I love suspenseful movies where I am on the edge of my seat. I like mind bending movies too where I think about the movie even after it's over. I want to see some more mysteries too, since during the movie you can try to put the clues together and figure out what's going on. Just so you know what kind of movies I've watched, here is a list:

Inception, Shutter Island, Interstellar, The Prestige, The Departed, The Game, The Gift, Memento, Enemy, Prisoners, Arrival, Annihilation, Gone Girl, Moon, Source Code, Zodiac, Nightcrawler, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, LA Confidential, Predestination, Seven, Fight Club, Green Room, Coherence, The Invitation, Triangle, No Country for Old Men, Whiplash, Gone Baby Gone, Buried, 10 Cloverfield Lane, Wind River, Blue Ruin, Resolution, and The Endless.

I know that's a huge list, but if you guys could just take a quick glance at it and see what my cup of tea is, maybe you can help me. If it helps, I like directors like Christopher Nolan, David Fincher, Denis Villeneuve, and Martin Scorsese. Leave me suggestions, thanks!

I love watching mystery. I have watched some and I want to see some more but there's only one condition- "It shouldn't be a slow burner (unless it's really really good)" . Language isn't the problem as long as it's good.

I have already seen some famous ones which I really liked Gone girl, memories of murder, 12 angry man, Silence of the lambs, Zodiac, seven, I saw the devil, primal fear, the usual suspect, the invisible guest etc.

In shows I have already watched Dexter, and then there were none, Mouse, True detective, The wire, the blacklist, flower of evil, The mentalist etc.

I want something where the protagonist and antagonists are equally smart and cunning. Please suggest me some good ones. If it's a good murder mystery then it would be best.

P.S. - You can suggest me some anime too if any fight the criteria.

Movies should be post 1995 and should be like viewer didn't expect or peidict that what will happen next. Or any TV series recommendations will also be appreciated

Looking for lists, foreign, under-appreciated and obscure flicks

More movies I've seen that I've forgotten to add to my list

Hello,

I am currently doing a ton of data cleaning (that will take days) and and a a result, I am watching mystery films in the background (as the current theme). While I have seen plenty of classics, I was hoping if anyone can recommend some good modern mystery films (1970s and up). Some of my favourite modern mystery films are:

1. Brick

2. Mystic River

3. Changeling

4. Zodiac

5. Seven

6. The Usual Suspects

7. Chinatown

8. Blade Runner

9. Dark City

10. Prisoners

11. Identity

Thank you!

My Dog and I are a pair of Couch detectives and we love a good mystery. Things like Knives out, Gone Girl, Disappearance at Clifton Hill, Searching, CloveHitch Killer,The Killing of a Sacred Deer, Prisoners etc. currently watching the True Detective series until I get a good recommendation!!

Recommend me the best mystery/suspense movie.

If u had to name one (and only) one movie that has the best plot twist ever, which would it be?

I wanna watch something that keeps me at the edge of my seat and blows me away by some kind of great reveal at the end.

Thanks in advance for the recommendations

I really like watching mystery media, games, books, movies, all of it. I quite like it as the cast of characters shrinks as well.

As far as mystery movies I’ve watched (not many), they are:

• Clue

• Knives Out

• The Thing (1982)

I’m not much a movie person, but I would like to watch more!

My partner and I just watched Trap (2024) and we were so disappointed 😪

So now we're looking for movies to watch in a similar genre and that's ACTUALLY GOOD.

Any (Pyschological) Thrillers/Mystery/Crime movie recommendations would do but hopefully, of course.... well-written....

TIA.

Lookin for a movies like I see you, The Lighthouse, Uncut Gems, Hereditary, Green Room, Under the Silver Lake, Come to Daddy, it follows, and Summer of 84.

I like watching movies without knowing anything about it. These movies were intense and had me guessing what will happen next. I rate each of these a 10/10.

Would appreciate any recommendations

Can anyone recommend a good suspense thriller or action movie from the last 5-6 years?

Seen all the Bonds, Mission Impossibles, Raids, IP Man’s, Raging Fire, John Wicks, Upgrade, Bournes etc.

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for some really solid recent movies (ideally from 2020 onwards) in the thriller, mystery, espionage, action, or fast-paced genres. I’m in the mood for gripping films with smart plots, psychological twists, tense action, or high-stakes espionage. Whether it’s a slow-burn thriller or something more adrenaline-fueled, Preferably fast paced but I’m open to both — as long as it’s well-crafted and keeps me hooked from start to finish.

I especially love movies with strong suspense, sharp pacing, and stories that keep you guessing. Bonus points if it’s something a little underrated or off the mainstream radar.

For reference, here are a few movies I’ve really enjoyed in this space: • Prisoners • The Night House • Wind River • Gone Girl • The Invisible Man (2020) • Sicario • Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy • Zero Dark Thirty • No Time to Die

Also open to international films if they bring strong suspense, action, or intrigue.

What are some of the best recent movies you’ve seen in these genres? Would love to hear your recommendations — thanks in advance!

It could really be any genre as long as mystery and thriller is involved. Id also like to say my favorite settings when it comes to these stories are somewhere in space, in a military setting or underwater (I’ve never been huge on the idea of normal underwater shark types of stuff, if possible I’d like some sort of Atlantis type thing or where they explore a structure or a ship underwater) could be horror or not it doesn’t matter as long as it’s thrilling. I’ve never been a big movie guy so the only mystery thriller movies ive watched that I can think of are Pandorum, Seven, bone tomahawk and the abyss and I loved pandorum a lot

Edit: forgot to say that it does NOT have to be specifically underwater or space movies in open to anything

Hey fellow movie lovers! I’m in the mood for a mind-blowing suspense thriller — the kind that keeps you guessing, makes your jaw drop, and sticks with you for days. I’m talking about movies like Prisoners, Se7en, Gone Girl, or The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo — anything that blends mystery, intensity, and atmosphere. I love plot twists, dark tones, and characters pushed to the edge. I’m okay with slow burns too, as long as the payoff is worth it.

So what’s your all-time favorite suspense thriller that you think everyone needs to watch at least once? It can be a hidden gem, a foreign film, or even something recent that flew under the radar. Bonus points if it left you staring at the screen in stunned silence during the credits. Would love to hear your top picks!

I’m in the mood for a gripping suspense or psychological thriller — something with a strong build-up and a twist that completely catches you off guard.

I’m open to international films too, as long as they have English subtitles.

I have access to Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+ Hotstar, so suggestions available on any of these platforms would be perfect.

Looking for underrated picks, hidden gems, or anything that left you thinking about it long after it ended.

Thanks in advance!

As the title says recommend me a movie/movies based on movies I liked those would be: Prisoners which I watched yesterday it was great, fight club, shutter island, se7en, from different genres Interstellar, green mile... these would be my best maybe I forgot some.
