30 mind bending mystery horror movies from the 2000s onward - Ranked
Welcome to Knockout Horror. We all know that feeling, don’t we? You’re halfway through a film, the tension is mounting, the dread is building, but the biggest and most terrifying question isn’t who the killer is… it’s “what the hell is actually going on?”. We’ve all been there before and know that very distinct feeling. In fact, it was a movie I watched recently that inspired this list.
Welcome to the brilliant, mind-bending world of mystery horror. These aren’t just your standard whodunnits; these are the films that hand you a puzzle box covered in gore and guts and tell you to solve it before the timer runs out.
Let’s be honest, there’s a special kind of magic to a film that engages your brain just as much as it chills your bones. They’re the films that make you lean in, rewind, and whisper “wait, what did they just say?” at the screen. They also make you head on over to a website like mine hoping that I have come up with an answer to what the hell is going on. You become an active participant, a detective trying to piece together the clues, all while the director masterfully builds a suffocating sense of atmosphere and terror around you.
With that in mind, we’ve decided to celebrate these brilliant brain-melters. We’ve put together a huge countdown of 30 of the very best mystery horror movies. We’ve got it all, from cosmic-horror mind-benders and grim folk-horror puzzles to twisty psychological thrillers and found-footage nightmares that leave you questioning everything. All from the last 25 years.
Get your detective hat on, and let’s dive into the mysteries… I’ve tried to avoid spoilers as much as possible so you should be safe to just jump right in.
30. Mandrake (2022)
Mandrake is one of those movies that splits critics and viewers, as evidenced by a strong Rotten Tomatoes score and a weak IMDb user score. This is a slow and dreary movie set in Northern Ireland but the mystery element is actually quite intriguing. A probation officer named Cathy is tasked with the rehabilitation of a notorious killer known as ‘Bloody’ Mary Laidlaw.
Said to be a witch by the local townsfolk. When two local children go missing near Mary’s farm, Cathy is forced to confront the area’s troubling folk-horror past. If you are looking for some witch related horror fun but with a more modern twist, this could be a great option. You can check out our review of Mandrake right here. We also explained the ending, too.
What Makes It Compelling: The mystery is whether Mary is a reformed woman or actually a malevolent force of nature. Is she a killer, a witch, or just a scapegoat for something even darker lurking in the Irish countryside? It’s interesting stuff built on some fascinating Celtic folklore.
29. Consecration (2023)
Director Christopher Smith makes his first of a couple of appearances on this list of mystery horror movies with 2023’s Consecration. Following the suspicious death of her priest brother, Grace (Jena Malone) travels to the remote Scottish convent where he died.
She’s not buying the supposed ‘suicide’ story and decides to start doing some digging, only to find the nuns are guarding a truly unholy secret. While Consecration’s mystery element is quite interesting, it’s not a flawless movie, hence its position on this list. It’s definitely worth checking out, though, for some religious horror fun. Check out our review right here.
What Makes It Compelling: It’s a classic ‘cover-up’ mystery set against a religious backdrop. The film makes you question the nature of Grace’s own past and her connection to this ancient, blasphemous secret that has somehow consumed the life of her brother. Is she just an investigator, or is she a key part of the puzzle?
28. Somnium (2025)
This is one of the most recent movies on this list and what I enjoyed quite a lot, despite a few flaws. An aspiring actress in LA takes a job at a seemingly futuristic sleep clinic that promises to help its clients achieve their dreams. She soon discovers the clinic is hiding a troubling mystery.
It’s pretty simple stuff as far as mystery horror movies go but the Hollywood-obsessed lead character makes things a bit more interesting. Somnium slips up on a few occasions but, generally speaking, it does enough to stay intriguing. Check out our review right here and we also explained the ending if you need a little clarification.
What Makes It Compelling: The mystery is two-fold: What is the true, Cronenberg-esque nature of the ‘treatment’ at this clinic, and what is the terrifying ‘shadow man’ that seems to be haunting our protagonist. It’s pretty interesting stuff even if it feels a little unfulfilling when all is said and done.
27. The Tunnel (2011)
I am trying to keep these found-footage mystery horror movies pretty low on the list because I know they are divisive. The Tunnel is a hell of a lot of fun, though. It holds up as well as any of these DIY films from the 2010s and is well worth checking out.
