If you’re in the mood for a movie night, then we’ve rounded up a few murder mystery movies that would make for a great marathon! So grab your popcorn and snacks, kick up your feet, and enjoy a movie (or three) from the comfort of your lounge!

1. Knives Out (2019)

Harlan Thrombey, a rich and very famous mystery author, is found dead in his study and each and every member of his twisted selfish family is a suspect. Detective Benoit Blanc is hired by someone to investigate the crime. As the story proceeds, it all takes a different turn. Did Harlan kill himself? Or did someone want him dead? This movie is a terrific example of a classic whodunit with a modern twist.

2. The Girl with a Dragon Tattoo (2011)

A reporter with nothing to lose teams up with a weird but genius hacker to investigate a 40-year-old murder case. The gut-wrenchingly twisted Vanger family raises suspicion and oozes mystery during every second of the movie. What is the actual mystery in this movie? You won’t know until you watch it.

3. Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

A billionaire is killed on a trip on the very elegant Orient Express where Agatha Christie’s incredible character, Hercule Poirot, happens to be on board. Everyone else on the train is a suspect. But what’s the real motive? Is the victim worthy of any condolences? Is it a tale of redemption or revenge?

4. Murder Mystery (2019)

A failed New York detective and his wife go on a European Vacation to reignite the spark in their marriage. On the plane, they come across a chance to spend their time on a yacht, which leads to them being framed for the murder of an elderly billionaire. This movie is hilarious and the chemistry between Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston is to die for. If you haven’t watched it already, you’re missing out on some major fun.

5. Sherlock Holmes (2009)

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes always leads to some of the best whodunits out there. This movie is the much needed excitement we all need in our lives. It sees ritualistic killings occurring in London and although the culprit seems obvious, it gets weird. The movie is so worth the time, I mean who wouldn’t want to watch Robert Downey Jr. as Sherlock?

6. The Girl on the Train (2016)

Rachel Watson catches daily glimpses of a seemingly perfect couple, Scott and Megan, from her window of her train. Suddenly, Megan goes missing and Rachel seems to not remember something crucial. Unable to trust her own memory because of the claims of her ex-husband, the troubled Rachel begins her own investigation. Who is to blame? Emily Blunt does a great job portraying Rachel, but can we really believe what she has to say?

7. Gone Girl (2014)

A husband is the prime suspect of his wife’s disappearance and apparent murder, but things are definitely not what they appear to be. There are multiple jaw dropping twists throughout the story, the start will have you hooked and the ending will shock you.

8. Seven (1995)

A serial killer starts a seven deadly sins-themed murder spree and two detectives have to try and solve the case before he strikes again. Although Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman are great reasons to watch this movie, the plot doesn’t disappoint at all.

9. A Simple Favor (2018)

Two complete opposite mothers become friends, then one goes missing. The other mother begins the search to find her, all the while updating her vlog’s viewers about her findings and when the identity and the intentions of Blake Lively’s character are revealed, all of us are left in shock. This movie is terrifying and funny at the same time.

10. Zodiac (2007)

Robert Graysmith, a cartoonist by profession, finds himself obsessively thinking about the Zodiac killer. He uses his puzzle-solving abilities to get closer to the identity of the killer.

Plus, here are two upcoming murder mysteries to look forward to!

The post 10 Murder Mystery Movies To Marathon appeared first on The Nerd Daily.

Ever been stuck in that twilight zone where you’re in the mood to watch a decent movie but can’t quite find a bankable flick which might be more hit than miss? How about letting the stars be your guiding light if you can’t make up your mind?

After a tiring day (or sometimes in the middle of one), we just want to chill and unwind by watching something good with a tub of buttery popcorn by the side. But every once in a while, we’re already halfway through that popcorn and still unable to decide on that one movie that we’re sure we’ll enjoy. The vast array of entertainment on offer at online streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime doesn’t make it any easier for the indecisive mind.

Maybe the answer is written in the stars. I mean, if your zodiac sign can predict your love life and explain your weird mood swings, letting it determine which movie to watch is definitely worth a go. Leo’s being the Hollywood stars of the Zodiac, would absolutely love the Earth’s mightiest heroes who come together and fight off a threat to earth in The Avengers and a romantic Libran would love nothing more than a rom-com like Crazy, Stupid, Love.

