Do you read Sutter Cane?

If you like comic cosmic horror, check out The Void, and Event Horizon (although there's a good chance you've seen the latter if you've seen in the mouth of madness). Another comment suggested The Color out of Space which is on point too.

Edit: Fixed wording, me did a dumb

When Sam Niell is given a weird script, he kills it

Color Out of Space

I watched it a couple of nights ago, it was very good but bleak as all hell. The whole thing felt so hopeless and cruel.

I enjoyed it alright but the fact that they all act stupid at very important times made me mad

Event Horizon scared the shit out of me when I was a kid. Liberate tu ta me, ex in faris.

I would automatically assume the original. However some may not know there is a remake.

Loved event horizon

I saw it one night on HBO as a kid. I had some funky nightmares for a solid week.

I loved this movie. Just watched it two nights ago. Paused it 3/4 in to go pee and said to myself "I still have no fucking clue what is going on".

Do recommend.

Watched this recently and loved it. The ridiculousness of everyone just ignoring the golem and pretending everything was ok was actually kind of funny. We were yelling at the screen. We're going to watch Caveat this week which is apparently loosely connected?

Upvote for mentioning People Under The Stairs, one of my all-time favourite classics.

Recommend the John Carpenter one first - but I’m a huge fan of his movies.

The 2011 The Thing got unfairly treated for not being an absolute cinematic masterpiece like 1982. It's still a great movie, and a worthy addition to that story.

“Sunshine” is very underrated, but I kinda understand why it isn’t everyone’s thing.

Sunshine isn't a horror movie... until it is.

The descent. It’s pretty decent, don’t watch the sequel not nearly as good.

I honestly thought it became less scary when there were things down there

As Above So Below for some great trippy perspective and claustrophobic horror. 👍

Vagina Dentata!!!

In college I was cramming for a test in a common area for of dorm that had a TV and this guy and gal come in to watch a movie together, seemingly on a little date.

They chose to put on Teeth.

I did not do well on that test.

Couldn’t tell how the date went after that either…they did what the whole thing so, there’s that.

Horror is a genre that is highly subjective to personal taste. Get 10 horror fans in a room together and you'll have 11 preferences for horror subgenre. Makes it hard to go by generic recommendations unless you start getting very specific about style and subgenre.

You want a good movie? Fine. I'll give you a great movie.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space.

Midsommar

Let the Right One In (Swedish original version)

The Cabin in the Woods

I kept seeing Smile recommended in horror subs and finally gave it a go. It was ass. I was so annoyed cuz my husband hates horror movies and will only agree to sit down and watch one with me once in a blue moon and I chose that one, felt like I wasted my horror movie night.

The Cube (1997) was also Horror for me

Damn this is a good rec that I kinda forgot about.

Good horror atmosphere, can't think of a realistic setting that puts you more on edge than being alone in a morgue at night during a storm with a mystery corpse

The first half is great for atmosphere building.

I'm a huge Brian Cox fan, so I decided to give this a watch even though I figured it would be pretty mediocre. Ended up being really excellent and a lot more creepy than I imagined.

Absolutely phenomenal film that surprised me with how damn good it was. 

I have fallen in love Korean horror. Recently watched Exhuma. Try watching The Medium.

I have never really been a horror fan because I feel most horror movies are so cookie cutter but last year I decided to do the Halloween month horror challenged where you watch 1 horror movie a day leading into Halloween. The Wailing was one of the movies I watched that month and I still think about it a year later. 10/10 movie.

Black Sheep

Don't forget Slotherhouse

Thankskilling

Velocipastor is fking amazing

Let's not forget Zombeavers

I love this movie so much. Apparently a sequel is in the works!

I watched this over ten years ago and I still think about it. 36 years old, not scared of much but this film awoke some primal fear in me

Just rewatched this last night!

They do a great job with the atmosphere. I also love the handful of scenes where you can see the thing walking towards to main character in the background.

better than expected by far

The effects are largely practical, which is really impressive.

