Current Events > October's a week away. I need your horror movie recommendations CE.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Fill me up.

Night of the creeps
Slaughter high
Pieces
Cannibal ferox
Dead alive

Sweet Home

It Follows
They Look Like People
The Invisible Man (2020)
Vivarium

Frankenhooker and Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers double feature

My favorite horror movies from last year were Barbarian and Fresh. Barbarian should be on Max and Fresh is on Hulu. Phenomenal films with great plot twists that made for very fun experiences.

Havent seen too many that were released this year but hopefully that will change this upcoming month.

I don't really watch Horror, so Nope and The Lighthouse are all I can provide.

Demonic 1 and 2

If you have Hulu, last night i watched

No One Will Save You

About an alien home invasion. Lady is in her house at night and aliens break in.

I saw an ad for that the other day, it looked interesting. Might watch it, how are the jump scares? Cant stand movies with lots of cheap jump scares (recent-ish example: Smile) so I might skip it if so.

V/H/S 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 (caps)

Hush is a very tense movie. I liked it a lot.

If you're into Indie Horror "It Follows" is a must watch.

Also Scream 1 is a yearly rewatch for me.

deep rising is the best horror movie of all time

I didn't think the jump scares were too bad. A lot of times you first see the aliens in shadows in the distance trying to sneak up slowly on the main character.

The Serpent and the Rainbow is classic 80s horror movie.

Haitian voodoo and zombies make for a good one.

Halloween Reanimated

The Human centipede.

Sinister.

Thanks everyone for the recommendations so far. I'll go through the posts tomorrow.

Galaxy of Terror
Life Force
All three Alien films, if you for some reason haven't seen them.

Cooties
Dead Alive
Ernest Scared Stupid

Jeez nobody recommends qualla instead of cheap jumpscare committee-driven bog-standard crap ?

The VVitch
The Blackcoat.s Daughter
The Hole in the Ground
It Comes At Night

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Sorry I missed that line. Yes thats a quality recommendation indeed

The only horror movies worth a damn are those doubling as comedies.

I'm going through The Conjuring "universe" movies at the moment.

So far have watched 1 and 2 and Annabelle.

Annabelle felt like the weakest of the bunch so far. Enjoyable though

In the last couple years, I've starting making horror movie lists and seeing how many of the movies I can get through each October. My lists are movies I've either never seen or saw once back in high school and have nearly forgotten.

This year's list:

Buffy the Vampire Slayer(movie)
Once Bitten

Sleepaway Camp 1
Evil Dead (2013)
Children of the Corn 2
Children of the Corn 3
Alien 3
House of 1000 Corpses
The Devil's Rejects
3 from Hell
Lost Boys
Poltergeist

Last year's movies:
Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein
Alien
Aliens
Beetlejuice
The Conjuring
Event Horizon
The Fly (1986)
Hocus Pocus
The Slumber Party Massacre

Smile has a couple of great jump scares, although they put one in the trailer so dont watch that.

Jump scares are fine if theyre done well.

Also it's not a movie but Marianne on Netflix. It's a french horror series. Has some of the creepiest atmosphere and well crafted jump scares I've come across.

I certainly haven't seen that much 80s horror movies. I know about Slaughter High from RedLetterMedia's Best of the Worst.

Sweet Home

This a South Korean mini-series? Never heard of it. Have liked a good portion of the South Korean horror movies that I've seen though (The Wailing was one of my favorites last year) so worth checking out.

Seen all these, but They Look Like People. Will check it out.

Yeah seen both of those and liked them. Barbarian especially. Did really like how Fresh took the time to really build in that first act and Barbarian sorta does something similar.

Watched Nope last Halloween and it was just alright. Nothing's come close to Get Out from Jordan Peele. Absolutely love the Lighthouse though. Seen it multiple times. Will see it again.

Sounds solid. Thanks. Gonna add this to my list this year for sure.

Watched every V/H/S last year. Enjoyed the first few quite a bit. Viral and 99 were absolutely atrocious. 94 was decent. 1 and 2 are worth watching for sure. I'll probably watch 85 when it comes out this year just to say I've seen 'em all, but zero expectations lol.

Hush looks...super familiar to the point where I feel like I watched it, but nah. Haven't. Will though. Thanks. Adding it to my list for this year probably. Have seen It Follows. Very good. And I watched (and rewatched) every Scream movie last year. 1's an all timer, especially for my boy Matthew Lilard. Even if bad movies like 13 Ghosts he shines. Dead Man's Curve's another one I probably liked a lot more cause he was in it, but I remember that being a real solid late 90s movie, though that's more of a thriller from what I remember. Also Finder's Fee. All those late 90s early 00s movies when I was like 12 with HBO lol.

What's this? Not getting any consistent results for it on google.

The Human centipede.

Seen it.

Sinister.

Seen it. Also the sequel. Thought they were both solid enough watches.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Seen all 6 of those. Trick 'r Treat's such a good Halloween time movie man. Oculus was surprisingly good and there's one scene that always stayed with me. The lightbulb. Babadook was good, but kinda got it over hyped by people before I watched it. The Shining's in my top 3 horror movies ever and possibly #1. I wasn't crazy about Insidious back when it came out, but a lot of people really like it. Maybe I should give it a second go.

As for the second list I just wanna add Coraline.

Smile
Midsommar
Hereditary
Sinister

I've yet to see Smile. Could be a passable shlocky slasher? IDK. Just never looked like much, but if you're recommending it I'll consider it. I always throw in some movies that might surprise me.

Midsommar was alright, but was hoping for more because I thought Hereditary was great.

Autopsy of Jane Doe
St Maud
Dark Song

@Zithers Lotta good stuff here. Never heard of Cure though. Is that 1997? Repulsion's a classic. Not sure I've watched Videodrome start to finish so maybe I should. Like Suspiria, but did love the remake. Diabolique 1955? Might be fun to add some real old stuff to my marathon. Which Innocents you talking about? The 2021 one is already on my list to watch. The Haunting's one of my favorites. Watched it multiple times. Pulse 2001? Never heard of it, but will check it out. Birds is a classic. Never actually seen Possession, but I probably should. Never heard of Peeping Tom, but I'll add it. Eyes Without a Face has been on my to-watch list for like 3 years now. Great stuff man. Thanks.

Never actually seen a Blacula. Could be a fun watch though. Know all about 'em.

@boxoto Kill List is great. Triangle's great. I actually recommend both those all the time and originally heard of them from one of these topics on CE, so wonder if that was you recommending them back then.

I feel like I've seen As Above, So Below, but I'm not sure. Did enjoy the Endless quite a bit. Same guys did Something in the Dirt last year which is weird, but I liked it. Green Room's fun. Mandy was okay. Might rewatch it at ssome point and see if I like it more.

The People Under the Stairs
Hardware
Event Horizon
In The Mouth of Madness
Creepshow

Thanks again to everyone who made suggestions so far. I'll continue making my way through the list later. Got some good looking stuff added to my list this October.

you got the years correct for everything but the innocents which is '61.

i havent actually seen pulse but its by the same guy who made cure, which is outstanding, and i know some people prefer pulse. and yeah diabolique is great. eyes without a face and peeping tom would make for a good 1960 double feature (or triple with psycho :0). i think an american remake also happened. same guy made wages of fear which is good too but not horror (also with an american remake - sorcerer).

looks like you've seen everything then, lol.

but yea, As Above, So Below is the one with the French catacombs under the city, so if you've seen it, then that might help jog your memory.

A couple Indonesian directors have also been killing it the past couple of years. Most of them are on Shudder.
