What's your favourite horror film?

[JorisBonson]

DH and I love horrors but seem to have exhausted Netflix etc - what's your favourite? Any hidden gems we might not have seen?

I don't do well with the Paranormal Activity style films but might be brave / give DH a laugh while I scream.

Candyman.

The Shining.

The Fog.

Poltergeist.

The Omen.

The originals of all of those, not the remakes.

[Astronaut8]

I have no suggestions as I’m a total wimp but when I watched Paranormal Activity I screamed my head off. It gave me sleep paralysis 😂😂

Hereditary is good.

The exorcist is my all time favourite.
The first Saw film is very good and I think Sinister is on Netflix, which is another favourite.

The conjouring series
The Descent

I liked the first 2 Paranormal then it got really silly towards the end.

[vampirethriller]

It Stains the Sand Red, zombies, it's on Amazon prime. I love the Romero zombie films as well.

[IHaveBrilloHair]

All of the Nightmare on Elm Street films, the first and third in particular.
No idea if they're available anywhere though.

[KurtWilde]

If you've got prime there's some excellent independent horror films on there.

[AuntMasha]

Probably in a minority, but I liked ‘Midsommar’. It’s both a horror and a break-up movie.

[AlfonsoTheTerrible]

Let the right one in (Swedish version).

[NerrSnerr]

Misery
Pet Semetary (I know the remake is on Netflix- I haven't seen it though).
The Scream movies

[JorisBonson]

I'm such a geek that I've seen pretty much all of these 🤦🏻‍♀️ keep em coming tho.

Get Out is amazing, one of the best films I've seen in years

[JorisBonson]

I liked it too @AuntMasha, really atmospheric

[Iwantmychairback]

Salam’s Lot
The Omen
Candyman

[MMM2]

IT.
Misery.
The Shining.

[VetOnCall]

The Conjuring and The Conjuring 2 are great.
The Cabin in the Woods is funny and quite cleverly done.
IT and IT Chapter 2
Pet Sematary
Doctor Sleep

If you like gory movies - The Descent, Hostel, Saw.

[Dunairbeanat]

30 days of night
From dusk til dawn
Near dark

I think there's a vampire theme going on.

[JorisBonson]

@Dunairbeanat not seen 30 days of night, will put it on the list! Dusk Til Dawn is brilliant.
