The Best Psychological Thrillers On Netflix Right Now

There is a dire lack of erotic thrillers on this list. But we're more than making up for that with the inclusion of "Wild Things," easily one of the most bananapants flicks the subgenre has to offer. Hitting the ground running, "Wild Things" begins with a scandal: two high school students from opposite ends of the social ladder, Kelly (Denise Richards) and Suzie (Neve Campbell), have accused their guidance counselor, Sam (Matt Dillon), of sexual assault. However, when Kelly and Suzie both admit on the stand to making the whole thing up, Sam saunters away with a multi-million-dollar defamation settlement. 

What should be a closed case of bruised teenage egos is soon revealed to be the first of many twists: the whole thing was a set-up. And the trio have every intention of taking their ill-gotten millions and running off into the Florida sunset. Preferably on a luxury yacht. Unfortunately for the gang, two nosy detectives (Kevin Bacon and Daphne Rubin-Vega) are hot on their trail. A bonkers film with a title to match, "Wild Things" has all the cheese and sleaze you want out of a '90s erotic thriller. Don't let that 63% Rotten Tomatoes score fool you, few thrillers are as delightfully thrilling as "Wild Things."

If you or anyone you know has been a victim of sexual assault, help is available. Visit the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network website or contact RAINN's National Helpline at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673).
