The Skeleton Key is massively underrated. It's probably one of the best twists I've seen in a horror movie so far. I would recommend everyone to watch it.
That face with eyes & mouth sewed (it's only a jumpscare & nightmare sequence not real) is one of the scariest scenes i've ever seen and everyone introducing it would definitely put that scene in the thumbnail
You know I had been wanting to see that for years & if I'm been honest i was disappointed..maybe I had built it up in my own mind,I don't know.. But I am going to go back & watch it again..I think with me I love the beginning of films,the middle & three quarters through & I usually find the ending not as good,like I said maybe I build to much up in my head..I mean I enjoyed so much of it..the actors were great.. Have a great day✌🏼✌🏼
It was really impressive what they did with the meager amount of actors. There was nothing particularly "cliche" about the movie, and that really impressed me
@@idksomeoneelsechoosemyythandle Just goes to prove that having a decent script and very capable actors makes up for having a limited budget. Ps have you seen *the Poughkeepsie tapes?*

Good movies, and I agree about your comments. I think also Salvage (2006) is pretty good movie considering low budget, also May (2002) is really bloody awesome, Starry Eyes (2014) a horror look into Hollywood magic, Absentia (2011) very scary indie horror, Contracted (2013) etc.
Thanks for the list. I highly recommend the queue app. It helps with finding what streaming service movies are on and with creating a queue of stuff to watch. I took the list you made and added it to my queue (except what I’ve seen)
This is a list of horror movies people generally don't talk about. And as much as I love it, The Thing doesn't belong here. _Everyone_ with any interest in horror has heard about that one. This is also true (to a lesser extent) about Event Horizon.
Agreed. Still waiting for an adaption of Mountains of Madness. There's been one in development hell for years. It's gone from James Cameron to Benicio Del Toro to several other directors. I just wish they'd get the damn thing made already.
Alot of people complain that ryan reynolds only plays the same character in every movie. but the moment he does actually play a different character, the same people wouldn't even try acknowledging his performance as a completely different character
I'm beyond glad that you guys brought light to Stage Fright, Detention and Freaky, all of them are hugely underrated horror films. I watch them every year for Halloween 😅
I'm so happy Ginger Snaps is on this list! It definitely doesn't get the praise it deserves, especially when it comes to its werewolf designs. The sequel was decent, but the prequel, as far as I'm concerned, is just fantastic as the original.
Every obsessive horror fan there is has seen ginger snaps by now. It’s almost impossible to not be a little letdown by it after all these years of hype surrounding it
@@kierankehoe2275 key word from your first sentence: obsessive. Not everyone is an obsessive horror fan, and Ginger Snaps is an independent Canadian movie. Not everyone who likes horror or even just werewolf movies will be aware of it, especially if they're new to to the genre or are just on the fringes of it.
It's a 'ripple effect' So, what does it mean? Well, it means something's going to happen... Something big... But then, something's always... about to happen.
Yesssss Pandorum is so underrated. It’s The Descent on a spaceship. - Triangle & Coherence can be watched as a double feature! They go so well together. I went to see Disturbing Behaviour at the cinema, I Love that movie. All cheerleaders die is a perfect double feature watch with Jennifer’s body. Ginger Snaps also goes well with Jennifer’s Body, or Wes Craven’s Cursed.
Same!! I could only ever remember there was a kid named Gavin, and in my head I always mistook him for being the same kid from American History X for some reason (Edward Norton's little brother) which explains why I couldn't figure out what movie I was trying to think of.
It's an extremely loose remake of The Stepford Children (1987). Troubled youth and tired parents move to small town, something is off about the people, and then the perfect robotic like children start to show their true colors and slowly snap... Go figure.
As a lifelong horror fan in my 40's, His House is literally the only movie I've ever turned off in my life for being TOO SCARY! So damn good, but I still have yet to finish it, lol.