Aries

Your Movie: The Matrix
Why? Ruled by the angsty planet Mars, a sci-fi or an action movie that keeps their mind running is a perfect match for their fiery personality. What’s better than the legendary 1999 cult classic, The Matrix? This sci-fi action film saw the iconic ‘bullet time’ effect conceived and created.

Taurus

Your Movie: Sideways
Why? The reliable, practical, sensual Taureans love to laze around and watch anything that would take their mind off reality. Sideways is a dark comedy film about a mismatched pair—a struggling writer and his friend who’s about to walk down the aisle—go on a trip to Santa Ynez Valley Wine Country. It’s a movie about two college roommates who take a wine-filled, sex-ridden road trip, and in the end, collide with reality.

Gemini

Your Movie: Psycho
Why? The intelligent, hyper-energetic, and inquisitive Gemini would enjoy nothing more than a good horror movie with a twisty plot. A psychological horror from 1960, Psycho is truly a masterpiece and will keep them riveted to wherever they’re sitting (which we all know is almost next to impossible).

Cancer

Your Movie: Coco
Why? Cancerians are traditional with a twist and are suckers for emotional sagas, or anything with a sheen of vintage charm. Coco is a soul-stirring movie about a boy who wants to be a musician. Filled with family values, history, tradition, and a lot of emotions, this movie is right up the alley of the softhearted Cancer.

Leo

Your Movie: The Avengers
Why? Leo’s are confident, passionate, warm-hearted, cheerful, and have an air of royalty about them. They need high entertainment value in the movies that they watch. The Avengers is a superhero based movie where the mightiest heroes on earth come together and fight off a common enemy is something that’ll immediately capture the interest of a Leo.

Virgo

Your Movie: Interstellar
Why? Typically analytical, kind, hardworking, and practical, Virgos tend to stay away from drama filled movies. They prefer watching science fiction or anything rooted in reality. Being creatures of logic, precision, and curiosity, Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar in which a team of explorers travel through a wormhole in space in an attempt to ensure humanity’s survival is perfect for them.

Libra

Your Movie: Crazy, Stupid, Love
Why? Librans are kind, gentle, and lovers of beauty, harmony, and peace, and love anything light-hearted and oozing with love. Crazy, Stupid, Love is one such movie that would completely disarm the charming Libran and leave them feeling warm and fuzzy inside.

Scorpio

Your Movie: Zodiac
Why? Scorpions are magnetic, mysterious, and have the ability to shock and surprise people in the best way possible. And just like their personality, they tend to have a thing for mysterious and scary movies! Which is why if you haven’t watched Zodiac, which tells the story of the manhunt for the Zodiac Killer, then in the words of the late Chester Bennington, what the hell are you waiting for?

Sagittarius

Your Movie: About Time
Why: Always on the move, these on-the-go adventurers have a lust for life. They would watch anything related to travel and lands far, far away. They may appear tough on the outside, but deep down inside they’re gentle and love romantic movies. About Time is the perfect movie which will satisfy them on both fantasy and romantic front.

Capricorn

Your Movie: Toy Story
Why? Although Capricorns are extremely determined, disciplined, responsible, and focused, what adds charm to their personality is that they’re secretly a goofball on the inside! And hence, they secretly love animated movies! A movie for them is a way of switching off from reality. What’s better than the all-time-favourite and the classic, Toy Story to keep the goat entertained!

Aquarius

Your Movie: Argo
Why? An Aquarius will never do anything that’s expected of them, and if they do end up watching a movie they’ll be intrigued by a real-life story of inspiration, history, art, or a thriller. Watch Argo, a historical drama based on the true story of the daring CIA rescue of Americans in Tehran during the 1979 hostage crisis.

Pisces

Your Movie: Eat Pray Love
Why? The calm, romantic, emotional, and mystical Pisces are the dreamers of the Zodiac! Eat Pray Love is a romantic comedy-drama about a woman who’s in an unhappy marriage and realises that her life needs to go in a different direction. After a painful divorce, she takes off on a round-the-world journey to “find herself”. This movie will resonate with a lot of fishes who’re trying to find themselves in this dog-eat-dog world.
