A Murder at the End of the World breathes fresh air into the “whodunnit” “murder mystery” thriller genre. If detective-based murder mysteries are your thing and you’re done with this show, then you could check out the following movies and TV shows that offer unique detective stories.
All movies and TV shows similar to A Murder at the End of the World
1) Glass Onion & Knives Out
Obviously, the first project that should come to anyone’s mind reading the synopsis of A Murder at the End of the World should be Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery. Similar to the latest series, Rian Johnson’s movie also features a unique detective, Benoit Blanc, who gets invited to a Billionaire’s retreat to solve a murder that takes place right in front of their eyes. That’s pretty much what happens in A Murder at the End of the World, as well.
In addition to Glass Onion, one should also watch Benoit Blanc’s original movie, Knives Out. In it, he investigates the murder of a reputable crime novelist, Harlan Thrombey, who is mysteriously found dead after his 85th birthday celebrations.
2) Sherlock
All seasons of Sherlock showcase the world’s greatest detective solving the toughest modern-day murder mystery cases in ways that the viewers couldn’t have imagined. While Sherlock may not involve high-tech gadgets, it does take the story to remote locations a few times.
3) Based on a True Story
This series follows Ava, a person who truly relishes watching crime dramas. But when a serial killer kills a young woman in her neighborhood, she uses the abilities and skills she gathered watching crime-based content to catch the murderer, offering viewers another unique detective story!
4) Luther
The series follows homicide detective John Luther. With his highly unconventional methods and a knack for getting inside the minds of murderers, we see him solving a bunch of difficult cases across multiple seasons. The show might feel different from A Murder at the End of the World, but it finds a commonality by presenting another unorthodox detective.
5) True Detective
On a list of murder mystery titles, this highly-rated anthology series certainly has to be included. Across its three seasons, it brings multiple dark and twisted homicide cases to life, which are solved by several intriguing policemen and detectives.
Murder on the Orient Express, Death on the Nile, and Only Murders in the Building are a few other movies and TV shows you could look into if you love A Murder at the End of the World.
