The Infectious Paradox
Gold Member
I like slashers mostly, but also ones with a creepy creature like babadook. I just feel like recommendations I find on Google are kind of eh. So hit me with some good ones!

Hush (2016) - Slasher/home invasion film, with the twist of the woman being stalked being blind.
Laid To Rest (2009) - Chromeskull is too often overlooked as a franchise slasher for my liking.
Under the Shadow (2016) - If you don't mind subtitles, this marvellous little film, set in a Tehran tower block in the 1980s, falls into the creepy creature category.

Get some Korean horrors on the go. They'll make you shit your pants. You'll then realise most western horror is for babies.

The Tim Robbins one? Excellent film!

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I love this movie. Jason Mewes and Judah Friedlander needed more screen time though!

I rewatched last night and was surprised by the edit to biker chick scene. I didn't know there was another version and for a moment I thought I may have imagined that part of the movie and got a little disturbed with myself. Luckily, the unrated version was on youtube to verify.

Cabin in the Woods
The Invitation
Let The Right One In (or Let Me In which is the US remake)

Oculus
Apostle
The Void

1. The Wailing
2. BWP
3. Insidious
If you end up liking the Wailing, and want more Korean horror:
1. Train to Busan
2. Gonjiam
If you like BWP and want more good found footage:
1. Taking of Deborah Logan
2. Gonjiam (as already recommended above)
If you liked Insidious:
1. Sinister
2. The Thing
There is much wider suggestions and list I can give, but this is a good starting point for modern horror (90s-now), in my opinion (though the Thing is 80s), and I tried not to cross to much into prior comments with suggestions I didn’t think needed repeating.

Recently I enjoyed The Dark and the Wicked, The Medium and Terrifier 2.
Okay to be fair, the latter is more funny than scary.

Malignant firmly straddles the horror/comedy line but is absolutely glorious - and genuinely one of the best things I've seen in years.
If, for some inexplicable reason, you've never seen Scream, get on that. Similarly, would echo recommendations for Cabin in the Woods.

I really enjoyed Skinamarink. Definitely not for everyone but I loved how experimental and different it was.
It reminded me of the films Ethan Hawke found in Sinister except it’s like an hour and forty minute one.

The Silence of the Lambs. Perhaps the perfect thriller horror.
The Exorcism of Emily Rose. Part demonic horror, part courtroom drama.
Hereditary. I can't say much without spoiling things.
The Dawn of the Dead remake. The best movie Zack Snyder ever made and possibly the best "fast zombie" movie ever.

The Medium is one of the best horror films I've ever seen. The Dark and the Wicked was really good except that the last scene ruined the whole movie. Terrified I haven't watched I don't like slashers or silly clowns trying to be scary.

It really depends on what you're looking for. While I recognize why people love them, I personally don't like Ari Aster's stuff.
Pearl and X on the other hand?

Cursed - the best Werewolf movie since Dog Soldiers
Hereditary - Ari Aster's best movie and is closer to the Babadook as a movie.
The Sadness - A Taiwanese horror movie that was my favorite of 2021.
The Barbarian - If you want a straight up a horror monster movie.
Dashcam - Enjoyable found footage movie but the main character can come across as unlikable.

Green Room is fantastic and I liked Blackcoat's Daughter quite a bit. Bodies, Bodies, Bodies was awful.