An ambitious Aussie journalist and her crew decide to investigate why the government abandoned a project to use the homeless-filled train tunnels beneath Sydney. They go down looking for a story and find something else entirely. Check out our review of The Tunnel right here.
What Makes It Compelling: It’s a classic found-footage mystery. What is the “more pressing” issue the government is covering up? The answer, which they find in the suffocating darkness, is terrifying.
26. Cobweb (2023)
Now I could really see this movie appealing to fans of Hollywood Horror. It has a nice mystery element but also throws in a few jump scares, and the like. A lonely young boy named Peter is plagued by a constant tap, tap, tap from inside his bedroom wall.
His rather bizarre parents (played brilliantly by a perfectly cast Antony Starr and Lizzy Caplan) insist it’s just his imagination, but the voice starts to tell him terrible things about them. There’s some really decent tension here and some genuinely fun popcorn horror style scares. This would be a perfect option for a sleepover mystery horror movie.
What Makes It Compelling: The mystery is your classic “what’s in the wall?” scenario. Is it a ghost? A monster? Or is the real threat the two people who are supposed to be doting parents to their son? The answer is a fantastic, gothic-nspired surprise.
25. Butterfly Kisses (2018)
I’m trying to be objective with my positioning of Butterfly Kisses on this list because it’s a movie I really love. A down-on-his-luck wedding videographer discovers a box of film tapes made by a pair of students about a local urban legend called ‘Peeping Tom’, who only appears if you stare down a specific tunnel for an hour without blinking.
After learning that the students who made the tape actually disappeared. The man becomes increasingly obsessed with the mystery, finding himself diving deeper and deeper into a world that threatens to consume him. The story here is extremely interesting and handled with no sense of irony. It’s fascinating stuff and even features some incredibly effective found-footage scares. Check out our review of Butterfly Kisses right here.
What Makes It Compelling: It’s a brilliant, layered, meta-mystery with an absolutely fantastic folk legend at its centre. The first puzzle is whether the student’s tapes are real. The second, and more compelling, mystery is whether the legend itself is real, as the filmmaker’s own life begins to fall apart. Awesome stuff.
24. Scream (2022)
We can’t go with the original because it’s just a little outside of the list’s parameters but how about the 2022 reboot of Scream? A new Ghostface killer emerges in Woodsboro, targeting a fresh group of teenagers who all seem to be related to the original victims (and killers).
It’s up to the legacy heroes – Sid, Gale, and Dewey unmask the new threat and prevent another massacre. Who the hell would want to live in Woodsboro? You would have to be insane or, at the very least, getting a great price on your house. Ready or Not’s Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett take on directorial duties from Wes Craven in this surprisingly decent rehash of the 1996 formula.
What Makes It Compelling: It’s a classic slasher-horror whodunnit. The entire film is a puzzle, planting red herrings and clues while mercilessly mocking the typical “rules” of the mystery it’s presenting.
23. Session 9 (2001)
I remember reactions to this movie being pretty mixed back on release so it’s cool to see people’s opinions change over time. An asbestos clean-up crew takes a job at an abandoned mental asylum. As the pressure of the job and their personal issues mount, they’re drawn to a box of old audio tapes detailing the therapy sessions of a patient with multiple personalities.
Naturally, this is far more focused on suspense and tension than jump scares or gore. That only makes Session 9 all the more compelling, though. It works incredibly well and few movies have such a fantastic sense of atmosphere.
What Makes It Compelling: The film runs two mysteries simultaneously: What is the dark secret hidden in the “Session 9” tape, and what malevolent force in the asylum is turning the crew against each other? “I live in the weak and the wounded, Doc.” Chills. Both actors Peter Mullan and David Caruso said they experienced actual strange goings on when filming inside the Bonner Medical Building. That only adds to the creepiness.
22. The Conspiracy (2012)
What do you know? Another found-footage mystery horror film. My apologies to anyone who hates this style of movie making but this isn’t going to be the last entry on the list. The Conspiracy is so well executed, however, that even people who hate found-footage might enjoy it.
Two young documentary filmmakers decide to make a film about a local conspiracy theorist. When their subject mysteriously vanishes, they decide to follow his research and are drawn into a world of secretive, powerful organisations that threaten to consume them. Director and writer Christopher MacBride handled this movie with no sense of irony. He presents it as a deadly serious mockumentary that’s actually completely believable. Awesome for fans of this particular type of horror, check out our review of The Conspiracy right here.
