shameless self bump

Mulholland Drive, Lost Highway, The Shining

I have no idea why, but Sinister freaks me the fuck out. And I watch a fair amount of horror and violent films. But those tape reels give me the fucking sp00ks.
Also if you decide to watch it, the sequels is complete shit. The first film is decent though.

It had a good atmosphere and a superb soundtrack. I liked it too.
Perfect examples, yeah. Pretty much almost all Lynch work would fit (Eraserhead and Inland Empire were pretty unsettling too)

The tapes are absolute kino. Its a shame they were still following the cliche horror formula so all that creative build up got thrown out the window.

Coulda been a modern day silence of the lambs.

My friend and I would always try to come up with new tape names and themes that we'd like to see in the film. In a fucked up but humorous way.

Ringu and Dark Water (the japanese version).

Sinister went to absolute shit when Bughul or whatever he's called was revealed. Would've been kino if there were no supernatural elements.

The Eye. Mostly because there's a real ghost in it

>real ghost

What happened with J Horror? It was pure spookino. Any underseen gems?

I don't watch a lot of horror. Ones I'll never watch again are
>Texas Chainsaw Massacre
>Audition
>Sinister

I would love to show someone Audition without tellling them that it's an horror film. I would love the see that reaction.

Noroi: The Curse if you haven't seen it yet. It is a found footage film. The director (Kouji Shiraishi) has a few other found footage horror films as well.

Probably no one here has seen it. It's one of the very few movies that made me feel phisically sick

It's curious because pretty much everybody has that movie in high regard but I felt it was too corny when I saw it. That night vision shot is great, but all that comes after is tacky and much of what cames before it I found it quite dull.

Also Cold Fish and Strange Circus from Sion Sono are pretty odd, but not outright horror. Just more mindfuckery from Sono, but absolutely kino.

Noroi: The Curse

me too.

sono is based af

Angst. Can't finish it. The home invasion is too disturbing.

Kairo is one of my favorite movies
Good taste OP
Fuck the tasteless American remake

>inb4 Lake Mungo
Lake Mungo is garbage

Suspiria comes to mind. Salem's lot has probably one of the best usages of creepy kids ever, sadly the rest of it isn't as near as good as that scene.

Some cult that worshiped the baghul demon would have been a lot better. You could even imply the demon was real, as long as you're subtle about it. Outright showing the boogeyman was just dumb and deflated any tension the movie had going.

All american remakes are superior , asianics and indians don't know how to movie. like Old Boy, okay idea, better american

Yeah, it's cheesy, but it's got some real effective tension in parts. The found footage gimmick just got in the way considering the acting was so shitty.

Pic related and The Witch come to mind.
Also, anyone knows of anything similar?

TROLL, IN THE DUNGEON

Kairo was mediocre to begin with.

Oculous is pretty neat.

I haven't seen Kairo yet because the first 5 seconds creeps me out but The Cure was pretty kino.

It was great until the last ten minutes and can never recommend it to anyone because of it. What were they thinking.?

Dog tooth.
Poughkepesie tapes (or however the fuck its spelt)
That one where the girl is kidnapped and burried alive because some creep wanted to try it then years later drugs and buries her father alive because he's been looking for her
The hunt

Anyone watch House of the Devil? It's pretty fucking ace.

I looved Dog Tooth. the only non-comedy i rate over 4

Are you refering to The Witch or A Dark Song?
Both receive criticism for the last minutes.
The angel scene really through me off in ADS but generally I enjoyed it and really liked all the occult mumbo jumbo and atmosphere of the movies.
The Witch is perfect though.

What do you rate dog tooth?
And have you seen bad boy bubby?

...

4.5/5
no I haven't seen that, but that looks cool, picked up

>That one where the girl is kidnapped and burried alive because some creep wanted to try it then years later drugs and buries her father alive because he's been looking for her
The Vanishing

Mulholland Drive
The Mothman Prophecies
The Machinist

I couldnt finish eraserhead after the dancing maid. Creepiest movie i've ever seen

This was good and spooky

Great taste mate.
Can you recommend some more? 'Cause I have seen these.

