    I’ll throw some I haven’t seen here yet

    Talk to Me is one of the best horror movies I’ve seen. It’s original, well written, and nobody acts like they’re in a horror movie or makes blatantly stupid decisions.

    If you haven’t seen The Others yet, it set the bar for what supernatural horror could be.

    The new boogyman movie is a little ‘modern’, but it’s solid and has some really cool scenes.

    Tigers are not Afraid was one that came out of nowhere to me, it’s a Mexican indie movie about children dealing with cartels, and it’s heavy as hell.

    For less actually scary and more campy, Satanic Hispanics was a lot more fun than I expected. It’s an anthology movie similar to VHS with each piece made by a well known Hispanic director.

    And if you want tone upset for the rest of your life, watch Antichrist by Lars Von Trier and Mother! From Darren Aronofsky without reading anything about either of those movies.

      Wow there is some great gems here!

      The Others is amazing and I remember being blown away by it when I watched it. Totally love it!

      The new Boogyman was probably one of my favorite more last year. It actually made me really get into it and i felt it wasn’t all jumpscare like many horror movies do today. I love horror movies that build it up and takes it time.

      Talk to me… Omg what a great flix. I think I have to watch it again. I’m looking forward to see what comes next from the director.

      Oh and Antichrist. Wow, that movie was such a mixed bag for me. I really liked it until the ending, but I won’t go into spoiler territory. It’s definitely one of the more fucked up movies I’ve seen, but I wouldn’t say it’s really that bad.

      By the way, if you’re into Lars Von Trier then The House that Jack built is pretty good as well. And if you’re interested in something that is not horror related Melancholia is a great movie, but it might be a hard watch if you’re not to patient. The reason I love it is because it truly shows how depression can be.
