Live Poll: The Best 1990s Psychological Thriller

These films showed us characters suffering huge breakdowns and as a viewer, we were sucked right into their crumbling worlds along with them. Tense, provoking, mind-bending; these are the best psychological-thriller films of the 1990s.

Which of these 1990s psychological thrillers are you most likely to remember?

I would say “The.Silence of Athens Lambs” or “The Sixth Sense”.

Let’s ask this rhetorical question? What makes a “psychological thrillers” memborable?

To me, it is two things:

1 - it has got to have an interesting twisting plot to pull you in and get you thinking. You, as an audience member, can’t be a passive observer. You have to be on the edge of your seat.

2 - you can’t see the end coming. You have to be kept in suspense the entire time. Without that, the film fails.
Hitchcock was a master at this. Almost all of his films were psychological thrillers. Especially “Psycho”, and “Marnie” and “Spellbound” and “Rebecca”.

The decade-genre poll industry strikes again, some of us try to "adapt" but you're too much of a rollercoaster, Kyle. Please give us a chance... can't you get back to something more "crafty" for a little while? :)

'Silence of the lambs' is a great deal for sure ! But I'll vote for 'Cape Frear' Which definitely gets to less attention in this poll. "Scorsese" is one of the best in this genre.
