The Best Mystery Movies on Netflix Attempt to Uncover the Unknown

Whether you're an armchair sleuth or simply looking for a thrill, Netflix has a movie to scratch that investigative itch. Sometimes, all we want out of our moviegoing experience is a feel-good, low-maintenance boost of serotonin for 90 minutes straight. And there’s no shame in turning to the screen to clear your head. Of course, there are other times when we want to put a little legwork into our watch. After all, there are few things more satisfying than trying to keep a step ahead of a story. And what better genre is there than mystery when it comes to flexing those mental gymnastics? With guaranteed suspense and addictive storylines, mystery movies highlight one of the greatest storytelling techniques in film: leaving something for the imagination. By the end, you’ll either find yourself dumbfounded by the truth, clinging to the edge of a cliff-hanger, or high-fiving yourself for calling it from the start. So why not follow those footsteps to the TV and investigate Netflix’s mystery movies? We’ve already covered you when it comes to the best picks to get you started. Finding the missing link to your perfect movie night is elementary, dear reader. Follow our lead.

The Best Horror Movies of 2024 (So Far)

From 'Longlegs' to 'Late Night with the Devil,' the genre’s boom times are still going strong. I shouldn't have to tell you this, but it’s always a good time to watch a horror movie. You don’t need to wait until Halloween, or even a cold, dark night, to pop in a scary movie—especially when there are original, creative, and terrifying films constantly streaming and in theaters. We're only halfway through the year, and we’ve already seen surprise independent-film successes (Late Night with the Devil), major-studio home runs (Night Swim), and brilliant franchise sequels (MaXXXine). With auteurs such as M. Night Shyamalan and Robert Eggers cooking up new features for the rest of the year, we’re looking at another stellar year for the horror genre. Don't forget, Saw XI—the latest installment of the long-running series—is waiting for us later in 2024. But you can find the best of the best of the year in horror (so far) right here.
