Horror films also gave me a lot of anxiety. To get over that dread is one of the reasons I watch so many of them. ---

Did you watch The Black Phone? I guess its not eXaCtLy a horror movie, not sure what youd call it but I loved it. Part of that might be that the opening scenes hit me hard, so close to my life, it felt so real. Theres many problems with the plot if you pay attention, but I just really enjoyed it. It was something different and character based which is lacking these days. Demons is my all time fav. Its crap, but when I watched it I was young and I efn loved it. And part 2 is just funny to me. The little Benji dog demon was hilarious. Talking of funny theres the old Blood Diner. Horrible movie, I loved it. Brain Dead. Oh my G does it start off boring, but then the gore and the humor! “I kick arse for the lord!”. Apparently it starts boring deliberately to get you in a state so the horror hits more, but I think Peter Jackson might have gone a little far with that. Most of mine are old 😜 ---

I haven’t watched Black Phone yet. I heard it is quite good, so let me see if I can watch that soon 🙂 ---

I’m not a fan of horror movies but there are times that I watch paranormal documentaries which is more real. Well, there’s a reason why I’m not watching it because I can sense them especially when I’m watching. Seems like they were drawn by your fear when you’re watching ---

Yes! The list is being updated continuously. Quiet Place, Part II is really good indeed! ---

I just finished watching The Closet ([The Closet (2020) - IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11727052/)), and it was really good. Definitely up there in terms of nice story with a few scary moments. Watched the new movie, Trap. It was OK if you ignore the massive plot holes. Not a strong recommendation from me. I had also been watching a few Kurosawa horror films. No, not Akira. It’s another Kurosowa
Kiyoshi Kurosawa. Both Cure ([Cure (1997) - IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0123948/)) and Pulse ([Pulse (2001) - IMDb](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0286751/?)) are good from an artistic point of view, but definitely not scary in modern terms. ---

I’m trying to avoid horror movies because of my cowardness, but sometimes curiosity wins. ‘The Cabin in the Woods’ (2011) isn’t perfect, but I like it because it’s a hidden black comedy. Plus, there’s some cool SCP fan stuff, which I appreciate as an SCP fan. ---

It’s not a direct reference, of course, but there was this underground lab where they contained all sorts of dangerous creatures, monsters, and villains. Still, there were even glimpses of things that felt similar to what’s described on the SCP wiki. ---

That’s fair. I think I’m falling behind on my SCP lore. I forgot about the lab completely. ---

Finally got around to watching the Black Phone. Really nice movie. The sequel was OK, but not as good as the original đŸ”„ ---

Nice list, Kirupa! You might want to check out “Hereditary” if you haven’t yet-top-notch modern horror with deep psychological chills. Yoshiii ---

Nice list, @kirupa! I’ve been really into “The Haunting of Hill House” lately—such a great mix of scares and storytelling. Looking forward to seeing what else you add! WaffleFries ---

That I have seen, and it is really good. All of the Mike Flanagan shows have been excellent. ---

Added a few more! We were watching “The Town” yesterday, and I forgot that Rebecca Hall who stars in that film also had some excellent horror movies that I need to update the list with đŸ‘» ---
