'Cuz This Is Thriller

Best Movies

Here is a&nbsp;list of the best psychological thrillers of all time, ranked by fans who may or may not be trying to mess with your head! Though a variety of definitions for the &quot;psychological thriller&quot; genre have been offered, there is no universally accepted set of guidelines. In general, good psychological thrillers integrate personal character elements into <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/mystery-movies-and-films/reference " target="_blank">mystery</a> and <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/list-of-all-suspense-movies/reference " target="_blank">suspense films</a>, essentially toeing the line between a dramatic character study and the sort of plot structure you&#39;d expect from a detective movie. With that in mind, what do you think are the best psychological thriller movies Hollywood has to offer? Could some even be considered the best thriller movies ever?

Many of the top psychological thrillers resemble traditional thrillers or suspense films, only with a personal, internal antagonist rather than a traditional <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-movie-villains-of-all-time" target="_blank">movie villain</a>. (For example, Repulsion or The Conversation, in which the plot is moved forward by the main character&#39;s growing paranoia and madness.) In many thrilling films of this type, the solution to the main character&#39;s conflict comes in the form of altering their perspective or discovering some buried truth about themselves and their past, rather than winning a fight or battling an opponent.

Many psychological thrillers play around with the main character&#39;s back story, or make use of an unreliable narrator. Films like Christopher Nolan&#39;s Memento present the audience with one perspective on the story, and then generate suspense by showing the ways in which &quot;reality&quot; contrasts to this perspective. (This sometimes, but not always, results in a &quot;twist&quot; or surprise ending based on the difference between the main character&#39;s perception and that of outside observers). Several Alfred Hitchcock movies&nbsp;utilize this technique, particularly movies like Spellbound and Marnie, in which the story concerns a character becoming mentally well after years of madness and confusion. Several of these films are critically acclaimed psychological thrillers.

This list contains the best thriller movies of all time. It is open and vote ranked, so be sure to vote for your favorites and add any other movies that may be missing at the bottom of the page.

Teen Movies

Teen movies are a longtime staple of many viewers&#39; cinematic diet, but the best new <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-teen-movies-of-all-time/all-genre-movies-lists" target="_blank">teen films</a> really raise the bar. The genre first gained a measure of&nbsp;popularity in the early 1980s, with a string of raunchy <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-teen-comedy-movies/ranker-film" target="_blank">teen comedies</a>, many of which centered around teenagers going on spring break or having some other kind of escapade. Hardbodies and Porky&#39;s&nbsp;are just two examples from that era.&nbsp;These&nbsp;were&nbsp;exploitation flicks, usually telling stories about young men looking to &quot;get lucky&quot; with their beautiful classmates. John Hughes turned the tide with a string of smart, sensitive teen stories that began with 1984&#39;s Sixteen Candles and also included The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller&#39;s Day Off, Pretty in Pink, and Some Kind of Wonderful. Suddenly, it was proven that real teenagers didn&#39;t want to see an exaggerated version of themselves; they wanted honest stories they could relate to.

The best new teen films carry on that tradition, and even expand it. Current movies like The Edge of Seventeen, Eighth Grade, and Love, Simon all speak to what it&#39;s like to be an adolescent in modern times. Of course, there are genre films centered around -- and geared toward -- teens, as well. Some of them manage to offer insights, despite telling stories steeped in fantasy.&nbsp;

Modern science fiction movies provide&nbsp;audiences with a wide range of subject matter. The genre offers a lot of flexibility, as it is capable of telling stories set on Earth or in outer space. Often times, the two are combined, with aliens visiting our planet&nbsp;or by having&nbsp;earthlings journey to another planet. Audiences have long enjoyed the speculative nature of sci-fi - the way it imagines amazing scientific breakthroughs, futuristic societies, interstellar battles, and more. It taps directly into our collective imagination.
