It's the weekend already, the weather has been good so for film buffs like us, it's movie marathon time! Nothing makes for a stimulating watch like a good old psycho thriller. Here, we bring you the top 5 psychological thrillers of all time.
Inception
The one movie that you will need to watch a couple of times to understand it fully and even then you will be left wondering a little. A Christopher Nolan movie that will go down in history as a psycho-thriller classic, 'Inception' toys with the idea of lucid dreaming and sub-layers of the dream world. We, for one, can watch this over and over again Leonardo DiCaprio is too good!
Identity
The next movie on our list is 'Identity' starring John Cusack and Ray Liotta 10 strangers get acquainted at a stranded motel in Nevada and they come to know that they are being killed off one after the other. A movie filled with suspense and gore this is definitely one to brighten up or darken your Saturday night.
Shutter Island
Another Leonardo DiCaprio starrer, 'Shutter Island' is one of the best movies made on schizophrenia. A Martin Scorsese gem this movie delves deep into the protagonist's paranoia and the climax just leaves you flabbergasted and impressed. Of course, it is based on a book by the same name, written by Dennis Lehane.
Fight Club
The first rule of 'Fight Club' is that you never talk about it. Another movie based on a novel, 'Fight Club' was one of the best movies of 1999. Brad Pitt amazed with his eccentricity and Edward Norton with his struggle for sanity. Schizophrenia always makes for a hard-hitting thriller and 'Fight Club' does not fail.
The Shining
Even if you haven't watched the movie, or read the book you just need to watch the trailer of the movie to have chills run down your spine. One of Jack Nicholson's best performances and Stanley Kubrick's best works 'The Shining' fans are divided as to whether the book is better or the movie. Watch it for yourself and find out!s
