    Recommend me some good thrillers!

    Favorite movie genre for me is by far thrillers, preferably of the psychological variety, but in general any movie that's just a total mind-fuck. I'm itching for something new I haven't seen yet, and hoping you guys can recommend me a few Here's some that I've already seen:

    A Beautiful Mind
    American Psycho
    Black Swan
    Fight Club
    Inception
    Jacob's Ladder
    Lost Highway
    Memento
    Se7en
    Shutter Island
    Sunshine of the Eternal Mind
    The Game
    The Jacket
    The Machinist
    The Number 23
    The Others
    Vanilla Sky
    Pretty much everything from M. Knight Shyamalan

    I know that's most of the major titles, and I'm sure there's plenty more out there, so help me out!

    Pandorum is good if you like sci-fi thrillers
    Sunshine is also a neat sci-fi thriller
    I heard Devil is good, that ones by M. night shamallama.
    The Orphanage. movies in spanish though.
    Skeleton Key is interesting.
    The Omen
    And if you like Quarantine, check out [REC] and [REC] 2. Quarantine is the americanized version of those. Both are in spanish.

    those movies aren't mindfucks but I think you'd enjoy em.

    So many movies could be categorized incorrectly. I may think a movie would be a drama while someone else would classify it as a thriller or suspense. Bounce around this link and check out the timelines and sub-genres of thrillers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thriller_%28genre%29

    Though not a psychological thriller, The Fugitive is a classic thriller. Just a solid movie with great performances from Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones.

    I heard Devil is good
    it was pretty good. pretty obvious "twist" is obvious pretty much from the start though.

    are you asking for a thriller or just a movie, because i've never heard anyone classify eternal sunshine of the spotless mind as a thriller, or a beautiful mind

    Really though, just check out all of Hitchcocks work. He damn near created the psychological thriller genre.

    Oooo, The Prestige is a good one. So is The Illusionist.

    If you're into anime movies, you should check out Perfect Blue. That's a good mindfuck. Paprika is amazing as well.