What Makes It Compelling: A fantastic found-footage film where the mystery is “how real is the rabbit hole and how deep the rabbit hole goes?” The filmmakers’ journey from sceptics to terrified believers is utterly gripping.
21. Kill List (2011)
Some of Kill List’s utterly brutal scenes can kinda make you forget that, at its core, it is a compelling mystery folk-horror like no other. Two ex-soldiers turned struggling hitmen, take on a new “kill list” from a very strange client. The job seems straightforward at first, but each target on the list drags them deeper into a terrifying, cult-like conspiracy.
This is one of those unflinching films that seems to be something of a trademark for horror from here in the UK. Utterly grim, rather hopeless, and full of unexpected twists and turns that are sure to leave you both surprised and a little bit repulsed. It’s an awesome movie with a compelling mystery that is most definitely not for the faint of heart.
What Makes It Compelling: The mystery is… what the hell is going on? Who are these people they’re killing, why do they seem to expect them, and what is the grotesque goal of the cult they’ve stumbled into? Some of the scenes are legitimately tough to watch and the ending is a punch to the gut.
20. The Skeleton Key (2005)
I really like to mention The Skeleton Key wherever possible because it really feels like this is a movie that gets forgotten about. A hospice nurse (Kate Hudson) takes a job at a remote Louisiana plantation. She’s given a skeleton key to the house but finds one room in the attic that’s locked.
Her curiosity gets the best of her, leading her to uncover a dark and terrifying mystery surrounding the home’s owners. This is a really smart movie that goes in a really unexpected direction. The Hoodoo trappings are absolutely fascinating and the ending is pretty damn devastating. A great option for a mystery horror with a difference.
What Makes It Compelling: It’s a fantastic, Southern Gothic mystery that’s absolutely dripping with tension and atmosphere. The puzzle is the house’s history and the nature of the “magic” the old owners practice. It leads to one of the most wonderfully bleak endings of the 2000s that’s perfect for those who are sick of overly saccharin finales.
19. They Look Like People (2015)
I absolutely adore this movie but it’s weirdly divisive. Perhaps because it is kind of a lo-fi horror that really isn’t all that scary. It’s very slow, as well featuring a lot of quiet moments of conversation. It wants to get into your head on a psychological level and weave an intricate story of the damage psychosis-based mental illness can do to someone’s mind. If it is actually psychosis causing the problem in the first place.
A troubled man, Wyatt, becomes convinced that the people around him are slowly being replaced by malevolent, body-snatching creatures. He has to decide whether to ‘save’ his best friend, Christian, or if he’s just suffering from a dangerous delusion. Check out our review of They Look Like People right here.
What Makes It Compelling: The film’s unbearable tension comes from its core mystery: Is Wyatt really experiencing the haunting things he is seeing, or is he sick? The entire film is a tight-rope walk between a quiet apocalyptic invasion and a tragic story of mental illness.
18. The Invitation (2015)
We definitely don’t mean the 2022 vampire film The Invitation here so double check before watching. A man named Will attends a dinner party at the home of his ex-wife, the first time he’s seen her since the death of their son. As the night wears on, her and her new partner’s overly-friendly behaviour suddenly starts to feel rather sinister.
Something director Karyn Kusama does really well in The Invitation is to use the lead character Will as an avatar for the viewer. He’s not fooled like his friends. He knows something strange is going on and he reflects every ounce of doubt and sceptisicm that the person watching has. It’s awesome stuff and plays out in quite the devastating manner.
What Makes It Compelling: The tension is pretty damn agonising. The mystery is whether Will is understandably paranoid and projecting his grief, or if this dinner party is actually a cover for something far more sinister.
17. The Empty Man (2020)
An ex-cop, grieving the loss of his family, investigates the disappearance of a local girl. After digging deeper into the mystery, he begins to make a link between the strange happenings and the urban-legend of a figure known as The Empty Man.
This one goes into some serious cosmic-horror territory with its mystery element. It’s quite confusing at times and probably demands a second watch but isn’t that what people love about mystery-horror movies?
What Makes It Compelling: This film starts as a standard missing-person case and spirals into a full-blown cosmic-horror mind-bender. The mystery evolves from “where is the girl?” to “what is this thing they’re talking about, and what is its ultimate goal?”. Interesting stuff.
