13) FIGHT CLUB

Fight Club was a unique take on traditional mystery movies as it used the concept of an unreliable narrator. The central mystery was the person who was narrating the events. A number of new techniques like ‘subliminal flashbacks’ were used to keep the audience engaged. The movie broadened the scope of mysteries from the usual crime-solving genre to psychological thrillers. It has since then become an inspiration for movies like Black Swan.
