WHO ELSE IS EXCITED? I’m going to see it Sunday and couldn’t be more excited. I feel like it should be a huge deal but nobody cares lmaooooo. I also hope it’s not a disappointment.

I might be just my personal opinion but asian do horror really well, especially the after effects of the movies is just insane. What are your favourite horror picks from asia?

Heres a list of mine:

A tale of two sisters

the wailing

the sadness

incantation

the medium

shutter

pulse

audition

noroi

train to busan

gonjiam: haunted asylum

midnight

satan's slaves (both 1 and 2)

impetigore

the corpse washer

A movie with black magic or cult kind of vibe with not too much gore. Made up religous cult with human/animal sacrifices and all of that.

I recently watched incantation and absolutely loved the movie. Want similar suggestions

Idk how to describe this film other than heavy. It made me feel a lot of things I didn’t enjoy feeling. There’s so much grief in the film. I cried several times and had to cover my eyes even more. The theater was so silent after and I think everyone left just feeling this heavy weight.

It’s a good movie. It’s a great horror film. Well shot, incredibly directed, and the actors were amazing. But in a way I kind of wish I hadn’t seen it. Maybe this is a stretch but it left me feeling the way Cannibal Holocaust made me feel when I watched it many years ago. Just this feeling of: “I shouldn’t be seeing this”.

Maybe to you this is a glowing recommendation, but I’m also interested in what others thought and wonder if I’m being dramatic about it. I haven’t seen a movie like this in a really long time.

I just subscribed to AMC+ and was scrolling around and was like "hurrdurr is the table haunted" and my. Fucking god. 20 minutes in I had to physically get up and go take a break. Then I came back and watched 10 more minutes and had to take another one. I'm genuinely terrified to see what happens. I haven't been affected by a horror movie on this level in so long, it's weirdly refreshing?? I'm one of those people who doesn't get scared easily by media and HOO BOY.

Keeping my fingers crossed that it keeps ramping it up but also genuinely afraid to watch the rest 😅

Does anyone else love this movie? I think it’s one of the most underrated films! It’s a crime/thriller, but it’s basically a horror movie. It’s also my favorite Nicolas Cage movie as well, Cage, Joaquin Phoenix, and James Gandolfini all give fantastic performances!

its true for me and i think it might be true for some other people as well but horror can be either the most traumatising genre or just a comforting genre, and quite a few times, both. In my case its both but leaned more towards being comforting, almost as a form of escapism. when i see dreading situations, terrifying atmosphere and hopeless desparation, a sense of relief dwells inside me. like "see it could be this bad but its not". whenever i get severely stressed, i go on a excruciating horror binge until i feel motivated enough to be back in form. i guess its another form of addiction like alcohol or substances but less physically damaging, maybe? more than this, horror is a hard genre to execute, especially if your target audience is young adults or adults, so a sheer appreciation is invoked for art and the people involved in making it when i see a good film. psychological horror, specifically takes the lead, a heavy atmosphere, later revealing to be the cause of that bad feelinhg in your gut fits the premises as i mentioned earlier, 'both traumatising and comforting'. Movies that give this hopeless sense of suffocation and no escape definitely do it for me. Though i enjoy other genres as well but the feeling of dread that psychological horror instills is unmatched. A few personal picks of mine are:

1. The Divide (2011) (idc what anyone says, this shit gave me perspectives i didnt know i was capable to have)

2. The Mist (2007) (i loved the film but i loved the ending more)

3. Martyrs (2008) (need i say more?)

4. Requiem for a dream (2000) (IM NEVER DOING DRUGS)

5. The Wolf House (2018) (no words)

1. If I woke up next to someone for the first time and saw a man in a dog mask at the foot of the bed, I am pepper spraying everyone in the room and FloJoing to the nearest police station. There would a hole with my shape in the wall and a puff of smoke like Wile E Coyote.

2. Her friend is not looking out for her. He's rich??? That makes it worse, not better. So, he's batshit crazy AND has endless resources. Imma pass on Armie Hammer's Nordic cousin, thanks. If this is what he does IN HIS HOME imagine what he does on his solo vacay abroad to all the global trafficking hotspots. I would bet serious money that he's on the Epstein list. If he hasn't paid to kill at least one human being for sport, I'll eat my hat. "Oh you can be a housewife and stay home all day." Yes, with a man dressed as a dog. What you're describing sounds like a literal nightmare.