Three of these movies have Katherine Isabelle in them. American Mary, Disturbing Behavior and Ginger Snaps. I love all three of them. And I have them on DVD. I especially love Ginger Snaps (I have GS 2 and 3 on DVD as well)
A few I love you recommend: - Laid to Rest (both movies. Chromeskull should be as famous as Jason. All practical effects) - Lovely Molly (brilliant psychological horror) - Adam Chaplin (low budget but incredibly well done, utterly bonkers, godly practical effects) - Taking of Deborah Logan (weird and creepy) - Platform (surreal genius; people trapped in a torture game)
My favourites are 1.The autophsy of jane Doe 2.Skeleton key 3.Martyss 4.Event Horizon 5.Insane 6.Jessabelle 7.The haunting of Emely rose 8.Colour.out of Space 9.Mercy 10.100 Feet
Another movie no one talks about is Possession of Michael King, very different to other possession movies. It's a found footage but it's actually really interesting and incredibly scary, I remember renting it out at Blockbuster and watched it just before bed (very bad mistake 😅). It's about a man named Michael King who recently lost his wife and gets this idea of proving if the paranormal actually exists (God and the Devil) but he learns the hard way and it's just really well done. He is a massive skeptic and instead of trying to prove the existence of God, he tends to lean towards the other way because demons are more forthcoming (apparently). It's really well done, the guy who plays Michael is a very talented actor and no one really talks about it 😢 I'm hoping it somehow blows up on Tik Tok so people actually talk about it more. Seems like one of those movies that were just never really popular unfortunately, it actually scared me more than other more popular horror films 😔 I love horror films and always looking for ones that truly do scare me. I'm definitely going to check out some of these on the list. Thank you for your video 😊❤
He really was. I was expecting Vince Vaughn as a girl to feel like Rob Schneider in The Hot Chick, but he was actually convincing at times. Like, it says something about him as an actor that it took me a couple of minutes into one scene in particular before I finally thought "you know, Vince Vaughn flirting with a teenage boy is actually kind of weird."
I introduced my gf to Freaky and movies like it. Totally Killer Happy Death Day Its A Wonderful Knife She's loved all of them so far, so if anyone knows of anymore movies like these, please let me know.
How can you say Ryan Reynolds did The Voices **before** he became a Hollywood star? He had already been acting professionally for 23 years. In 2014, he had already starred in Van Wilder, Waiting, Just Friends, Definitely Maybe, The Proposal, Buried, Safe House, Green Lantern, R.I.P.D., The Amityville Horror (2005), and Turbo. Yeah, some of them were duds, but they established him as being capable of leading a movie. Not to mention, when he wasn't doing those, he was showing up in small but noteworthy roles in movies like Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, Ted, Adventureland, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Smokin' Aces, Blade Trinity, and Dick. Hell, he had his first leading role in 1993's Ordinary Magic WHEN HE WAS ONLY 17. Sorry, for the rant, but The Voices is one of my favorite movies and I recommend it to people often because Marjane Satrapi is a great director while Reynolds fucking owns it.
U missed another great one. A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night. That one, under the shadow, his house and unsane are some of the best horror movies in recent years. My dad even said His house is the best horror movie he has seen in the last 10 or 20 years.
A Girl Walks Home At Night also features some of the best cat acting I've ever seen. Cat is so chill and looks like he's actively listening to everyone's dialogue.
Some actual good horror movies that no one ever talks about... 1. The Kindred (1987) 2. Dolls 3. The Slayer 4. Sorority House Massacre 5. Initiation (1984) 6. Scared Stiff 7. Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon 8. Ghost Story (1981) 9. Trick or Treat (1986) 10. A Bay of Blood 11. After Midnight (1989) 12. Slugs 13. Killing Spree 14. Grave Encounters 15.

Bloody Mallory is a hidden rhine stone;o) Woman, drag queen, telepathic child trio tries to save the pope from Ghouls, hysterical! Keeping with the controversial, Grabbers, Abyzou and Candy Land were fab, yet underrated!
I’m so glad you included His House, it is tremendous: utterly heartbreaking, on so many levels, not least how refugees are treated in the UK…just brilliant!
American Mary and The Endless are two of my absolute favorites. Gingersnaps also holds a special place in my heart as I was obsessed with it back in high school. Coherence is an awesome one but id consider it more sci-fi. Good picks!
