Top Ten Underrated Thriller Movies

The Top Ten

1 Sorry, Wrong Number

A wonderful claustrophobic thriller with the magnificent Barbara Stanwyck.

2 Tenebre

3 The Hand that Rocks the Cradle

4 Bound

5 Frailty

One of the best movies of the early 00s. Great twist, excellent Bill Paxton performance. Shame he didn't direct more than a couple of films.

Starring Bill Paxton & Matthew McConaughey. This deserves more than 7.3. Should've gotten 7.8 Its quite underrated.

6 Gone Baby Gone

Got 7.7 on IMDb but I don't hear much about this movie.

7 Single White Female

8 Unlawful Entry

9 Don't Bother to Knock

10 The Spiral Staircase

The Contenders

11 This Gun for Hire

12 The Wrong Man

13 I Confess

14 Twisted

Terrible. Guessed the killer from just the trailer.

15 Gothika

16 Twisted Nerve

17 Misery

This movie is well known, critically acclaimed and has an Oscar winning performance... is it really underrated?

This is widely praised critically and earned Kathy Bates an Oscar. Nothing underrated about it.

Very good movie

18 When a Stranger Calls

19 The Boy

20 Duel

21 Scissors

22 Primal Fear

23 The Last House on the Left (1972)

24 Memories of Murder

More likely crime/mystery/drama than thriller. But it has thrilling moments. It may be famous as a Korean movie but internationally not very famous.