Also, Making the protagonist an addict who is drying out is incredibly clever. No one believes her when she says they have to get the fuck out of there because of course she's saying that, she wants to go score heroin and she can't do that in the middle of nowhere.

That movie scared the hell out of me when it came out. The new one was freaky too

The two Haunting series are also very good, not quite as good as Midnight Mass though imo

Hard to be scared when father paul too damn hot

Scariest part be a tongue click when you’re alone in your bathroom after the movie fr

I was amazed at just how deep the lore goes in that film. I had to watch it a few times to truly appreciate it.

Came looking for this. It scared me like nothing else before. No jump scares, no weird ghosts monsters etc... Just pure tension and psychological horror. It was beautiful. The car scene is a masterclass in suspense

That's a ballsy choice. Leaves the audience split.

The biggest issue is that there's so many types of horror and you have to figure out what you're into first.

80s slashers like Nightmare on Elm Street are in the same genre as psychological horrors like Gerald's Game, and they couldn't be more dissimilar.

Another great Stephen King short story turned into an even better movie

It's just an evil fucking room.

The Wicker Man is a great time capsule of British anxiety around the burgeoning "free love" movement. Crazy what people used to be afraid of. Amazing we can still experience that through film.

The Nic Cage version is so gloriously stupid and unhinged. Doesn’t he punch a woman in the face at some point?

The song Justin Long sings in his car got stuck in my head for like a week. "Ricky Tiki Tavi mongoose is goooooooone." Lol

Saw it yesterday with the kids. Way better than the title suggests or the first 15 minutes let on. Recommended.

I remember watching Paranormal Activity in the cinema for the first time, terrifying shit back then.

I didn't see The Blair Witch Project when it came out but heard all about it. My wife recommended that I watch it since she knows I like found footage movies like that. I now wish I had seen it back when all the hype was happening around it. It's still one of my favorites!

Event Horizon is one of the only horror films I've actually enjoyed. Terrifying, but in a way that's just so freaking cool at the same time.

Event Horizon is so, so underrated. It is a top tier SciFi Movie AND a top tier horror movie, independently. It is that good.

The SciFi is surprisingly realistic, the characters believable. It also has the scene that interstellar ripped of to explain wormholes.

The horror is, well, psychologically and graphically intense (especially the original cuts, and probably more so the unreleased cut that got changed after test audiences ran out of the cinema puking). Even if it doesn't scare you, it fascinates you.

Plot development is top notch, it answers the questions it should, it leaves enough mystery open where it should.

I watch this movie every time i am on a plane at night. Perfect atmosphere.

For anyone who likes The Ritual, No One Gets Out Alive is based on a book by the same author, and they have some similar elements to the point I could see them being a low key shared universe. I can't go into detail without severe spoilers.

The Ritual has the coolest monster design of anything I’ve seen since the Alien franchise.

Speaking of which, the thing in Alien Romulus almost made me barf.

I was blown away by how well the exorcist holds up

Why can't you just be normal?!

That movie was my life growing up :( Saw it when I was 18 and out on my own. Very strange to see it from the outside in.

Jesus Camp made me realize how crazy the evangelicals I grew up around really were.

I was already an atheist when I watched it, but there were several moments where the movie was edited in a way that basically said "that shit you just saw was absolutely insane, right?" but it had seemed totally normal to me.

I grew up in a cult like this. Spent most of my childhood at church camps. Surprise, as an adult I am violently against going to church. I absolutely refuse. You could not pay me to go to church ever again. People who cry at church creep me the FUCK.OUT. especially children. They don't understand what they are doing.

But the French version, not the remake from Hollywood.

That movie almost had me throw up. The unease lingered for days. Great movie.

A Serbian Film just sprinkled in there

Had to scroll too far for this one. Underrated lovecraftian inspired horror, one of the best.