16. Caveat (2020)
Everybody is talking about 2024’s Oddity but that doesn’t mean they should forget about Damian Mc Carthy’s brilliant 2020 mystery horror debut Caveat. In fact, we should all be giving it far more attention because it is an underrated gem.
A man with partial memory loss accepts a job from a shifty acquaintance. The task is simple: look after his psychologically disturbed niece in her isolated island home for a few days. The catch? He has to wear a leather harness that chains him to the wall. The atmosphere is incredibly tense, the movie looks gorgeous, and the mystery is tantalisingly brilliant. Check out our review of Caveat right here.
What Makes It Compelling: This film is a pure, grimy, dirty, dreary nightmare. This isn’t a movie with just one mystery, either. There are actually three: What happened to the girl’s mother, why is the man really there, and what is the deal with that horrifying, drumming rabbit toy? Amazing stuff.
15. Caddo Lake (2024)
This is a fantastic movie that really surprised me. You might suggest that it leans a little more towards thriller rather than horror but there’s still plenty for genre fans to enjoy. When a young girl goes missing near Caddo Lake, her stepsister’s search for her uncovers a mind-bending connection between her disappearance and a similar vanishing that happened decades earlier.
Caddo Lake goes in some surprising directions that you might not seem coming. Its plot twists and turns, taking you back and forth between time periods in a non-linear manner that will leave you feeling just a little bewildered before the big reveal. Check out our review of Caddo Lake right here.
What Makes It Compelling: It’s produced by M. Night Shyamalan and his influence is very apparent, here. The mystery is time itself. The film asks how a present-day tragedy can be inextricably and physically linked to the past. Taking you on a journey through time to explain away its bizarre story.
14. Coherence (2013)
It’s very cool to see how much extra love this movie is getting over recent years. Eight friends gather for a dinner party on the night a comet is passing overhead. The power goes out, and when they look outside, they see a single, identical house down the street, hinting at some very bizarre events to come.
This one probably isn’t going to be for everyone. Coherence is a serious mind-bender that sometimes feels like it makes virtually no sense at all. It’s surprisingly tense, though, and fans of science fiction are going to absolutely adore the mystery element that takes centre stage. It’s fascinating stuff.
What Makes It Compelling: This is a high-concept, lo-fi, sci-fi mystery. What is that other house? Who is in it? The film becomes a mind-bending puzzle as the friends realise the comet may have actually shattered their reality, and they have to figure out the new, unsettling rules.
13. Sinister (2012)
This movie really surprised a lot of people back when it released. A true-crime writer (Ethan Hawke) moves his family into a house where a horrifying murder took place. He finds a box of Super 8 “home movies” in the attic that show not just one, but a series of brutal murders. He begins using these videos in his research, little realising that he would soon find much more than he bargained for.
The thing that works so well about Sinister is that it manages to balance the expectations of fans of both classic and modern horror. The mystery at the heart of the movie is compelling and there is tons of suspense to keep horror fans thoroughly entertained.
What Makes It Compelling: The mystery is who filmed these harrowing movies and what is the link between them? The investigation into the occult symbol in the films and the ‘Mr. Boogie’ figure is one of the most effective and compelling detective-style plots in modern horror.
12. It Follows (2014)
After a sexual encounter, a young woman named Jay finds herself relentlessly pursued by a shape-shifting entity that only she can see. After encountering previous victims, she begins to formulate a plan to rid herself of the monster but is it a plan she can actually go through with?
Obviously, It Follows is something of an analogy for the perils of not practicing safe sex. Despite that, it plays out like a full-blown mystery horror that sees Jay and her friends attempt to discover a way to break the curse and save Jay from imminent death. It’s intriguing stuff and also manages some seriously scary moments on a couple of occasions. Check out our review right here.
What Makes It Compelling: The mystery is the entity itself. What is it? What are its rules? Where did it come from? It’s an unstoppable force and we know little about it. The characters’ desperate attempts to understand its logic are what makes it so terrifying.
11. Triangle (2009)
Triangle is the movie that inspired this list after I covered it for my October 2025 horror movie-a-day feature. In my opinion, it’s one of the best mystery horror films around but it might not play out exactly as you expect. This one twists and contorts both time and the viewer’s perception to create something ultimately fascinating.
