Here's a doozy for lovers of lists and thrillers. The British Film Institute has come up with 100 listed alphabetically. See them all at the link:

But what really is a thriller? Is CHINATOWN a thriller or a deep romantic drama with thrills added?
I am happy with 90% of this list, most of the obvious choices are here - from Chabrol's LE BOUCHER (right) to THE BIG HEAT (below), and pleased to see Moll's HARRY, HE'S HERE TO HELP included, but would have to fit in :
- OBSESSION - DePalma, 1976
- THE PARALLAX VIEW - Pakula, 1974
- LE SAMOURAI - Melville, 1967
- CHAIR DE POULE - Duvivier, 1963
- COMA - Crichton, 1978
- THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR - Pollock, 1975
- LES MAUDITS - Clement, 1948
- THE BIG COMBO - Lewis, 1955.
