The Witch (2015): creepy atmospheric period film set in Puritan New England. Very unsettling ending. Actress is a top tier waifu. (1/31)

7 replies 3 retweets 84 likes

The Neon Demon (2016): stylized take on the cannibalistic LA modeling industry. Hints at true Satanic nature of the city. Nice waifu. (2/31)

4 replies 9 retweets 62 likes

Noroi (2005): disturbing Japanese found footage film. Thoroughly engrossing mystery. Each minute is like diving deeper into Hell. (3/31)

7 replies 9 retweets 67 likes

"Ghost Video": most realistic application of found footage to horror genre. Scares hiding in plain sight. (4/31)

1 reply 6 retweets 34 likes

I Saw the Devil (2010): ultra-violent Korean revenge thriller featuring one of the best movie villains in recent history. (5/31)

6 replies 6 retweets 55 likes

The House of the Devil (2009): cool throwback to 80's haunted house/slasher flicks. Good at building tension. Dancing scene is kino. (6/31)

Audition (1999): twisted Japanese film with an extremely graphic torture scene. Plays off male fear of vulnerability around women. (7/31)

3 replies 1 retweet 30 likes

Angst (1983): demented look into the mind of a serial killer. Unreliable narrator & creative camera work make it particularly unique. (8/31)

5 replies 5 retweets 45 likes

REC 2 (2009): Solid sequel. Movie is like playing a video game. Even more people screaming in Spanish. Watch both as double feature. (9/31)

2 replies 3 retweets 28 likes

Paranormal Activity 3 (2011): prequel to original film. Works well as an 80s period piece. Particularly chilling ending. Skip 2 & 4. (11/31)

Ils (2006): French/Romanian home invasion film. Not your typical slasher fare. Good jump scares and excellent tension throughout. (11/31)

5 replies 1 retweet 20 likes

It (2017): more coming of age story with horror elements. Clown design is suitably creepy and the haunted house is cool. Nice waifu. (12/31)

2 replies 1 retweet 24 likes

The Conjuring (2013): horror potlatch complete with haunted house, paranormal investigators, a found footage scene, and an exorcism. (13/31)

Friday the 13th (1980): important piece of horror history but worse than '78 Halloween in every way. Ending was surprising at least. (14/31)

3 replies 14 likes

The Host (2006): Korean monster movie. Much of the humor fell flat and the movie is tonally inconsistent. Watch Godzilla instead. (15/31)

8 replies 1 retweet 18 likes

Possession (1981): essential /misogynycore/ set against the backdrop of Cold War Berlin. Performances are downright insane in this. (16/31)

1 reply 3 retweets 47 likes

Martyrs (2008): French film that combines home invasion, torture, and occult aspects. Decent /misogynycore/ with strong Hapa lead. (17/31)

2 replies 3 retweets 21 likes

À l'intérieur (2007): French home invasion film about fetal abduction. Worse than Ils, better than Martyrs. Logical for horror. (18/31)

2 retweets 14 likes

Escape from Tomorrow (2013): nothing scarier than a father & mother screaming at each other in front of their kids at Disney World. (19/31)

1 reply 1 retweet 21 likes

Cannibal Holocaust (1980): arguably still the most graphic & realistic movie ever recorded, but a quality found footage nonetheless. (20/31)

3 retweets 34 likes

Tetsuo: The Iron Man (1989): Japanese body horror that remains the closest approximation of Zuckerberg's Vision ever put to film. (21/31)

1 reply 14 retweets 61 likes

Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1986): Follows daily life of a serial killer in almost a documentary format. Great performances. (22/31)

3 replies 2 retweets 23 likes

It Follows (2014): thought this would be Reddit but visuals/soundtrack are great. Characters unlikeable. The original Thot Patrol. (23/31)

3 replies 6 retweets 43 likes

Hellraiser (1987): interesting concept and lore but hampered by poor execution. Worth a watch for the great Cenobite designs. (24/31)

2 replies 1 retweet 22 likes

The Borderlands (2013): British found footage horror set in an old church. Strong pre-Christian themes and a very disturbing ending. (25/31)

2 replies 2 retweets 28 likes

The Descent (2005): one of the better modern horror films. Novel underground setting & plausible monsters. See with original ending. (26/31)

4 replies 35 likes

Black Swan (2010): a psychological horror story about the struggle to attain artistic perfection. Impressive ballet performances. (27/31)

1 reply 1 retweet 14 likes

Rabbits (2002): David Lynch series about a family of anthropomorphic rabbits. Genuinely unsettling and open to interpretation. (28/31)

4 replies 7 retweets 39 likes

The Thing (1982): one of the few horror remakes considered better than the original. Unique setting and influential monster design. (29/31)

4 replies 6 retweets 52 likes

Don't Breathe (2016): tense inversion of the home invasion horror sub genre. Really fun to watch. Scene in the dark is excellent. (30/31)

The Apartment Trilogy: Polanski's Repulsion, Rosemary's Baby, and The Tenant stand as profound examples of contemporary alienation. (31/31)
