An error has ocurred. Please try againWhile there are many psychological/mind game horror movies on this list, it also includes many "classic" horror and Halloween films. Many of the films on this list toy with your mind in some way and feature twisted mind games, suspense, and psychological horror. The List also includes some made-for-tv thrillers and horror/thriller television series and limited series.
Please keep in mind that these films are in no particular order. Over time I have tried to rate the films as well as provide reviews, but it is a work in progress.

Palo Alto (2013)
Over pretentious Franco film with good cinematography
OK, I get it. James Franco is a man of many artistic talents, which now include publishing short stories and having a film based on that book and starring in this movie. Also anytime a Coppola directs a film, you pay attention.
Honestly the highlight of this film was that there were some very nice visuals. It was filmed like photographs being taken, which reinforced memories and nostalgia of youth. They had a good cast to work with Emma, Franco, and even Val Kilmer, but the characters were flat as was the plot and the story. It was boring. I felt like I was reliving some parts of my high school years- like the boring parts.
I'd like to read the book of short stories- I bet they are very descriptive and poetic. But I bet there's not much plot, which is why I think it was a tall order to make a decent film out of Franco's first book using a first time director.
Again, kudos for the cinematography. Maybe one day I'll try to sit down again and finish it but for now it was way too long and I couldn't get past an hour. Sorry Franco.
