    Is "The Village" counted as a psychological thriller? If yes, it was a good one

    "See No Evil" But its more like a horror movie, but yeah you could say its a psychological thriller.

    IMDB don't have a "psychological thriller" section (that I could find), but they do have a good range of films under psychological drama and thriller.

    I've given up trying to recommend films to people. Either my taste sucks, or theirs does :p :D

    I second Memento. It needs hell lot of brain to get into that movie.

    Silence of the lambs is all tiem classic.

    Trivia: Anthony Hopkings got Academy award in best actor category for Silence of the lambs. It was the shortest Academy Award winning role ( just around 16 mins in whole movie).

    Silence of the Lamb sounds a bit scarey... lol... I'm prefering ones that are very psychology heavy :D like I love the aspect of human development.. how it effects you as you grow up :D (butterfly effect!)

    SOL ( Silence of the lambs) is not scary. Its a story about a lady cop and a serial killer. Another criminal ( a man eater cannibal) D.r Hannibal played by Anthony hopkinks, helps Judy Foster to get to this serial killer.
    The psychological treatment of the movie is excellent. It deals with the dark side of human nature.

    Hannibal was the sequel of SOL. Another great movie. The best thing about Hannibal is how it present a man eater psychologist as a Heroic character.

    SOL was based on a book my Thomas Harris

    P.S. Just curious.. 8everything are you a gal or a guy?

    Psychological? Don't know. If you would ask for psychodelical, then I recommend David's Cronenberg movies. Naked Lunch for example :)
