If you enjoyed Netflix’s ‘Thursday Murder Club’, a murder mystery that skips the dark twists and heavy gore in favor of a lighter, more playful tone, then this list is for you. Here are five more thrillers that don’t take themselves too seriously, sometimes even leaning into the silly, but above all remain highly entertaining.
All of these films are available on Netflix.
1. Murder Mystery: This is a totally silly but fun one! A globe-trotting, yacht‑based whodunit featuring Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston as a mismatched married duo who after a chance flight encounter, find themselves solving a billionaire’s murder in glamorous Riviera style.
2. 7 Women and a Murder: In this Italian crime-comedy, seven women are locked in a mansion with a dead patriarch. Now they must sift through secrets, motives, and hidden agendas to uncover who killed the man of the house.
3. Knives Out: Probably a bit of ‘duh’ suggestion, but if you still haven’t seen this high-budget murder mystery that boasts a solid ensemble cast, go ahead and stream it! But we wouldn’t recommend the sequel (Glass Onion).
4. Monica O My Darling: This Indian neo-noir dark comedy is a zany, corporate murder mystery packed with plenty of twists and some good Bollywood songs. A secretary’s affair spirals into a murder plot, with plenty of retro flair, sharp dialogue, and office politics gone wild.
5. Murder Mubarak: When a trainer is murdered at Delhi’s elite club, a sharp detective (played by Pankaj Tripathi) dives into a comically twisted mystery involving the city’s ultra-rich, with some social satire on the side.
That’s a wrap on the list. Check our YouTube podcast out and subscribe to it. It’s embedded below.
