Thrillers have been a prominent genre in the film industry since the turn of the 20th century, but their presence in modern Hollywood stands stronger than ever.

Consequently, thrillers are often guaranteed to feature mind-bending plot twists.

The Usual Suspects has stood the test of time for having one of the greatest thriller twists in movie history. The 1995 crime movie starred some of the best actors at that time, including Gabriel Byrne, Pete Postlethwaite, and Kevin Spacey. The premise for the movie was "five guys who meet in a police line-up," but the story centers on a heist run from afar by a legendary crime lord, who turns out to be nearer than he appeared. The ending of The Usual Suspects contains an elaborate twist that almost eclipses the rest of the movie.
