1. Psycho (1960)
Directed by Alfred Hitchcock
Starring Anthony Perkins and Janet Leigh
Nominated for 4 Academy Awards, Including Best Director. Winner of the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress (Janet Leigh)
Before I write this, let me explain. Hitchcock is my second favorite filmmaker (trailing only to Billy Wilder). Even though this is his only film on the list, he would hold 2 more (for Rear Window and North by Northwest would be there, along with Carrie [1976]) on my top 10 thrillers of all time. Psycho is one of those movies that you just want to scream at, even at parts that aren't intentionally frightening. Hitchcock yet again proves why he has the reputation he does for making great suspense films. An absolutely perfect thriller.