@@thehorriblebright Ah you mean it's not in the spectrum. Right. But the colors in the spectrum ALSO only exist in the human mind...sorry for being Captain Smartypants but I think it is cool to appreciate that the color "red" is not a property of the "apple" but a property generated by our brain.
@@MikeWiest Yeah, but the original point still stands. Red is how our brains interpret a specific wavelength of light. But magenta is what happens when our brains can't make sense of two very different wavelengths from opposite ends of the spectrum and short-circuit. If those colors fully mixed without breaking our brains, they'd be a shade of yellow.
@b840 It's not that magenta breaks the brain, it's that the brain wants to estimate the reflectance of objects...which don't have to contain only one frequency. So "color" is how our brain represents a combination of frequencies... It's only strange if you think that a color should always be a single frequency...I'm just talking, not saying you're wrong! ps thanks for not calling me anything worse than Captain Smartypants!
I can confirm the whole "becoming desensitized to horror". I've been watching horror movies since I was two, so thirty-six years now. And yeah, horror movies don't scare me, if anything, I find them humorous.
I absolutely love your channel and had to subscribe! You have shown some wonderful picks that I have not seen, I love it because suspense/horror, and sci-fi are my favorite genres!!
Cry Wolf’s ending will either delight you or piss you off. I remember thinking it was fun but my best friend hating its ending. Blackcoat’s Daughter is a lot of fun though. Don’t waste your time with Detention.
wow starting with Unsane. That is incredibly effective and truly scary to watch. great list. American Mary, Triangle, Bad Taste, Ginger Snaps are all fantastic. The only ones I don't agree with are Underwater and The Endless. I couldn't get into those.
Subscribing to this channel has made me realize that there are very few horror and thriller movies I haven’t seen. I’m always searching for suggestions and I appreciate the nuggets I find from you guys 👍🏼
One you missed is House (1985) Another horror movie with William Katt which was about a haunted house...(no spoilers) and I believe had a sequel as well...
I saw a British horror in the mid 2000's on Netflix that featured a man who's wife thinks he's going insane because of the monsters only he sees. He has also sketched them. The movie begins with him having seperated from his wife, moving into his friends flat. Later when he's alone he begins seeing a humanoid creature stalking him from a distance and slowly moving closer. The film continues like this as he attempts to hide and barricade himself from things only he sees. I don't remember the name of the film and can't seem to find it.
His House left me genuinely paranoid in my own home, even with extremely thin walls. I was paranoid for about a week and a half. I normally don't, or even at the time didn't, get scared when it comes to horror movies as much, but it left me horrified for a good bit.
I'm pretty sure Ginger Snaps is a cult favourite and talked about all the time. Thank you, though, for some recommendations I actually hadn't heard of.
I have many of these movies and love them all. Ginger snaps had 2 sequels. If you can watch all 3 together , they tell a fascinating tale, Stage Fright and Anna and the Apocalypse are 2 of my favorite musicals. Have a great day
Coherence is insane and it makes me sad that very few people know about it. The lack of recognition reminds me of a movie that may not necessarily be seen as horror but definitely deserves way more than it gets is a movie called 'Ink'
13:05 Methinks you might have missed a major element here and a brilliant decision on the part of the filmmakers: the "color" in the short story was said to be unnatural and indescribable; something humans have never seen before. While that is impossible to actually portray on screen, they decided to use MAGENTA - not pink! - to represent the "color" as magenta is a man-made hue that exists outside the natural color spectrum. This was so smart, as your brain recognizes that color isn't normal subconsciously, which adds to the feelings of unease and dread while watching this film. It doesn't hurt that all the actors, especially Mr. Cage, turned in stellar performances in this one. I'm still not over how this was overshadowed by Hereditary, a far inferior film in my opinion.
Cry Wolf feels like it would fall right into the canon of teen horror that my friends and I saw during our uni stay in 1999-2003, so it's 2005 release was maybe a little too late.
A couple dozen theaters actually gave small electric shocks from the chairs during the Tingler. Its a shame we could never get away with that nowadays.
