All zombies baby
Train to Busan, his hands down one of the best recent zombie films. It is emotional, just devastation and honestly the pacing of this film is relentless. Once it starts, it doesn’t stop until you get to the end.
Train To Busan [DVD] [2016]
No, I know a lot of people did not like this film because they read the book 1st and the book is amazing but I don’t think they did a bad job with this movie. I just think it probably would’ve been better if they turned it into an anthology TV show a...
World War Z : Brad Pitt, Marc Forster
Probably one of my favorite remix of a traditional Romero zombie flick. Good cast and Zack Snyder really loves making zombie babies.
Dawn of the Dead
What a great zombie film they bring in the era of fast zombies empty London is so creepy and honestly, the film just leaves you with a sense of dread for most of the time you’re watching it
28 Days Later (Widescreen Special Edition)
Without giving too much away, I would say this is a found footage movie that really uses panic as a main vector, and that panic just spirals into nightmare fuel.
Rec [DVD] : Movies & TV
Plague and Infection
For some reason during Covid, I watched these movies obsessively. I don’t know if I was just trying to scare myself or if it gave me some kind of comfort to see that the plague would end by the end of the movie.
A really realistic look into a worldwide plague with a rockstar cast.
Contagion - Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow
A film full of paranoia based horror not jump scares
It Comes At Night - DVD: Joel Edgerton, Riley Keough
This is a really good film about a small town that gets locked down by the military and all of the chaos that happens afterward
The Crazies : Timothy Olyphant, Radha Mitchell
This is just a classic viral panic film with very high stakes
Outbreak - DVD
Carries exists as this almost quiet, bleak, and emotionally, brutal film. You can’t even say you really enjoy it because the experience of the people you’re watching is so miserable. Also, I can stay in this situation that this movie made me hate Chr...
Carriers
F*ck around & find out films
OK, so this is one of my favorite genres and I didn’t really know what to call it but it’s essentially people go somewhere. They’re not supposed to bad things happen and everyone dies.
Honestly, cave diving was your first mistake here.
The Descent (Original Unrated Widescreen Edition)
Because going into a forbidden area of the Paris catacombs is a wonderful idea. But for real this movie is claustrophobic, psychological and similar to the descent, but different.
As Above So Below (Blu-ray + DVD)
Classic case of tourists going into a forbidden area and realizing that they can’t get out. There’s a lot of dread and body horror in this film.
The Ruins (Unrated Edition)
So underwater cave diving is one of my biggest real life fears. I am terrified of the people who get trapped down there and how their bodies just kind of float and then you can go down there and then they will get caught up in your line and then you’...
Sanctum: Richard Roxburgh, Alice Parkinson
Do girls decide to do one of those shark experience excursions but they chose a cheap company and they end up getting stuck at the bottom of the ocean in a cage. Listen I think the ocean is beautiful, but why do y’all keep going inside of it?
47 Meters Down - Claire Holt
Ghosts that go bump in the night
Honestly, a classic ghost movie will never fail.
Honestly, all of the films in the conjuring series are really cool and most of them are based off of real cases by the Warrens. They are well-made ghost films that don’t rely entirely on jump scares.
Conjuring 7-Film Collection, The (DVD)
This is just such a good movie that I wish there was more of it when it was over.
Sinister - DVD, Digital Copy : Ethan Hawke ...
Slow burn with an amazing twist
The Others - Nicole Kidman, Fionnuala Flanagan
Campy B rated horror flix
Her for some reason is one of the best avenues for comedy and it just hits so well.
Hands-down, one my favorite favorite favorite horror movies as a child and every year on Halloween. I watch it without fail.
KillerKlownsfromOuterSpace (RPKG/DVD)
Aliens secretly control society and only special sunglasses reveal the truth = campy, political, AND that ridiculous fight scene everyone remembers for the win.
They Live [DVD] : Roddy Piper, Keith David
Furry alien creatures land on Earth and start eating everything. Its chaotic, funny, and very much “we had a wild idea and just ran with it”.
Critters (DVD) - Dee Wallace Stone
A mysterious dessert takes over people’s bodies and its genuinely one of the weirdest concepts ever… but it WORKS
The Stuff: Michael Moriarty, Andrea Marcovicci
Alien slugs turn people into zombies. 80s college horror with humor, one-liners, and great practical effects!
Night of the Creeps : Jason Lively, Steve ...
Comedy & chaos
These are some of my favorite films that I grew up watching with my cousins when I was like six or eight years old. I ended up watching the majority of these films during MonsterVision on TNT in the 90s and these will always have a special space in m...
Dry humor + real emotional stakes + zombies done right.
Shaun of the Dead [DVD] : Kate Ashfield ...
A misunderstanding turns into absolute carnage (and it’s hilarious)
Tucker & Dale vs. Evil - Tyler Labine
Rich family plays a deadly game… and it escalates FAST. I’m gonna watch the sequel that comes out too.
Ready or Not [DVD] [2019]
Vampires make bad and petty roommates.
What We Do In The Shadows Dvd
Campy, violent, chaotic fun with a cult twist
2017 - The Babysitter
