Psychological thriller popularity on streaming platforms

Overview

Streaming platforms Netflix and Prime Video are seeing significant engagement with psychological thrillers and mystery films.

Initially, Netflix reported a resurgence in viewership for older titles, including the 2012 drama ‘Take Shelter’ and Steven Soderbergh’s 2011 medical thriller ‘Contagion’. The latter gained attention for its depiction of pandemic protocols. More recently, the trend has expanded across services. On Prime Video, the film ‘Caminando con el diablo’ reached the top three rankings. Netflix has also highlighted serial killer-themed thrillers, such as ‘The Whisper Man’.

Netflix continues to expand its catalog of suspense and psychological thriller series designed for binge-watching. Notable titles include ‘Behind Her Eyes’, a six-episode series that transitions from a story of relationship betrayal into a thriller with supernatural elements. Other featured content includes ‘The Innocent’, centered on a man rebuilding his life after an accidental killing; ‘After the Cabin’, a mystery involving a woman escaping captivity; and ‘The Chestnut Man’, which follows detectives investigating murders in Copenhagen linked to a missing child.