I watched Ginger Snaps for the first time last Monday . One of the reasons it took so long was the fact that it was a teenage film and I was 34 when it came out. I disliked it more than I thought I would. I didn't anticipate the dead dogs nor did I expect the writers to make a joke out of the owners finding their bodies. I'm an animal lover and turned off the movie when the first dog was discovered dead. Then a couple of hours later, I talked myself into turning it back on, thinking that this was the only dead dog scene. Silly me. There were a bunch of dead dogs and a pair of ugly sisters planning to kidnap,a rival's dog. And don't get me started on the rebel without a clue older sister who decided to kick a Rottweiler. This film will not be part of my Scream Factory Blu Ray set anytime soon.
Unsane is terrifying, it's a great movie with little to no jump scares, little to to blood but still manages to be terrifying. His House is one of the best horror movies in recent years. Under the Shadow is also great (although the english dubbing is not to good)
IMHO "Mandy" was (and still is) overhyped. Yes, the cinematography is really good. Yes, Nic Cage is astonishing (as almost always). But the plot? and that chainsaw? Talking about Cage's underappreciated movies "Pig" and even more "Willy's wonderland" are way better than Mandy.
Apparently Elijah Wood helped make Mandy possible by funding the project so it could be done professionally and have a bigger budget. And in the end work payed off and Mandy will be a cult classic for sure!
It’s funny, I really didn’t care for it the first time I saw it (think I may have flipped it on when I had a little too much to drink because it seemed SO incoherent). Just watched it again earlier this month though and I was all about it!
@Stang2023 it's entirely possible they have been searching for the name of the movie for a handful of years as in 2-3 or more, if so that would make the use of literal entirely correct and you're just being an ageist douche bag.
Good to get new homework for horror geeks like me❤. Such a shame Pandorum didn't get a sequel,I thought the void was seriously underrated Lovecraft body horror creature feature.
Yesssssss! The Blackcoats Daughter is my favourite A24 movie, I don’t get why others don’t talk about it. I would add In Fear to this list, if only for the twist at the end.
Ugh. The fact that you have Freaky ranked this high -- makes me question this whole list. GREAT premise. But totally blundered. They make Vince Vaughn a Mike Meyers, non-talking, urrrrrrg, murderer for 1/2 the film -- and then suddenly he's a wise-cracking killer, but you never get to have that wise-cracking fun sadistic killer moment. Total fail of a great premise.
American Mary is one of my favourites. Feels like feminine rage and feminine revenge. I also just love Katherine Isabelle. Ginger Snaps is and will always be my favourite.
The Skeleton Key is massively underrated. It's probably one of the best twists I've seen in a horror movie so far. I would recommend everyone to watch it.
Oh yes, i felt so bad for that girl. It was scary.
That face with eyes & mouth sewed (it's only a jumpscare & nightmare sequence not real) is one of the scariest scenes i've ever seen and everyone introducing it would definitely put that scene in the thumbnail
I didn't. I rooted for the "bad guys," I felt they got retribution for my ancestors.
@@ewarrior9776 LMAO
Wholeheartedly agree. I watched it few years ago and the ending is literally embeded into my mind.
*The Autopsy of Jane Doe* is criminally under-rated.
You know I had been wanting to see that for years & if I'm been honest i was disappointed..maybe I had built it up in my own mind,I don't know..
But I am going to go back & watch it again..I think with me I love the beginning of films,the middle & three quarters through & I usually find the ending not as good,like I said maybe I build to much up in my head..I mean I enjoyed so much of it..the actors were great..
Have a great day✌🏼✌🏼
@@skullrose8985 Just out of curiosity did you watch the trailer before watching the movie, because a lot of movies are ruined by that eg. Abigail 2024
I agree!
It was really impressive what they did with the meager amount of actors. There was nothing particularly "cliche" about the movie, and that really impressed me

Good movies, and I agree about your comments. I think also Salvage (2006) is pretty good movie considering low budget, also May (2002) is really bloody awesome, Starry Eyes (2014) a horror look into Hollywood magic, Absentia (2011) very scary indie horror, Contracted (2013) etc.
Black Rainbow is on Tubi!
thanks man youre the real MVP
Thanks for the list. I highly recommend the queue app. It helps with finding what streaming service movies are on and with creating a queue of stuff to watch. I took the list you made and added it to my queue (except what I’ve seen)
I loved American Mary! Katherine Isabelle is so underrated, I have loved her ever since I saw Ginger Snaps which is also horribly underrated!