A group of friends on a yacht are forced by a storm to board a derelict, empty ocean liner. The main character, Jess, is struck by a powerful sense of deja vu, and soon a masked killer begins hunting them. But is there more to the boat than they originally thought? Check out our review of Triangle right here.
What Makes It Compelling: The mystery is one part the ship and another part Jess. Why is it empty? Why does Jess feel like she’s been there before? And who is the killer? It’s a Sisyphean nightmare where the answer to the puzzle is the trap itself.
10. Lake Mungo (2008)
Sorry guys, another found-footage mystery horror movie. The funny thing about Lake Mungo is that it seems to divide the actual found-footage loving community right down the middle between those who think it is a masterpiece and those that just don’t get it. Me? I absolutely love it but it did take me a few goes to warm up to it.
It’s presented as a haunting mockumentary that follows a family trying to cope with the accidental drowning of their 16-year-old daughter, Alice. Their grief is complicated when her ghost seemingly appears in photos and video footage but there seems to be much more to the mystery than actually meets the eye. Check out our review of Lake Mungo right here.
What Makes It Compelling: The film sets you up to feel like you are solving a ghost story but the real mystery is something altogether more human. The family discovers that there was much more to Alice than they ever realised. Those final scenes, as well.. Just mortifying.
9. Timecrimes (2007)
I remember finding this movie after watching Nacho Vigalondo’s ABCs of Death segment A is for Apocalypse and searching for more of the director’s work. Little did I realise I was about to stumble on one of the best mystery horror movies ever made.
A regular guy named Héctor is relaxing in his garden when he spots a naked woman in the woods. He investigates but is attacked by a man with his head wrapped in pink bandages. He flees into a lab and finds himself in a machine that is able to manipulate time itself. Timecrimes doesn’t fully lean into horror, as such, as it’s far more concerned with its time-loop shenanigans. It’s a ton of fun, though.
What Makes It Compelling: The mystery is something of a tightly-wound paradox. Héctor finds himself in a time loop, and the central puzzle becomes: Who is the bandaged man, and can Héctor stop the chain of events he has just set in motion?
8. The Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016)
A father-and-son coroner team receive the body of a beautiful, unidentified woman (Jane Doe) found buried in the basement of a house. As they try to determine her cause of death, they find that her insides tell a story that is impossibly supernatural.
The great thing about André Øvredal’s The Autopsy of Jane Doe is the way it unfolds like you are in the room with the father and son team as they perform the poor woman’s autopsy. Each cut reveals a new piece of information and adds a new layer to the story. It’s fascinating stuff and you could cut the tension with a knife. Check out our review right here.
What Makes It Compelling: It’s a medical mystery from hell. Every incision and discovery only deepens the puzzle. Who is she? How can she be dead and yet… not? The answer they uncover is surprising, and the ending is absolutely gutting.
7. A Tale of Two Sisters (2003)
We had to feature one of South Korea’s greatest horror movies of all time in here. A teenage girl, Su-mi, is released from a mental institution and returns home to her sister, Su-yeon, their father, and their cold, cruel stepmother. Soon, the house is plagued by violent ghostly visions, and the sisters must unravel their family’s dark, tragic past.
This is another one that is right up there on the “need to watch it again” scale. The fascinating thing is, the mystery unfurls very gradually but then, when it does, it completely changes everything that came before it. This makes that all important second watch all the more enjoyable. Amazing stuff and extremely creepy in parts.
What Makes It Compelling: A Tale of Two Sisters is a rather heartbreaking gothic mystery. The puzzle is the identity of the ghost, the nature of the stepmother’s cruelty, and the truth of the event that tore the family apart. The final reveal is devastating and recontextualises literally every scene.
6. Noroi: The Curse (2005)
This is another movie I am guilty of recommending far too much. I promise it’s the last found-footage on the list, as well. We have to get a J-Horror in the top ten, though, and they don’t come much better than Noroi: The Curse when it comes to captivating yet scary mystery stories.
A paranormal researcher, Masafumi Kobayashi, documenting the disappearance of a young girl goes missing, himself. His tapes reveal a strange connection between events that hints at the legend of a demon known as Kagutaba being far more real than it originally seemed. Noroi is a very slow burn but if that sounds like your kind of thing you will find a legitimately compelling story and some seriously unsettling moments that still resonate to this day. Check out our review right here.
