Perfume: The Story of a Murderer (2006)

In 18th-century France, young orphan Jean-Baptiste Grenouille (Ben Wishaw) discovers his incredible talent for discerning scents, quickly turning him into one of the country’s finest perfumers. With his acute sense of smell, Grenouille becomes fixated on capturing an elusive aroma: the scent of young womanhood. His obsession with bottling the perfect scent takes a dark turn when he begins to murder young women to preserve their essence. As his obsession slowly consumes him, Grenouille grapples with the horrifying consequences of his actions.

American Psycho (2000)

Wall Street’s golden boy hides a murderous secret. Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale) is a handsome investment banker whose increasingly brutal fantasies slowly bleed into his reality. Bateman successfully hides his psychopathic ego from his co-workers and friends, toeing the line between his lavish lifestyle and murderous urges. But how far will Bateman go, and how much can he get away with? American Psycho is a chilling satire on shallow consumerism, yuppie culture, and the emptiness behind the obsessive pursuit of wealth.

The Midnight Meat Train (2008)

Desperate for a shot to earn him a spot at a coveted art gallery, New York photographer Leon Kauffman (Bradley Cooper) decides to pursue darker subject matter. But his obsession with the macabre takes a horrifying turn when he crosses paths with a sadistic serial killer who stalks late-night subway commuters, leaving a trail of butchered victims in his wake. Consumed by morbid fascination, Leon delves into the case, only to find the police dismissive of his claims. All alone, Leon must race to expose the killer before he claims another victim.

Confronting a Serial Killer (2021)

Confronting a Serial Killer is a five-episode series about the astonishing true-crime story of acclaimed author Jillian Lauren and Sam Little, the most prolific serial killer in American history. After Little confesses to dozens of unsolved murders, Lauren attempts to understand his motives and bring justice to his forgotten victims. But to dig deeper inside the mind of a serial killer, Lauren must delve into her own buried trauma. 

GrindHouse: Death Proof (2007)

Quentin Tarantino pays homage to exploitation films of the 70s with Death Proof, an action thriller that follows Hollywood stuntman Mike (Kurt Russell). Mike harbors a dark secret: He stalks and murders young women with his indestructible, modified vehicles. He’s set his sights on a group of fierce women, including real-life stuntwoman Zoe Bell (Uma Thurman’s double in Kill Bill). This time, he might have bitten off more than he can chew. In a showdown that promises to be unlike any other, Death Proof is a must-watch for slasher fic and Tarantino fans out there.
