Tldr: What's you favorite foreign psychological/suspense/thriller/mystery/mind bender?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Probably my favorite type of movies but I feel I've already watched most if not all of the American movies within this style worth watching, and so I'm curious about what's out there from the rest of the world.
I feel Japan might be a place to start, as their animation tend to lean into the mysterious, dreamy magical and strange but that's about all I can think of, and I don't know anything about Japanese movies outside animation, so it's just a shot in the dark really.
Though they might not fall completely into the mentioned styles, these nevertheless happen to be my favorites:
12 Monkeys
Lost Highway
Conspiracy Theory
Stir of Echoes
Coherence
The Long Kiss Goodnight
The Game
The 4th Floor
Half Light
So, obviously,12 Monkeys is more of a time travel sci-fi. Conspiracy Theory and The Long Kiss Goodnight are more action thrillers.The 4th Floor and Half Light are more on the horror side. Etc. Still these all have this suspense/thriller/mystery thing going that I most of all am looking for. Somewhat related I also enjoy the occasional fantasy/time travel drama, like say these:
Frequency
The Family Man
Midnight in Paris
So what's your favorite foreign mystery/thriller?
And based on this post, if anything, what would you recommend besides your own favorite?