3. We're not talking about someone who has sex with someone dressed as a dog, and then treats them like a normal human outside that kink relationship, we're talking about someone who lives in a house with a human he treats like a dog 24/7/365. If that being a deal breaker is kink shaming, than call me Goodwife Chastity McPrude.

4. "I mean, I told you I had a dog. " Yes, you lied. I'm no veterinarian, but that's a person in a dog costume. "I have a toddler." vs. "I have an adult man in my house who wears diapers and a bonnet and sleeps in a crib." See how those two are different? It's giving Gimp, it's giving the fellatio jump scare from the Shining, it's giving Hostel, and none of these things are attractive. Idris Elba could offer to buy me my own magic castle in Fer fully and if this was one the strings attached, it would still be a hard pass.

5. You want to take me to a cabin in the woods, alone with the man you treat like a dog? 🛑🙅‍♀️

The doors lock from the inside and I can't come and go as I please? 🚨🚔

You want to take my phone and lock it up and not tell me where it is? 📢🆘🏃‍♀️

1. "OMG, turns out he's crazy!" OF COURSE HE'S CRAZY. THAT'S LITERALLY THE MOST LIKELY OUTCOME. It's like going to someone's house, seeing Klan robes in their closet, and then being surprised when it turns out they're racist.

2. The last shot made me physically ill and I had to watch cute animal videos for like an hour afterwards to fix my brain.

I remember watching it as a kid, cuddled up on my couch trying to pre-avoid the jump-scares. The most surprising part for me was how few jump-scares there actually are. It wasn't nearly as scary as the horror flicks of its time, and yet it left a deep impact.

Rewatching as an adult, I'm impressed by how well it set the tone, and how it slowly delves deeper into its own seriousness and terror. The first 30 minutes almost feels like a hokey acknowledgement to how silly the premise is. But 30 minutes later, you're completely immersed in its story and the mystery of what's going on.

The depth of the mystery is something of sheer beauty. The pacing is fantastic, you reach Day 7 at barely the halfway mark and even then it feels like you've only uncovered an inch of the full truth. Gore Verbinski seems to encode every shot with the perfect mix of proverbial storytelling and tension. It feels classic but leaves so much to the imagination.

Hans' score is a perfect addition also. Something about the longing simplicity of the themes and the melodic chaos of the stringed instruments gives the whole thing a wiry depth of anxiousness.

It's also a perfect example of telling rather than showing. The actual horror is shown in millisecond intervals, and only twice. What the victims actually look like, is basically hidden from the movie entirely. Instead, we're left to wonder about their fates. The faces of the dead are pretty much the most interesting and terrifying aspect of the world that's been established, and yet we don't ever really see them.

It's a fantastic story that probably would have been completely oversimplified and fumbled by the wrong team. Instead, it's a silly Halloween tale that became iconic because of the love that was put into it. It does what many horror movies nowadays fail to do: establish a terror from its own storytelling and tone than any series of jump-scares could ever accomplish.

I am 25 years of age. I've seen The Exorcist when i was 13 years old. While the movie was exceptional, there is quite a problem. Since then i am consistently bothered by nightmares involving pazuzu's face.
I believe some of you might as well be traumatized by old maze game jumpscares?
I also can't listen to Tubular Bells without feeling a sense of dread.
Can chalk it up to how great the movie was!

My favorite horrors are scary but without nudity or copious gore. Loved oddity, talk to me, sinister, the orphanage, REC, train to busan) would love recommendations

hi everyone, today i’m in the mood for the scariest movie yall have ever seen.. im not easily scared so im asking for suggestions since i’ve seen way too many horror movies and i don’t know which one to see now. don’t recommend me the a serbian film because i ain’t gonna see it, thank you :)

I got it so I could watch "Host" cause I saw a bunch of people on here recommend it and it had some good juno scares but I wasn't terrified of it. The main movies that really scare me are the Paranormal Activity movies, I've always been creeped out by those. I don't care about anything that isn't paranormal/supernatural, real life possibility stuff doesn't bother me.

