I'm bored, I want some names of good movies to rent today. I like Psychothrillers, thrillers, horror (not to gory)...
Any ideas?

This one I saw recently and it scared the living hell out of me, and at the same time i found it to be rather intellectually stimulating-
Audition (1999) by Takashi Miike
Plot Summary: A lonely Japanese widower whose son is planning to move out of the house soon expresses his sadness to a friend and fellow film producer, who becomes inspired to hold an audition for a non-existent film so that the widower can select a new potential bride from the resulting audition pool. The widower ultimately becomes enamored with and fascinated by one particular young woman...but first impressions can often be horribly wrong....