Ginger Snaps is amazing, main reason I got into doing homemade gore
Glad to hear Katherine Isabelle praise; along with what you've mentioned, I liked her in Chris Nolan's "Insomnia" and also in the "Hannibal" TV show.
I love it. It's one of my favourite body horrors.
yeah, she is great also she is in freddy vs jason.
AGREED.
"Triangle" is one I truly recommend. It's a real gem.
it was soooooooooooo stressful. but very good
Agreed I really love it
The fact it makes more sense in a rewatch is so good
It felt super low budget . but the acting and the script were AAA
Very well done. One of my favorites.
My dear departed mom saw the Tingler movie with the effect on the seats, she said it was terrifying.
I'm sorry for your loss! May the gods watch over her, you and your family!
Wow that must have been an awesome experience for the time. May your mother rest in peace. 🕊️
"The Autoposy of Jane Doe," "The Thing (1982), "Stir of Echoes," "Event Horizon," etc.
This is a list of horror movies people generally don't talk about. And as much as I love it, The Thing doesn't belong here. _Everyone_ with any interest in horror has heard about that one. This is also true (to a lesser extent) about Event Horizon.

“The Autopsy of Jane Doe” is my absolute favorite.
@aplit It's awesome. Have you seen "The Possession of Hannah Grace?" It's similar, but with its own unique story. It's creepy af.
@@shaftomite007 Thanks.
The Ginger Snaps Trilogy is a must watch for any Horror fan. All three are fantastic.
I loved The Void! Awesome creature design with some really good suspense.
I thought it was ass 🤷♂️
I loved that movie. Wish there were more like it.
The Color Out of Space is so amazing and underrated! We need more of Lovecraft’s stories put on the silver screen!!!
Agreed. Still waiting for an adaption of Mountains of Madness. There's been one in development hell for years. It's gone from James Cameron to Benicio Del Toro to several other directors. I just wish they'd get the damn thing made already.
@@josebro352 Last I heard, it's not going to happen. At least, not that attempt, anyway.
Meh. Lovecraft is massively overrated. It's trite.
@@abebuckingham8198 I don't think he's overrated at all. His work is very hallucinatory and a bit arcane. Especially Dreams in the Witch House.

Vince Vaughn is amazing in Freaky and it pairs perfectly with both happy death day movies
He really was. I was expecting Vince Vaughn as a girl to feel like Rob Schneider in The Hot Chick, but he was actually convincing at times. Like, it says something about him as an actor that it took me a couple of minutes into one scene in particular before I finally thought "you know, Vince Vaughn flirting with a teenage boy is actually kind of weird."
Vince Vaughn has some serious range and he doesnt get credit for it hes one of my favorite actors ever
I introduced my gf to Freaky and movies like it.
Totally Killer
Happy Death Day
Its A Wonderful Knife
She's loved all of them so far, so if anyone knows of anymore movies like these, please let me know.
I LOVE The Skeleton Key!! So good!! Such a twist that you don't see coming for sure but my Lord is it good!
Voices is SO good! Shot and edited so well. The cat and dog are the best part.
Underwater needs a series. I really enjoyed that one! Has anyone else ever had that deep sea phase?
How can you say Ryan Reynolds did The Voices **before** he became a Hollywood star? He had already been acting professionally for 23 years. In 2014, he had already starred in Van Wilder, Waiting, Just Friends, Definitely Maybe, The Proposal, Buried, Safe House, Green Lantern, R.I.P.D., The Amityville Horror (2005), and Turbo. Yeah, some of them were duds, but they established him as being capable of leading a movie. Not to mention, when he wasn't doing those, he was showing up in small but noteworthy roles in movies like Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, Ted, Adventureland, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Smokin' Aces, Blade Trinity, and Dick. Hell, he had his first leading role in 1993's Ordinary Magic WHEN HE WAS ONLY 17.
Sorry, for the rant, but The Voices is one of my favorite movies and I recommend it to people often because Marjane Satrapi is a great director while Reynolds fucking owns it.

@@MR-rb9lp I've been on the lookout for The Kindred to appear on some outlet for decades!
