Ok I think I finally got it.

1. Vertigo
2. The Usual Suspects
3. Psycho
4. Misery
5. The Prestige
6. Rear Window
7. Frailty
8. Stir of Echoes
9. Edward Scissorhands (I'll ask for a ruling on this one)
10. The Butterfly Effect

HM
Gone Girl
Arlington Road
Shutter Island
The Stepfather
Village of the Damned (1960)

I was gonna list Gattaca as a thriller

:leon: never thought if it that way but i guess it could work.. IMDB lists it that way (
Drama | Romance | Sci-Fi | Thriller)

I'm saving that one for my Sci Fi List :smugdraper:

and it'll be mentioned in a upcoming thread of mine :jawalrus:

Behind You
Christmas flicks next month was my thought but that could potentially be a very small list or maybe not. I planned on letting people include movies set at Christmas not just about Christmas
I think Christmas movies is a larger enough well to choose from. There are hundreds of explicitly Christmas movies that have been made over the years ranging in genre from White Christmas to Black Christmas.

I'm allowing noir in this thread. some people debate whether it's a genre or a style.

The term film noir, French for "black film",[1] first applied to Hollywood films by French critic Nino Frank in 1946, was unrecognized by most American film industry professionals of that era.[2] Cinema historians and critics defined the category retrospectively. Before the notion was widely adopted in the 1970s, many of the classic films noirs[a] were referred to as melodramas. Whether film noir qualifies as a distinct genre is a matter of ongoing debate among scholars.

"Film noir is not a genre (as Raymond Durgnat has helpfully pointed out over the objections of Higham and Greenberg’s Hollywood in the Forties). It is not defined, as are the western and gangster genres, by conventions of setting and conflict, but rather by the more subtle qualities of tone and mood"

I guess we see which side of the debate you're on breh :sas2:
