2018 (so far) horror films (that I've seen) ranked:

1. Hereditary - Masterful and with only a few flaws (the ending), this is probably the best horror movie of the last decade.

*Searching - Not a horror film at all, but a great thriller for sure. One of the best films of the last several years.

2. A Quiet Place - A bit overrated out of the gate, but still a solid film. It takes punches early on.

3. The Nun - Disappointing at times, but it is carried by a great atmosphere and always ominous setting.

*Summer of 84: I don't really think this is a horror movie. It's more like a darker version of The Goonies or something. The banter is fun, but some characters lack.

4. Insidious: The Last Key: I'll probably get hate for it, but I viewed this more favorably than some. Great monster design and good enough story.

*Annihilation: I didn't see the hype, I guess. It's also probably not really a horror film. There are some good moments but it's mostly just odd.

5. Winchester: Another film with a strong setting and interesting concept. It doesn't always make sense.

6. Slender Man: Not a great use of the Slender Man property unfortunately. The studio became tied down with the PG-13 rating and it really showed.

7. Unfriended: Dark Web: Not as good as the first, which wasn't all that great either, but was decent. This one explored the concept further but this should be the end of this.

8. Truth or Dare: A strange concept but it held promise, but ultimately peed the bed when it came to delivering on it. Another stupid ending with the villain making shit up.

9. The Strangers: Prey at Night: I didn't see the first one, but this was stupid. I hope the first one wasn't as stupid as this was. One of the few films I truly have nothing positive to comment on.
