Someone recommend me something to watch.

Have amazon prime. And Netflix and ssshhh don't say anything but I can download stuff too.

I'm into horrors (have seen many of those recommended here Grin ) and psychological thrillers but will also settle for some kinda depressing/gritty drama

Anything really but cheesy romcoms and chick flicks..

Gileswithachainsaw · 17/12/2016 18:42

Oh no that's a series. You want a film. Let me find my remote.

Trimble was depressing but brilliant. Not a horror and not really a thriller.

Spotlight very good journalism thriller with sexy Ruffalo and some other eye candy.

Erm....

Gileswithachainsaw · 17/12/2016 18:44

Oh spotlight. Yes I've seen that. Very good!!!

Man in the High Castle is an alternate history thriller in which Hermany and Japan won WW2 and have split occupation of the US.

Set in the 50s/60s and focussed around a mystery and a splintered resistance movement. Very psychological and dark.

Best thing I saw all year and you have a whole series in hand with series 2 just starting now.

Manumission · 17/12/2016 18:47

Trumbo not Trimble.

Yes it was wasn't it? Good we share taste. I'll stick MitHC as my recommendation then Smile

Manumission · 17/12/2016 18:47

Germany not Hermany 🙄

Leatherboundanddown · 17/12/2016 18:47

Black Mirror does not need to be watched as a series each episode is a separate story entirely, it is really brilliant.

n0ne · 17/12/2016 18:50

My favourite horror of recent years is The Babadook - absolutely brilliant in a way you won't expect

Gileswithachainsaw · 17/12/2016 18:51

It's OK I'm pretty good at deciphering typosor id never understand what I've written either Grin

Well I know black mirror is on Netflix and the trailer for MITHC said amazon exclusive? Does that mean it's on amazon?

Thank you for the suggestion though SmileBrewCake

Filth it was on ch4 last week has James mcavoy in it v v V gritty I like Irvine Welsh books so loved it

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 17/12/2016 18:54

Krampus? It's a Christmas horror film. Surprisingly watchable I thought Xmas Wink.

ApocalypseNowt · 17/12/2016 18:57

Following with interest.

I am in the exact same position Smile

ApocalypseNowt · 17/12/2016 18:58

Hush on Netflix is worth a watch. Horror/home invasion film about a deaf woman.

Gileswithachainsaw · 17/12/2016 18:59

What's filth about.

Don't do Xmas movies Grin

I have to walk out when santa buddies gets put on..

More likely find me aliens bursting out chests and demons being exorcised than anything remotely heartwarming with a happy ending Grin

I also hated The Babadook so I shall stick my neck out and suggest The Keep. It's weird, and cut to buggery (original cut was 210 minutes, the theatrical release was only 96) but I bloody love it.

It's directed by Michael Mann, has a decent cast (Jürgen Prochnow, Ian McKellan, Gabriel Byrne) and a brilliant soundtrack by Tangerine Dream.

Gileswithachainsaw · 17/12/2016 19:00

Seen hush! Very good. Smile

Corrupt policeman with ishoos it smacks you about the head a bit but I enjoyed it quite graphic though

Gileswithachainsaw · 17/12/2016 19:02

I don't mind graphic... I've seen the human centipede...Grin

MrsJayy · 17/12/2016 19:05

See if you can find it you will enjoy it

Manumission · 17/12/2016 19:06

The Lives of Others and Jackie Brown are both on there. Have you seen those? Thrillers not horror but very good, both, in very different ways. Jackie Brown is Tarantino.

Manumission · 17/12/2016 19:11

Human centipede!?

OMG you're a bit more steel-stomached than you let on Grin
