8 Forgotten 90s Neo Noirs that Aged Perfectly
The 1990s are remembered as a blockbuster decade – sequels, spectacle, and pop-culture giants that still dominate nostalgia cycles. But beneath the hits was a quieter wave of ambitious, darker, and riskier movies that slipped through the cracks to become cult classics
In the 1990s, there was a short-lived but unforgettable subgenre that lit up the screen: the crime romance. From Quentin Tarantino and Tony Scott to John Dahl and Wong Kar-wai, these films burned bright — all neon lights, gun smoke, and doomed lovers — before vanishing by the turn of the century.
Here are eight forgotten 90s crime romances that still pack a punch, from cult classics to overlooked gems you need to see.
