To ask your most scary horror film?

[ThingsthatgoBumpintheDay]

Just as the subject says, I’ve watched nearly all of them on Netflix. Really could do with some more suggestions. Thank you 😊

Severance even!

All of these suggestions are great. I recently enjoyed Smile.

Actual horror movie - V/H/S (especially the first one, and especially "Amateur Night"). Life-ruining not-a-horror - Threads.

I also wouldn't recommend "a serbian film" it's just sick and disturbing. I did make the mistake of watching it a few years ago and what has been seen cannot be unseen. And I've watched all the hostel films, human centipede films etc. They're not the same thing.

Another vote for Train to Busan. Utterly brilliant.

Oh yeah, human centipede 2 … if you’ve got the stomach for it 😂

Oh I just can’t watch anything involving torture, gore or sexual abuse. I prefer atmosphere in a horror and a sense of approaching dread 😬.

Recently watched a found footage film, Horror in the High Desert 2 which I found quite chilling, kind of a little like The Poughkeepsie Tapes, (I’d watched the first Horror in the High Desert, which is a little slow and with obviously amateur actors, but with a very unnerving finale). As a big horror fan I thought this low budget film was very effective.

There’s a new horror, The Outwaters due to be released in the UK soon, hopefully which is supposed to be utterly chilling. About 4 people on a hike in the Mojave Desert. I love any horror set in the America’s wilderness.

"A Tale of Two Sisters" - it's a South Korean film, and really unsettling. The original Pet Semetary is pretty creepy. Some of the Masters of Horror series are really good - in particular, John Carpenter's "Cigarette Burns" really spooked me.

The Terrifier - it’s about a clown, also ‘All Hallows’ eve’ which the character comes from originally

There was a film called 'Creep',set in the London Underground that I really liked. It was released in 2004,not to be confused with the film that was released in 2018,that goes by the same name.

The original Dutch movie The Vanishing ( Spoorloos ) is absolutely terrifying.
The American remake abysmal

Not for the faint hearted 😳

I couldn't even finish reading the Wiki page for The Serbian Film, what the actual fuck!

I had the misfortune of watching some of it about two years ago, naively not actually knowing much about it. It still haunts me to this day. I turned it off & I would never watch it again. That’s a film that definitely should be banned 😓

Excellent film 👌
Very creepy

Thanks for this amazing thread. I’ve got the house to myself for the weekend (VERY rare) so I’m going to watch Eden Lake with a glass of wine (or three). 🧡

So glad I made it! Enjoy!

Oh Eden Lake, which I really liked, reminds me of another British film I saw. Mum and Dad. Apparently very loosely based on Fred and Rose West. It's quite a shocker. But it's the whole setting of such horror in British suburbia that makes it scarey.

If you're into a more sci-fi version of Saw, try Cube. Three films.

Thanks, I was trying to remember the name of that one. I saw the original years ago & yes, it's one of those that stays with you. And it has no violence in it, IIRC. I'd say watch it, it's an incredible movie.

You’ve all made me want to watch Eden lake now! Is it like wrong turn or the hills have eyes?

I'm a hard core, hard to shock horror fan, but Eden Lake really freaked me out. Its the 'realness' of it. You could see something like that actually happening if you come across the wrong people at the wrong time.
