Recommend scary (i.e. jump scare - not gore) film on Netflix or Prime?

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend me some really good scary films on Netflix or Prime? Or even not on those, as I could search EBay/Amazon.

I'm not into gore (though I could ignore it if the rest of the film was really good). I'm looking for suspense, jump-scares etc. Every few months I try to search for these things but hardly ever find anything. It's that time of the year when I'd like to settle down in front of the fire with the cat, turn off the lights and cower under a blanket :)

If you want a jumpy fun film look for Host on Amazon.

It's a ouija board theme film filmed on zoom in lockdown style. It's jumpy but super fun and not gory.

Not a movie but I'm currently working through American Horror Story and I'm at Roanoke (S6?), admittedly I'm a wuss but I've jumped a few times so far!

The woman in Black on Prime
Crimson peak on Netflix. Both creepy, scary gorgeous, big Gothic creepy house type films. Crimson peak has loads of snow and is so suitable for this time of year, we always watch it at Christmas!

I've seen Hush - that's exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for :)

In Fear on Prime. Very dark and jumpy, virtually no gore. Relies on atmosphere and plot instead of anything bloody.

Insidious, the conjuring and sinister.

Under the Shadows - a somewhat unlikely brilliant horror film.
On Netflix
