100 Best Psychological Thrillers Movies To Watch (List)



In my psychological thrillers movies I always try to put that little bit more, do not limit myself to play with the mystery.

Because what I love (both in books and in the movie thriller ) that is something special . The one key that makes you want to re-read the book, or relate to the movie, to find out what has not yet been discovered. To enjoy the mystery in mystery .

In this top best post, therefore, I present a list of psychological thriller movies that is worth reviewing again. And, for each of them, instead of the usual "plot more review," I am giving you an alternative reading . I'll show you the hidden side that maybe you never noticed. The mystery in the mystery , of course .

An item reserved only for true lovers of the thriller , in fact.

You are among those? You will come to an end?


What a wonderful invention, the thriller , wow! The psychological thriller , then, I love them. So much paper as the cinema. And many times, especially in the evenings of winter, I said to myself: "I would like to see a good psychological thriller, tonight, what should I choose?".

And so, after much investigation, I managed to compile a list of films that I consider  the best, ever. And you offer them, so that you do not find yourself in some dreary winter evening, to bring out my own question.;

I will start from Identity to get to Cape Fear – 1962 , but are not listed in order of rating. I want to clarify. I love them all equally. Other small clarification: if you follow me for a while ', you know that I am tired of the various psychological thriller that aim to analyze the mind of mad serial killer . For this reason I have avoided inserting Seven , Silence of the Lambs and their imitators
