Movies like Shutter Island?

Question

Are there any movies like Shutter Island, that keep you thinking about the movie long after you are done? I am not looking for same plotlines or anything, just movies that are very memorable because of their amazing storyline. Thanks!

Update:

I don't think Inception is a prequel to Shutter Island at all. The story is completely different. They do share the same actor, DiCaprio. But thanks for the suggestion. :)

I have watched it already and it is very good. Although personally I think it doesn't compare to Shutter Island.
