Preferably decently paced movies not too slow, movies that starts with a mystery, slowly unravels and is completely unraveled at the end. After which u go ..ohh now everything falls in place
Like Sinister Hereditary Knives Out Girl with the dragon Tattoo Glass Onion Others
I like straightforward movies better as opposed to movies that leaves a lot of room for interpretation ( like kubrick/lynch movies)
I am a cinephile and have watched a lot of movies and maybe even the ones you'd bet I might not have watched. So I'd really appreciate if you suggested some movies that went under the radar

I've already seen all the known popular movies, please check my list before you make a suggestion. Let's see if you can outmatch my list.
Hello,
I am looking for some good, underrated or unknown gems in the "Detective Thrillers" category.
"Murder Mysteries" without detectives are also fine (like Rear Window).
Basically someone trying to solve a mystery (or murder).
Only movies, no series!
I already have Alfred Hitchcock's movies in my watchlist, no need to suggest them.
