r/MovieSuggestions

I'm looking for movies that made fun of the times or of history to spark conversation or controversy. They make fun of evil and traumatic moments in history.

Just like the title says, I’m looking for movies/tv shows that have the sunny vibe. Preferably no older than 1990s and looking more for the thriller/crime genre. Thanks!

Looking for weird/surreal horror or thriller movies. Im open to watch just about everything but the weirder the better lol. I've seen quite a few but for some reason I really enjoy the stalker troupe type movies or the really weird uncomfortable Yorgos Lanthimos type of horror.

Tonights movie is 'Willard' 2002 which is right up my alley 🤣

I can't think of a movie that specifically does this but I'm sure it exists. For some reason that sounds like an intriguing plot because the idea of being "found out" for something you are sneaking around and doing is a very natural feeling everyone has had at some point.

Fwiw, I don't care if the main character is a protagonist or antagonist.

Thanks and appreciate the recommendations

I'm obsessed with Insidious! Love that mix of supernatural scares, creepy vibes, and that eerie otherworldly feel.

Anyone got recs with the same energy? Please drop them below! (It's also alright if the movies were not in English as long as there's an English subtitles available)

Looking for feel good movies that done require much focus. light comedy + mild drama ... something like that.

would prefer movies post 2015 and English language...

thanks...

What it says on the tin. I’m a woman who’s grossed out and worn out by the dating scene and i want a movie that helps me feel better. I prefer dark humor/ weird plots to rom coms . Prefer it not be straight up horror or have subtitles but i can deal if the movie is good.

It's been a really tough week for me. Mood is down and don't feel like doing anything today.

If anyone can kindly suggest me a movie or animation that's cozy, cute or heartwarming.

I really prefer animation though and no romance please, Thanks and wish you all happy weekends!

Hi. Me and some teens(between 13#16 yrs old) wanna watch some films with the aesthetic and emotional tone as Flipped and Bridge to Terabithia - stories about pre-teens or young teens navigating friendship, first love, and the bittersweet process of growing up.

Any recommendations for films with this kind of vibe?

For me it’s probably Prisoners. Incredible acting, insane tension, and one of the few thrillers that actually stayed in my head for days after watching it. But at the same time it’s so heavy and uncomfortable that I can’t just casually tell someone “yeah you should totally watch this tonight.”

Curious what movie fits that category for everyone else.

I have been feeling burnt out for many years, Need a movie where the whole premise is around burn out and burnt out ppl. I really need to see how to cope with it and move ahead.

Don't worry Im taking medical help, this is not a substitute for it. I just want some motivation, real life example if possible, so that it can aid me to come out of this situation.

This might be a hard ask since the show didn't get a lot of traction at the time I don't think. They are like very bizarre, very absurd premises played totally seriously like The Twilight Zone, with a signature Tim & Eric flair. I saw two Letterboxd reviews for The Monkey (2025) and Infinity Pool (2023) that said they could have been Bedtime Stories plots/episodes, and I could totally see it. If you are familiar with the tone/stories of Bedtime Stories, what other movies do you think fit that sort of same ecological niche?

I haven't really watched much movies of the horror genre and the ones I watched weren't so scary either, I really want to watch the scariest of them.

And I'm not talking "gave you the chills" type of scary. Nah I want the most traumatizing movie you've ever watched. I love watching horror movies and I'd love to know what movies traumatized you the most, and I'll watch the one's you suggest.

I recently watched a couple of films, Hokum (2026) and His House (2020). I really enjoyed them, but I found myself after both films going down an internet rabbit hole, looking into the history of the creature (minor spoiler alert : The cailleach in Hokum and the apeth in His House).

Can anyone recommend some more films that feature more obscure creatures from folklore around the world that I can sink my teeth into to scratch this new itch ? Thank you

so yeah, basically what the title says, im looking for something i will thoroughly not enjoy bc life has been going pretty rough lately and something like that might take my find of things

Looking for movies similar to Enter the Void, Inland Empire, and The Holy Mountain. something visually really appealing with a unique style and that same kind of intense, surreal feel. Any recommendations?

It was a pretty good show and I really liked the aspect of being a professional hitman that doesn't make sloppy mistakes so now I'm looking for anything similar to it

Movies I've seen that are similar to it (in the aspect of being a professional hitman):

- Harry Brown

- The Amateur

- The Killer (2023)

- The Accountant 1 & 2 (really loved this one)

- The Foreigner

- The Equalizer trilogy

I know of The Day of Jackal and I'm actually just waiting until the show is finished if it ever will, I don't really like unfinished shows

also I actually used another post on a different sub from several months ago as reference on making this post so it might seem eerily similar to that lol

oh and not something like John Wick btw, I mean I also really like force of nature/one man army MCs but I can find plenty of those easily

Hi, I am looking for suggestions for comedy movies or other interesting silly, happy, good movies that will keep you glued. The only thing is that they have to be on streaming services... I believe we have almost if not all streaming services so that helps, but still.

Thank you!

Already saw Happy Death Day films,Groundhog Day and Source Code.Anything else goes,just as long as it has lots of time loop stuff happening.

Looking for something like Death Race 2000 that blends offensive dark humor, with sex appeal, and all the other extremities that come with the exploitation genre. The trashier, and crazier, the better.