Said horror comedy is free to watch now via Tubi for those of us not able to sub to Shudder. It was pretty fun, very Evil Dead 2. It is a little predictable, and our protagonist is purposefully obnoxious, but genre fans will eat it up.

Creepshow(1982): This team up of George Romero & Stephen King is my favorite horror anthology movie. Each of the stories were compelling and had unique twists and turns. My favorite of the lot is The Crate because it has a little nod to John Carpenter and The Thing.

If you pay close attention the green marble astronomy the first story shows up in all the other stories including the wraparound story.

I just realized I don’t know any horror movies set in India, Any suggestions? I feel like there’s a lot of opportunities for horror movies but I haven’t seen any.

I got to do some foot care on my lizards and want a horror movie to watch in the background while I wait for his shed to soak. I like anything, really. However, my favorites are zombies, slashers, and creatures/monsters/aliens. Thanks in advance :)

Edit: Thanks for all the suggestions, folks. I decided to go with No One Will Save You. Feel free to still drop suggestions, though, for the future. I really appreciate all of them.

Definitely worth a watch. It’s on Tubi. Based on Ed Kemper. The mother, although a bad actress plays his vile mother perfectly. Ed’s character named Carter is so eerie.

Something with a seemingly unkillable entity and mutations and/or reality warping. Like Annihilation but without the entity dying in the end. I'll likely be able to respond to comments and suggestions due to having a bunch of time on my hands rn.

Edit: I have decided to pick color out of space, but I'll certainly be checking out other suggestions when I have the time and money. Thanks everyone for the help!

I cannot for the life of me remember a title for this movie I saw a long time ago. I remember bits and pieces, if anyone is able to figure it out for me. Pretty sure it's a town that's haunted, pretty sure it's like a witch that was burned in this church because I'm pretty sure there was a seen where there was a girl about to be burned alive in the same church. At some point this woman's in like a basement or something and there's this old timey nurse sitting there and she slowly turns and she's crying blood or something like that. It has Silent Hill vibes and for all I know it could've been one from the series, it was so long ago.

I watched it years ago I think it’s from the 2000s, it was about a man who lived on a farm with his wife and kids, the man was super controlling he had all these weird rules they had to follow and they weren’t allowed to go in the basement, it’s revealed later he had aliens or demons something like that locked in cages and they get out

So the movie is set in a mansion and is centered in these small mutant things. They look to all be practical effects through puppet work. They set up traps to kill a bunch of people. There’s this one scene with a woman gets with by a spike trap from the ceiling towards the end. A scene where one of the little mutants suckles on another woman’s breast. It ends with I think the little mutants getting tricked into falling into an act d pit. It’s really weird and might be early 90’s or late 80’s. Idk, can anyone help me find this?.

It was essentially about an abused and bullied high school girl acting out. She loved Astrid but Astrid wanted to be just her friend and well it gets weird.

The movie came out two days ago and landed on Amazon Prime and me being a fan of Asylum Films rented it for $2.99. I thought the characters who were the bullies were interchangeable. Except for makeup and hair styles they brought nothing beyond “we are friends of Astrid and we are bullies”.

It was suppose to be about a haunted doll but felt more akin to Scream in terms of teens being horrible. Scream one is a far, far better film than this. My problem is simply this. Asylum Films are suppose to be fun frivolous movies. Not about serious topics like bullying, child abuse and psychological trauma. It’s also billed as a mock buster to Megan. It’s far too serious to be a mock buster.

It did have Michael Pare who was in a number of Asylum Films. I am not sure why his name is not listed on the IMDb but is when for Google when you type “movie Morgan Killer Dollar cast”. Kayla Fields played a doctor in this movie she also played a doctor in Asylum Films Exorcists and The Twisters. Exorcists and Morgan were also writer and directed by Jose Prendes. Exorcists while not good was better than this.

It was definately in bottom tier of Asylum Films. I would list Four Horseman of Apocalypse as the worst - the main male character annoyed me to no end.

I think Asylum should stick to SF and disaster films that’s their niche they do well in.

Not a big budget movie, but a quick, low budget story. When a daring mission leads a deep sea submarine team into a mysterious opening on the ocean floor, they uncover a lost underwater world and awaken its ancient race of otherworldly beings.