That's the one

Yeah, dark song. Awful ending. Really enjoyed witch though.

I hope you meant the original and not the piece of shit American remake.

Lake Mango is great tho

Wake in fright

Ju on, sinister, lake mungo and noroi

I really like occult horror but films are usually just spooky witches and demon jump scares.
The old classics are good but a bit corny by today's standards and I have real trouble finding good occult films.

Zombevers.

sounds wild, but mostly gross not scary

Ah, it also goes by the name "the pig fucking movie"

Kurosawa is still doing his thing. The horror genre is dead everywhere.
Under the Skin,

I don't know if it is scary. But is it a really interesting and unique film. Most of the film is shot through mirrors or a 360 snorricam rig. The director maxed out like 20 credit cards to finance the film, and was financially ruined when no one saw the film.

The Body That Was Never Buried was quite disturbing.

I wish I could think of some, but unfortunately I can't. I can recommend lighter, more comedic good horror movies like Ravenous, Ninth Gate, and Secret Window, but no more in the vein of truly creepy.

As Above, So Below

Oculus scared the shit out of me. verily recommended

The origionals french right? Cause uea thats the one i meant. Yet to see the american one

I actually like some american remakes more than the original (The Grudge or The Ring) but in the case of Kairo it was quite possibly the worst remake of the whole bunch. It's like the didn't understand nothing of the original. They took one of the best movies of one of the most interesting directors working today and turned it into cheap CW crap. What a disgrace of movie.

Ninth Gate and Secret Window were decent. I will check out Ravennous.

It's Dutch.

I thought it was shit, like many of the films riding the wave of the Viennese Actionism phenomenon
Edgy provocateurs

Never been more nervous than watching this

>film that scares me

The Evil Dead (2013)
Oculus

The Omen
The Exorcist

>Oculus
I really really really want to fucking see this movie but it's down on everywhere I've looked.

Check em, and yes you should see it. Great movie.

8mm really freaked me out.
I didn't even know snuff porn was a thing

tparser.org/magnet.php?t=1810614877

tparser.org/oculus

oculus is not very scary, but it is a well made film

This plus this one scene in "Premonition" (at least I'm pretty sure that's the one) where this guy sees someone standing down a hallway. Each time the camera cuts to the figure it's closer. The final cut it's right beside him with part of the face is missing. Scared the FUCK out of me.

it's streaming at yesmovies.to

Thanks familia

I love that movie. Plus it disproves anyone trying to say Cage is a bad actor. He just normally gets bad roles. But when he gets a good role, he shines. 8mm, Lord of War, National Treasure.

Oculous was incredibly shit and one of the main reason I never trust anyone on Sup Forums's horror recommendations.

Ringu, Dark Water and Noroi are all shit, Pulse/Kairo is pretty good but Cure is the best.

...

What was the plot of Cure again? I thought Pulse was mediocre at best and that one movie about the tortured monkey and the guy with amnesia was so insultingly bad in just every aspect I had to turn it off 50 m in.

This one's pretty good too. Usually overlooked. Not so creepy, but fairly cryptic and atmospheric. Kiyoshi Kurosawa is simply one of the great ones.

i give it 7 to 7.5/10

i give Cure 9/10

Noroi

Sion sono made Exte
K. kurosawa made Kuripi
Miike - One missed call

Doubly freaked me out because the porn store where joaquin phoenix worked was set in my little town. I was like WTF ?? This shit is going on in my city????

not so much the vvitch but if you like A Dark Song try The Alchemist's Cookbook.

Haven't seen this in a while but I remember it being about some guy wandering between different groups maintaining ancient trees exerting different forms of governance out to people of the world.

>Miike - One missed call
Gozu

The Girl Next Door (2007) is pretty creepy and unnerving. So is Henry: Potrait of a Serial Killer, 8MM, Martyrs, Captivity.

Nocturnal Animals is creepy and unnerving. And Maniac. And Nightcrawler. And the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Inland Empire is creepy, unnerving, slow burn, mysterious.

I forgot:
Dogtooth
The Lobster

That's exactly it, yeah.

>Gozu
