Films Similar to After Hours (1985) - One Long, Crazy List

"Out of Getting Gertie's Garter, you can have an After Hours."
- Martin Scorsese

I've compiled a chronological list consisting of various films that are comparable to or reminiscent of Martin Scorsese's After Hours (1985), according to film critics, IMDb/Letterboxd users, and others (links to sources in notes).

I'm always seeking films with an "After Hours" feel (precursors, contemporaries, subsequent variations), so suggestions are welcome.
