About this list
Best thriller movies on Netflix lists the 25 highest-rated movies you can stream there in the US right now, ranked by Lantern Score: one number on a 10-point scale that combines IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic, so a title has to impress audiences and critics alike. Psycho leads with 9.6, and the list runs from 1960 to 2026, with an average score of 8.4. Only titles with plenty of votes qualify, so a film rated by a handful of people can't crowd out proven favourites. Streaming catalogues change, so the list is rebuilt every day. Open any title for its full score breakdown, cast, and where to stream, rent or buy it.
