These Mystery Thriller Movies Will Keep You Guessing Until the Very End

Snuggling deep into your couch for a cozy movie night can be so nice—but sometimes you'd rather be on the edge of your seat. That's when you turn off the rom-com and opt for a mystery thriller movie instead.

There's something for every kind of thrill-chaser on this list. You'll find psychological thrillers like Side Effects, classic murder mysteries like Knives Out and the newly released Glass Onion, and even a few films that flirt with the horror genre like What Lies Beneath. Some of these films are adaptations of bestselling murder mystery books, like Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train—so now you'll just have to decide if you're the kind of person who prefers to read the book or see the film first. 😝 No matter which one you choose for your next movie night, rest assured that all of these picks deliver with plenty of thrills, chills, and some of the best twists in the history of film (we're looking at you, The Sixth Sense).

After watching one or two of these thrillers, you might be in the mood for a little palate cleanser, so be sure to check out our favorite feel-good movies when you're ready to wind down!
