Don't forget Cujo.
LOL. I need that poster in my dog room for when my pug decides she wants breakfast at 4am.

The Strangers is probably the last thriller that really scared me. All alone in the house at 3am with my headphones on and the sound cranked up. When the loud bashing on the door happened I thought it was my front door right behind me and almost poopied my pantalones.



In no particular order:

The Game
Jacobs Ladder
Angel Heart
Seven
Usual Suspects
The Others
Mothman Prophecies
Great list!!!



Definitely Orphan (2009). Honestly, when I saw it first time I was having difficulties to fall asleep for another week. I was seeing that little psycho underneath of my bed, behind the door, in my closet, everywhere. Well that was something

oh. I havent seen Orphan but a little psycho under my bed would probably freak me out.

Thumbs up to Lil Dev's Jacob's Ladder. I love that movie.

Shutter Island is a great movie, one of those I can watch a couple of times each year, Fight Club is just revolutionary and it still holds up, Memento groundbreaking, The Usual Suspect is a remarkable film but I can't decide if the logic and twists actually holds up to closer scrutiny or not - without thinking too much it's awesome.
though I really like Shutter Island [made me enjoy DiCaprio as an actor] I can't shake this idea that it's basically "the 9th configuration" but with the lead as a detective.

You've got some interesting suggestions here, great list! A couple of them I haven't seen, I will check them out!

Memories of Murder (2003) - Bong Joon-ho



I really loved Midnight Special, but as a previous member posted, too many to choose from. The Others, The Boy (2015, Macniell) The Signal and oh so many more!

I like a thriller with a good twist at the end, one that you really don't see coming, although I have read posts on IMDb with people claiming they knew exactly what was going to happen 10 minutes in, not sure whether to believe that or not, anyway...I'm rambling, that's a subject for another post.

Back on topic, I guess if I had to choose ONE thriller it would have to be something like The Others or The Signal, but that's two isn't it lol



Has anyone seen ELLE, the thriller from 2016? Got great reviews and might watch it tonight!