Love the uncut version of Ghost Story.
Bloody Mallory is a hidden rhine stone;o) Woman, drag queen, telepathic child trio tries to save the pope from Ghouls, hysterical! Keeping with the controversial, Grabbers, Abyzou and Candy Land were fab, yet underrated!
I’m so glad you included His House, it is tremendous: utterly heartbreaking, on so many levels, not least how refugees are treated in the UK…just brilliant!
Literally the only movie I've ever turned off for being TOO SCARY!
So damn good! Sleeper masterpiece.
Night of The Demons 1988 is a profoundly underrated horror movie that nobody ever talks about.
One of my favorites
@@hoodchic4635 Mine too! Great music in that movie also.
THE LAZERUS EFFECT!!!!! I LOVE THAT MOVIE SO MUCH AND IT NEEDS MKRE CREDIT!!!
The Endless and Resolution are two AMAZING movies!! Everybody go watch both. I'd suggest The Endless first then Resolution.
The Voices is so underrated! Great movie! All these are quite good movies.
American Mary and The Endless are two of my absolute favorites. Gingersnaps also holds a special place in my heart as I was obsessed with it back in high school. Coherence is an awesome one but id consider it more sci-fi. Good picks!
Just a slight correction: the colour in "colour out of space" is magenta. You know, the colour that only exists in the human mind.
All colors only exist in the mind! 😊
@@MikeWiest OK, Captain Smartypants, it's not part of the visible spectrum of light. Detailed enough for you?
@@thehorriblebright Ah you mean it's not in the spectrum. Right. But the colors in the spectrum ALSO only exist in the human mind...sorry for being Captain Smartypants but I think it is cool to appreciate that the color "red" is not a property of the "apple" but a property generated by our brain.
@@MikeWiest Yeah, but the original point still stands. Red is how our brains interpret a specific wavelength of light. But magenta is what happens when our brains can't make sense of two very different wavelengths from opposite ends of the spectrum and short-circuit. If those colors fully mixed without breaking our brains, they'd be a shade of yellow.
@b840 It's not that magenta breaks the brain, it's that the brain wants to estimate the reflectance of objects...which don't have to contain only one frequency. So "color" is how our brain represents a combination of frequencies... It's only strange if you think that a color should always be a single frequency...I'm just talking, not saying you're wrong! ps thanks for not calling me anything worse than Captain Smartypants!
I can confirm the whole "becoming desensitized to horror". I've been watching horror movies since I was two, so thirty-six years now. And yeah, horror movies don't scare me, if anything, I find them humorous.
I was just looking up how to spell "Pyewacket" before you got to it. It makes a nice double feature with "The Blackcoat’ s Daughter".
Nice list👍
I absolutely love your channel and had to subscribe! You have shown some wonderful picks that I have not seen, I love it because suspense/horror, and sci-fi are my favorite genres!!
Though many of these are indeed very good movies, I thought Underwater was above and beyond - nearly attaining "Alien" status. Very well done :)
NICE!! Pyewacket is an all time favorite !
Cry Wolf’s ending will either delight you or piss you off. I remember thinking it was fun but my best friend hating its ending. Blackcoat’s Daughter is a lot of fun though. Don’t waste your time with Detention.
Saw Ginger Snaps in theatre and absolutely loved it. 100% recommend.
wow starting with Unsane. That is incredibly effective and truly scary to watch. great list. American Mary, Triangle, Bad Taste, Ginger Snaps are all fantastic. The only ones I don't agree with are Underwater and The Endless. I couldn't get into those.
i waited for ginger snaps and it being number 1 did not disappoint
I've never seen Ginger Snaps but I've heard it's a great film. Doesn't it have the girl who played young Beverly Marsh in IT in it?
@@josebro352 yup
Honestly, I thinking The Haunting of Julia (a.k.a. Full Circle) belongs here. I am referring the 1970s version with Mia Farrow.
The Tingler used to come on tv every so often when I was a kid. I really loved that movie.
It's also the first movie to depict an LSD "trip".
