Nice list :)

If you are into Asian Extreme then there is also

Ichi the Killer
The Chaser
I Saw The Devil
Mother (2009)
The Wailing
Thirst (2009, not really extreme but I like it)
Memories of Murder
A tale of 2 sisters (though that freaks me out more than martyrs for some reason and just confused me, I should try watching it again)

I really like the Brazilan film Bacurau

For nihilist stuff like kill list there is also Traders (2015), Barry Keoghan has always unnerved me since.

Nice one bro. Traders sounds interesting I’ll check it out 👍

this is a clip from mr designer, a soviet film about building immortality with wax mannequins.

...I gave him life

Re-animator second one is very good film

Midsommar is amazing, but even better in my opinion is "Hereditary" by the same creator. My favorite to date, and I've watched hundreds of horror films.

Does any other "older" bigga here find it hard to be scared by films now? I used to love a good chiller back in the day. Now I'm 67, have access to the whole wonders of cable and the web, but any supposed "horror" I watch leaves me cold. Not trying to sound "old and wise" believe me, but every movie in that category I end up feeling "meh".

At 52 I thought I’d seen it all, not been scared for a long long time but then I saw Martyrs and whilst it didn’t scare me like Halloween did when I was much younger, it’s such a visceral experience that it’s become one of my favourite movies. Just don’t make the mistake of watching the US remake, it’s shit.

Never heard of Martyrs so just looked it up. Jeez that sounds heavy and dark! Will check it out some time. 👍

feel the same way at 28

Nocturnal animals messed my head up more than any horror has done in a while. A lot of horror I like has to be more based on an interesting premise like martyrs, though a lot of horror made is targeted for PG-13 as that can command a box office so the films are more gore based but lack the total brain fuck.

It depends what you want from horror and also you possibly need to empathize with the victims. The American version of the ring I decided I was on the side of Samara so I turned it off. I like the Japanese version as it has a sombre ambience. Jump scares get very tiring very quickly and tune me out, though some only like jump scares as it is more popcorn.

You have to say what types of films you used to enjoy. If you want nasty I would put funny games above martyrs as martyrs actually has a reason. Funny games is just pure sadism. Martyrs I put off for a long while, I really enjoyed it when I watched it as the premise is very bizarre.

The Ritual was pretty enjoyable.

The thing 1982 👌 one carpenters finest no cgi nonsense my favorite

American Werewolf in London watched it when I was 6 and scared the shit out of me for weeks, love it now prob best horror ever.

The Human Centipede 1 and 2 - one of some fup movies :)) watch it high

Yeah mate grim to the bone lol

here's some good ones that you might not have heard of all are amazing and worth a watch, you wouldn't be disappointed.

Apocalypto, would you rather, hostel series, saw series, also depends on what sort of horror you like but apocalypto is the best out of them all.

Mate I love the hostel series! Saw is a bit too much xD

I will have a watch of apocalypto, thanks for the recommendation :)

let me know what you think It's old but one of the best films I've ever seen. It's subtitled if you can get over that but its the movie itself that hooks you not much talking in it.

It's a mel gibson one too.

Yeah I will do man, I don’t mind subtitles… I once watched the entire Squid Game series in Korean with subtitles before I found out there was an English dubbed version🤦‍♂️🤣

Cheers

Martyrs

The conjuring series

I second that

Zombie Flesh Eaters (Lucio Fulci)

hereditary

Smile new movie came out recently, very good one really creepy .

Not so much a movie, but the last series of Black Mirror saw a slight deviation in its final episode, rebranding as Red Mirror, a full on horror focused strand.

Demon 79, its debut offering is an absolute blast, up there with some of the best Black Mirror episodes.

Well worth checking out.

"They Live"

Trying to make suggestion but get a warning each time

Martyrs is by far the most disturbing film I’ve ever seen. It is so dark and fucked up.

The devil inside

I exclusively watch horror movies all through October. My standards for horror movies are different than other genre's. Show me something a little bit different and I'll consider it worth the watch.

I try and watch a mixture of new and old stuff throughout the month. So far there has been a clear winner in terms of what I've thought about most after watching.

Talk to me (2022)

I watched about 40 seconds of a 2minute trailer and decided ok I'm in and wouldn't advise knowing any more than that coming in. Now the movie didn't scare me in any way but it did have an incredibly visceral reaction on me to the point of having to look away several times and literally dreading what was coming next. As someone who doesn't think of themselves as squimish in the slightest I can't think the last time a movie did that to me.

Also I found out watching that the guys started out as Youtubers who I actually watched a bunch of their stuff back in the day. Which was really surprising because it does feel like a really confident movie and the chemistry/dialogue between characters is actually way better than a lot of big budget movies.

Hostel or paranormal activity are a couple of my favs.
Although im a bit of a woosy when it comes to watching any horror lol

There's a Turkish horror movie called Baskin which has some of the most messed up scenes I've watched. It's pretty slow to get going but when the fun starts, it goes crazy very quickly.

As above so below x

Love old school 80s slashers and for me the absolute cream of the crop is Friday the 13th part 4 : The Final Chapter.

Genuinely engaging and sympathetic characters, a brilliantly entertaining Corey Feldman and the best final girl chase sequence in horror movie history :)
