I really enjoyed this movie and haven't seen many like it, maybe Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer is similar, or even Maniac, though both are stretches. Can anybody recommend to me movies like Vengeance Is Mine. I know there are many foreign films I haven't seen and wouldn't know which ones are good anyways. Thanks.

Some possible films to check out:
Obvious newer film "Zodiac" by Fincher
Less obvious: "A Fugitive from the Past" though good luck finding it
"Castle of Sand"
Teshigahara "Pitfall," "The Woman in the Dunes," and "The Face of Another"
Melville's gangster films like "The Red Circle" and "Le Samourai" also cover similar existential ground -

Films that show a compulsive killer in a "tells his story" method
First there's the classic impulsive killer movie, "M" by Fritz Lang
American Psychonot one of my favorites but everybody else carps on it.
Honeymoon KillersTruffaut called it one of his fave flicks
TargetsBodonovich's breakout movie and probably Boris Karloff's greatest latter year performance.
Birdman of Alcatraztrue, only two murders committed, but it peels the psyche of the criminal and shows a side that compels the viewer to sympathize in spite of the character's first impression.
High and Lowmurder and kidnapping by an unrepentant mental case, seen from the viewpoint of the victims. A rare modern performance by Mifune. -
