Dutch film) very disturbing and a simple believable plot

ShirleyGhostmansDog · 17/02/2021 08:10

Midsommer

Double Indemnity.
Strangers on a Train.
Dial m for Murder.
Rear Window.
The one with Glenn Close and Michael Douglas (and the bunny).

I prefer the old ones.

Unhinged with Russell Crowe - I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. It’s on Amazon Prime but costs an extra £3.49

Oh also Get Duked! (Amazon) was an unexpected bit of fun as well as being quite tense.

@50shadesoflunacy

I also like Breakdown. And v old, but brilliant: Jagged Edge.
1985 is 'v old'? How old are you? 12?

Girl on the train (Emily Blunt)

Piffle11 · 17/02/2021 19:46

Primal Fear.

50shadesoflunacy · 17/02/2021 22:48

Ha Sandman I meant in comparison to today's films Grin

LIamaDelRey · 20/02/2021 02:28

Ooh......behind her eyes - #1 series on netflix atm - it is very good OP and fits the bill (psychological drama)
