The 3 Best Thrillers Streaming On Peacock This June
Thrillers remain one of the most popular movie genres for a reason.
Delighting, surprising, and unwaveringly entertaining us with their narrative subjects and largely ambiguous main characters, thrillers can prove to be one of the most challenging (and rewarding) films audiences have the pleasure of sitting down to watch. Fortunately, there are plenty of fantastic thriller options currently streaming on Peacock, from alluring romantic dramas to neo-noir murder mysteries.
Memento (2000)
Leave it to Christopher Nolan to think of a movie as completely off-the-walls as Memento. Like almost all of the director’s recent work, Memento hinges heavily on a nonlinear narrative storyline, starting from its chronological ending and proceeding up to its very first chapter. A neo-noir thriller that takes its amnesia-laden premise to extraordinary heights, Memento might take a few viewings to fully understand, but the attention and time audiences invest into this 2000 masterpiece is more than worth the effort.
Black Bag (2025)
Among the most exciting releases of 2025 yet, Black Bag serves as yet another remarkable entry in director Steven Soderbergh’s prolific output of films. A sleek, stylish, endlessly well-crafted spy film with plenty of Hitchcockian intrigue, Black Bag ingeniously melds mystery with elements of a romantic thriller, paving the way to an indelible drama you simply have to see to believe.
Get Out (2017)
When it first debuted in early 2017, it’s safe to say Get Out took literally every viewer by surprise. Though initially known for his comedic performances on Key & Peele, Jordan Peele forever established himself as a horror legend with Get Out, cementing himself in the same ranks as Wes Craven, John Carpenter, or Guillermo del Toro before him. An intriguing, disturbing, endlessly rewatchable thriller with a sharply comic edge to it, Get Out is among the single greatest films of the 21st century yet, standing alongside other modern horror classics like Hereditary, The Babadook, and The Conjuring.
