Suspense Movies - What Are The Best Suspense Movies Ever Made?

If you are like me when it comes to movies, then we are on the same plane when I say that I rate the best suspense movies on the plot and how the suspense is developed throughout the movie rather than having single designated points of suspense. Most movies are easy to figure out who done this or where the entire plot is headed, but if a movie can conceal this feature of the movie, then it deserves to be rated at the top of my list.

One of the best suspense movies that distinguishes itself in this regard is the suspense movie “Sev7en”. Starring the famous Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman, the movie is about 2 city cops who go on a quest to track down a serial killer who uses the 7 deadly sins on his victims. The film begins in an investigation that involves a man who eats himself to death. While the audience is already aware the unfolding events will represent the 7 deadly sins in some way, no one is prepared for the climactic finale that will leave all awestruck.

Have you ever rooted for the good guy and the bad guy in a movie? Then “Silence of the Lambs” starring Jodie Foster and Anthony Hopkins will have you doing just that. Jodie, a rookie FBI agent, with the help of a locked-up serial killer played by Hopkins investigates the killing and skinning of women by a serial killer called Buffalo Bill. This movie is hard to place, horror or drama, but whatever the case, the suspense in the movie is up there.

Talk about a flawless movie and “The Usual Suspects” comes to mind. The story is told of a crippled man who is the only survivor of a criminal group all killed while on a final job together with the search known only as Keyser Soze. The suspense is so deep that it was said that even after filming, even the actors were did not know who the real Keyser Soze was. Talk about suspense “behind the scenes”.

The “fight Club” is another Brad Pitt movie that I like to rate as suspenseful. Brad and Edward Norton start a fight club where guys get together and vent out frustrations by fighting. As the club grows, it takes the entire nation by storm and what follows next is purely suspense. These suspense movies will have you glued to your seat and scratching your head for answers.