Subscribing to this channel has made me realize that there are very few horror and thriller movies I haven’t seen. I’m always searching for suggestions and I appreciate the nuggets I find from you guys 👍🏼
One you missed is House (1985) Another horror movie with William Katt which was about a haunted house...(no spoilers) and I believe had a sequel as well...
Pandorum is a great film; I don't know why more people haven't seen it. I've watched it several times: great monsters and stays tense throughout
Agreed, it was an awesome movie. Especially the part when they are in the corpse soup, sooo nasty, just watching it made me want to throw up..
The Skeleton Key! OMFG. Absolutely terryfying! Don't miss it!
I would add "Excess Flesh", "Autopsy of Jane Doe", "Grace", "Bite", "Jessabelle" and "Contracted".
Ginger Snaps being #1 made my night 😍. This is my favorite movie of all time.
American Mary & Skeleton Key are ones I've seen & they are Fantastic. SO Disturbing but that's totally the point. All these are Super movies
I saw a British horror in the mid 2000's on Netflix that featured a man who's wife thinks he's going insane because of the monsters only he sees. He has also sketched them.
The movie begins with him having seperated from his wife, moving into his friends flat.
Later when he's alone he begins seeing a humanoid creature stalking him from a distance and slowly moving closer.
The film continues like this as he attempts to hide and barricade himself from things only he sees. I don't remember the name of the film and can't seem to find it.
Skeleton Key and Triangle were both great!!!
His House left me genuinely paranoid in my own home, even with extremely thin walls. I was paranoid for about a week and a half. I normally don't, or even at the time didn't, get scared when it comes to horror movies as much, but it left me horrified for a good bit.
I'm pretty sure Ginger Snaps is a cult favourite and talked about all the time. Thank you, though, for some recommendations I actually hadn't heard of.
I have many of these movies and love them all. Ginger snaps had 2 sequels. If you can watch all 3 together , they tell a fascinating tale, Stage Fright and Anna and the Apocalypse are 2 of my favorite musicals. Have a great day
Coherence is insane and it makes me sad that very few people know about it. The lack of recognition reminds me of a movie that may not necessarily be seen as horror but definitely deserves way more than it gets is a movie called 'Ink'
Another very good film. :)
13:05 Methinks you might have missed a major element here and a brilliant decision on the part of the filmmakers: the "color" in the short story was said to be unnatural and indescribable; something humans have never seen before. While that is impossible to actually portray on screen, they decided to use MAGENTA - not pink! - to represent the "color" as magenta is a man-made hue that exists outside the natural color spectrum. This was so smart, as your brain recognizes that color isn't normal subconsciously, which adds to the feelings of unease and dread while watching this film.
It doesn't hurt that all the actors, especially Mr. Cage, turned in stellar performances in this one. I'm still not over how this was overshadowed by Hereditary, a far inferior film in my opinion.
Cry Wolf feels like it would fall right into the canon of teen horror that my friends and I saw during our uni stay in 1999-2003, so it's 2005 release was maybe a little too late.
Same for Disturbing Behaviour, all the recognisable themes and cast but maybe a little too early?
A couple dozen theaters actually gave small electric shocks from the chairs during the Tingler. Its a shame we could never get away with that nowadays.
Sooo true. I always wondered why people don't talk about Ginger Snaps. It made me question my taste in horror. Glad to see I wasn't alone!
I watched Ginger Snaps for the first time last Monday . One of the reasons it took so long was the fact that it was a teenage film and I was 34 when it came out. I disliked it more than I thought I would. I didn't anticipate the dead dogs nor did I expect the writers to make a joke out of the owners finding their bodies. I'm an animal lover and turned off the movie when the first dog was discovered dead. Then a couple of hours later, I talked myself into turning it back on, thinking that this was the only dead dog scene. Silly me. There were a bunch of dead dogs and a pair of ugly sisters planning to kidnap,a rival's dog. And don't get me started on the rebel without a clue older sister who decided to kick a Rottweiler. This film will not be part of my Scream Factory Blu Ray set anytime soon.
I got to see the Tingler at a Halloween revival in Berkeley, CA a few decades ago. Totally fun!
Surprised that Upgrade wasn't on the list. Movie was very good and underappreciated.
