How dare you forget Office Space and The Big Lebowski
[QUOTE=PollytheParrot;41620863]How dare you forget Office Space and The Big Lebowski[/QUOTE]
Again, I'm losing my touch.
Also: Burn After Reading and Raising Arizona
So I love shit like Memento, Shutter Island, The Machinist etc
if someone could recommend along those lines that'd be super
Have you seen The Prestige?

Check out Mullholland Drive or Lost Highway by David Lynch. They are reminiscent to psychological thrillers like the ones you mentioned, besides the story leaves a lot open for interpretation if you like that.
Also you should watch Mullholland Drive first, Lost Highway is really confusing.
On the note of David Lynch, Blue Velvet is another good one.
Ah yes, I actually forgot that one. It's perhaps the easiest one to understand. Also I really like Kyle MacLachlan, a shame that you don't see him that often, he's a great actor.

Nope, looks great. Can't go wrong with the Nolan brothers it seems

Yeah I love stuff that makes you think, thanks for the suggestions
If you want stuff that makes you think I highly recommend stuff from David Lynch and Stanley Kubrick.
Still trying to find a good modern psychological horror film, something from the past 13 years.
I still haven't found anything... Help?
Any similar movies to Inception, limitless, fight club or american history x?
Me and my girlfriend have the urge to watch a good movie again tomorrow, can anyone recommend a good movie?
Perhaps a psychological thriller or something that is intruiging. We like a lot of stuff but especially weird and eerie movies.

Valhalla Rising
I don't know if you'd consider it much of a psychological thriller, but I did find it very eerie and unsettling.

The Tenant. A VERY GOOD thriller, I can't suggest this movie enough if you like Psychological Thrillers.

Anything by David Lynch, for example Inland Empire.
I already watched most of them with her, thanks anyway.

Red Dragon
[QUOTE=Nestophales;41639047]Red Dragon[/QUOTE]
or the superior version, Manhunter.
[QUOTE=Pops;41640386]or the superior version, Manhunter.[/QUOTE]
Eh, watch them both anyway.
Manhunter is slightly superior as a standalone film, but Red Dragon connects it to Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal.
So yeah, both are pretty good.
Manhunter is the ultimate guide to the 80s and it has Dennis Farina (rip)
Saw "Léon: The Professional" the other day. Good stuff.
Any good dramas? Both action/non-action and rather have PG-13 or mild R.
I just watched Big Trouble in Little China. What a confusing, silly waste of time. I do NOT recommend.
Hey everyone, I'm looking for some Action Thrillers; Something like Drive I guess.
Also any Romances would be nice; Something like Silver Linings Playbook or The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Any suggestions?

Romances would be 'my sassy girl'amazing film although i hated it when i saw it first time.
[QUOTE=redBadger;41701451]Any good dramas? Both action/non-action and rather have PG-13 or mild R.[/QUOTE]
[I]L.A. Confidential[/I] (R, I wouldn't necessarily say that it's mild, but it's not mile a minute "fucks" and what not)
[I]The Mummy[/I] (PG-13, not really a drama, but more of an action adventure in the style of Indiana Jones, but more like a pulp novel from the 20s. Also a guilty pleasure of mine)
[I]12 Angry Men[/I] (Can't remember it's rating, but it's a great, straight up drama)

I've heard that [I]Thief[/I] was similar to Drive.
[I](500) Days of Summer[/I] for romance. Technically it's not romance, but I found it similar to Perks.
Any good samurai movies? Not The Last Samurai.