What Makes It Compelling: It’s the ultimate “conspiracy board” horror film. The mystery is the investigation itself. You watch Kobayashi slowly piece together a terrifying, ancient puzzle from dozens of tiny clues, and the sheer scale and dread of what he uncovers is legitimately bone-chilling.
5. Hereditary (2018)
I have to imagine this one would be at the top of a lot of people’s favourite horror lists. The funny thing is, I doubt a lot of people actually consider it to be a mystery horror despite the intriguing investigation at the heart of its plot.
After the family matriarch passes away, her daughter’s family begins to unravel under the weight of grief and a series of increasingly sinister and tragic events. It’s a great movie that straddles many different genres including supernatural, mystery, drama, and occult. Check out our review of Hereditary right here.
What Makes It Compelling: The mystery is the grandmother’s legacy. What dark secrets was she keeping? The film masterfully peels back the layers, revealing that their “family tragedy” is not an accident but a meticulously orchestrated, generations-long plot.
4. The Others (2001)
This is another movie that feels like it is getting a lot of renewed love in recent years. Not that it wasn’t well regarded back on release. I think it really surprised a hell of a lot of people and became an instant horror hit. It manages to blend that old-fashioned gothic haunted-house spookiness with a seriously compelling horror mystery.
A devoutly religious mother (Nicole Kidman) lives with her two photosensitive children in a massive, draughty mansion in 1945. After new servants arrive, the children claim they can hear and see ‘others’ in the house. Convinced that the home might haunted, the truth will soon become clear and it’s even more shocking than they might have thought.
What Makes It Compelling: This is the quintessential haunted house mystery coming off the back of a renewed obsession with spooky mysteries courtesy of The Sixth Sense. The mother is convinced intruders are in her home, but the servants are suspicious, and the “ghosts” seem to be playing by different rules. The twist is legendary for a reason, people absolutely love it.
3. Get Out (2017)
A young Black photographer, Chris, goes away for the weekend to meet his white girlfriend’s seemingly lovely, liberal parents. Initially concerned, his girlfriend assures him that her family will love him and won’t judge him. After all, they would have voted for Obama three times if they could have. He quickly notices, however, that the other Black people in the neighbourhood are… off.
Get Out is horror told from a different perspective and that’s what makes the mystery so compelling. Everything seems off but you are never quite sure why that is. It tells a powerful story about a whole new breed of racism all while managing to be legitimately scary, too. Check out our review of Get Out right here.
What Makes It Compelling: It’s a social thriller built around a horrifying and unexpected mystery. Why is everyone so strange? What is “the sunken place”? And what really happens to the men who visit this family?
2. The Wailing (2016)
To be perfectly honest, South Korean movies could make up the bulk of this list. Mystery horror and thriller films are just something they do so well. The Wailing is no exception. A bumbling policeman in a small Korean village investigates a bizarre, violent sickness that’s spreading shortly after the arrival of a mysterious Japanese stranger who lives in the hills.
Look, it’s long and the story is pretty damn ambiguous so you are going to have to settle in and buckle up. Once you get further in everything seems to become more and more clear, revealing a story that’s actually been intensely well formed from the very first shot. Some will definitely dislike the slightly open ending, though.
What Makes It Compelling: This is a 2.5-hour exercise in confusion. The mystery at the movie’s heart is the source of the evil. Is it the stranger? Is it a ghost? Is it a different demon? The film gives you three different answers and leaves you to figure out who to trust.
1. Black Swan (2010)
A dedicated, almost painfully perfect ballerina (Natalie Portman) wins the lead role in Swan Lake. The pressure to embody both the pure White Swan and the sensual Black Swan causes her to unravel, especially when a new, uninhibited rival (Mila Kunis) arrives. Full disclosure, I am fairly sure this is the first time I have ever recommended or even spoke about Black Swan on this website. That’s pretty insane because I absolutely loved it back when I first watched.
It manages that really delicate balance between proper psychological horror and compelling mystery horror without missing a beat. The entire mystery element revolves around whether the events taking place are real or just a deluded fantasy. Absolutely essential viewing and an easy number 1 on our list.
What Makes It Compelling: This is a pure psychological mystery and it is riveting from start to finish. Is Nina’s rival actually sabotaging her, or is she suffering a complete psychotic break? We’re trapped in her head, unable to tell hallucination from reality, and it’s a dark place to be.