All they had to do in Coherence was stay in the house and there would be no movie lol
Another great list, especially love that ‘Triangle’ is here. And ‘Pyewacket’ too - both of these films are worth a watch!
I’ve seen a lot of these films, it’s a great list, well put together 😎
Will be checking out the ones I’ve not watched yet
Well done! 👍
Which of these are available for streaming and on which platforms
I’d add 1984’s Star Crystal to this list. It takes the “killer alien on a spaceship” and adds a very unexpected twist to it. It’s a great watch.
Dont listen was a very surprising joy. Didnt expect much but the final moments of the last act were great
The less you know about "Triangle" going in, the better. It's easily one of the best B movies in the last 20 years.
Shoutout for "The Beast Within", a 80's era horror movie directed by Phillipe Mora..the movie monster was actually portrayed by the lead actor.
Unsane is terrifying, it's a great movie with little to no jump scares, little to to blood but still manages to be terrifying.
His House is one of the best horror movies in recent years. Under the Shadow is also great (although the english dubbing is not to good)
“Mandy” didn’t get enough love,but maybe I missed the hype?🤔
It didnt get enough love that movie is really something different and special thats seriously elevated by Nic Cage.
IMHO "Mandy" was (and still is) overhyped. Yes, the cinematography is really good. Yes, Nic Cage is astonishing (as almost always). But the plot? and that chainsaw?
Talking about Cage's underappreciated movies "Pig" and even more "Willy's wonderland" are way better than Mandy.
Mandy got all the hype when it premiered at film fedtivals then went to Shudder. Panos Cosmatos is the man!
Apparently Elijah Wood helped make Mandy possible by funding the project so it could be done professionally and have a bigger budget. And in the end work payed off and Mandy will be a cult classic for sure!
It’s funny, I really didn’t care for it the first time I saw it (think I may have flipped it on when I had a little too much to drink because it seemed SO incoherent). Just watched it again earlier this month though and I was all about it!
OMG THANK YOU!!!! I've been trying to find the name of Pandorum for LITERAL YEARS
@Stang2023 it's entirely possible they have been searching for the name of the movie for a handful of years as in 2-3 or more, if so that would make the use of literal entirely correct and you're just being an ageist douche bag.
Both Ginger Snaps and American Mary have a very special place in my heart!
Hills Run Red doesn't get nearly the love it deserves. It hits so many checkboxes for the slasher genre.
Ginger Snaps is literally talked about all the time. I can't escape hearing about that movie. People are largely obsessed with it.
Good to get new homework for horror geeks like me❤. Such a shame Pandorum didn't get a sequel,I thought the void was seriously underrated Lovecraft body horror creature feature.
Anna and the apocalypse, Dead snow, Attack of the lederhosen zombies and Killer sofa. All classics.
#21 RUN is one of the films that had the misfortune of having the release date around the time of the pandemic.
Yesssssss! The Blackcoats Daughter is my favourite A24 movie, I don’t get why others don’t talk about it. I would add In Fear to this list, if only for the twist at the end.
Ugh. The fact that you have Freaky ranked this high -- makes me question this whole list. GREAT premise. But totally blundered. They make Vince Vaughn a Mike Meyers, non-talking, urrrrrrg, murderer for 1/2 the film -- and then suddenly he's a wise-cracking killer, but you never get to have that wise-cracking fun sadistic killer moment. Total fail of a great premise.
The voices is so good especially if you watch it now. It’s unnervingly funny
American Mary was incredible, seen it many times. She is an amazing actor and the story is so good! Also love the Soska sisters ❤
American Mary is one of my favourites. Feels like feminine rage and feminine revenge. I also just love Katherine Isabelle. Ginger Snaps is and will always be my favourite.
The Void freaked me out!! Especially near the end
All Cheerleaders Die is such an underrated movie.
Oh my gosh! My late-husband used to go on and on about The Tingler, lol. It scared him so much when he was a child. I guess I should watch it.
We Go On (2016) is a movie I never heard of and watched recently, should absolutely be seen by more people.
The Voices is SO GOOD
Not sure if you are including TV series, but Generation Z (UK Channel 4) has great acting and turns almost every horror trope
Coherence was surprisingly enjoyable!
