* Primer (fantastic puzzle movie, filmed on a $7,000 budget)<p>* Abre Los Ojos (Vanilla Sky is the shitty American remake of this film)<p>* Revolution #9 (best fictional depiction of schizophrenia I've ever seen)<p>* Memento (filmed backwards, about a man with a 5 minute memory)<p>* Fight Club<p>* The Game<p>* Naked Lunch (the last good Cronenberg movie)<p>* Videodrome<p>* Dead Ringers<p>* Zoo: A Zed and Two Noughts<p>* Last Year at Marienbad<p>* Requiem for a Dream
This is one of my favorite kinds of movie. I've never heard a good name for the genre. Psychological thriller? Too broad.<p>You should add <i>The Thirteenth Floor</i>. A good movie, better than its low budget, that fits squarely in the category.<p>Glad to see someone suggested <i>The Game</i>. I loved that one. It's a long way down from <i>The Game</i> and <i>Seven</i> to <i>Benjamin Button</i> and <i>The Social Network</i>.
