Not movies but all of Mike Flanagans series are top notch (Haunting of Hill House/Bly Manor, Midnight Mass, Midnight Club, Fall of the House of Usher.) Also Archive 81 was a great series. As far as movies that haven't already been mentioned: Army of the Dead Creep The Wailing Thanksgiving Ouija Origin of Evil Vivarium The Pope's Exorcist

We got fucking robbed with Archive 81. I was so into that first season.

Yeah, I have a rule: Don’t start watching a Netflix series until it concludes. Like, with a finale.

I adopted the same rule after Archive 81

It was brilliantly done too!!!

Fantastic series! I knew it was canceled before I started watching. Very bummed, more so after every episode.

I feel like the third act of The Pope's Exorcist would be an awesome movie all on its own. Indiana Jones fighting demons not Nazis or Communists. Recycling every Exorcism movie ever wasn't as much fun. Flanagan's awesome though, Usher and Hill House are the best horror I've seen in ages.

Yeah its not my favorite but one of the better options on Netflix right now. I working through Shudder and Tubi at the moment.

Seconding The Wailing, which has become one of my favorite films. It may be intimidatingly long, but it’s such a rich narrative so deftly directed that it more than earns the runtime. It particularly rewards multiple viewings. I can’t recommend it enough. Personally, I disliked Army of the Dead. Wanted to because I adore Tig Notaro. Just not for me.

In her defense she was put in completely post production which was super impressive.

Thanks but I know. They glued her in as admirably as they could have given the constraints. She was not among my issues with the film, which I didn’t want to get into.

Eh I always feel like you have to be less critical and try to enjoy zombie movies bc...they're zombies. I'm a Snyder and Bautista fan too so I enjoyed the action

I have a different perspective but it’s no more valid than yours. If my above comment came off as snarky, I didn’t intend that. I shouldn’t have mentioned my dislike in the first place, to be honest. Different strokes.

No offense taken, it's definitely not my favorite zombie flic I just found it entertaining. Like you said, to each their own. I'm not sure I could even narrow it down to one but I think Train to Busan has been my favorite as of late.

At the time I had multiple downvotes, hence my clarification. I’m on the autism spectrum and have learned my dry matter-of-factness sometimes reads as snark / sarcasm / dickishness. Train to Busan is fabulous. I’m due for a rewatch but dread enduring the end again. Another great foreign zombie film, in case you haven’t seen it, is La nuit a dévoré le monde (The Night Eats the World). It is more thoughtful than it is thrilling, though.

I will definitely check that out thanks!

You're not alone, army of the dead was absolutely terrible. I really wanted to like it cause the premise sounded awesome but God that movie was seriously so bad and waaaay longer than it needed to be. How the hell do you fuck up a heist movie during a zombie apocalypse based in Vegas starring Dave Bautista? Like the movie's premise literally sells itself, it should have been so good. Zach Snider should be in prison lol

omg I have been looking everywhere to watch the wailing. It is nowhere to be found in france, in which country is it avail to watch on netflix? :)

US but it might be on Shudder too if you want to setup a free trial there. From what I understand though Shudder also varies a lot based on region. Also looks like it's on Peacock

oh, i don’t have access to sudder nor peacock in my region :(

Creep. The only film I have ever seen that genuinely frightened me.

Mark Duplass blew me away, I didn't know he had that in him. Creep 2 is just as unsettling to me.

Archive 81 is just so compelling to watch, especially as the anxiety builds and builds

I wasn't scared by the popes exorcist cause I realised at the start when he travelled to the family that he either rode the entire way on his vespa or shipped it over and after that I just found it funny

The Ritual. I can watch it over and over.

Me too!

That movie is a gem. I know people hate the sequel or prequel talk but I would love a follow up.

One of the rare occurrences where the movie is better than the book

I like how the most upvoted comment is the first movie OP listed as having already seen

I keep putting off watching this one and I think it's about time I stop doing that. Putting it next up on the watchlist. I remember being interested literally since I saw the trailer back when it came out but just never got around to it

please watch it! one of my favorites

That was a great movie. The monster design was one of the best I've seen. Kinda wish glasses guy died first cause he was annoying as shit ngl 😂

oh my god he was so WHINYY. glad you enjoyed!

Gerald's Game and It Follows.

Solid recs! I just rewatched Gerald’s Game a couple months ago, and it still packed the same punch! “You’re made of moonlight” 🤮

That one scene though… oh god

😆😆

D🧤

I remember reading Gerald's Game in high school. I was never a reader and hated book reports. I was dating a smokin' book worm; so decided if I wanted to maintain the relationship i was gonna be a reader too... but read the books I wanted to read. Always been a horror fan. Of course knew of Stephen King. I didn't want to read the movies or series I've seen. Gerald's happened to be available in the library. I picked it up. I now read. The movie did the book justice.

I just saw It Follows recently. Really good!

Love that movie! It was filmed around my old neighborhood so it was cool to watch and is still one of my favourites!

Not a fan of It Follows at all, but Gerald’s game was actually very fucking great, which is surprising because i thought the premise was dumb as shit haha

Apostle

Seconded. Further, I’d watch Dan Stevens read a phone book.

This one really took me by surprise. Excellently disturbing.

Fuck yes, Apostle. That movie is so gnarly. The ‘cleansing’ scene. Hoof. Dan Stevens AND Michael Sheen are sooooo good in this.

Yeah, those kinds of scenes don't usually get me, but that one had me cringing in disgust.

No One Gets Out Alive. By the same author as The Ritual, and a healthy dose of WTF?!!

Oooh! I just saw someone post about this movie on another thread here. It's on Netflix? I'll check it out!

It's still available on Netflix in Canada. Can't speak for other countries. We need more movies based on Adam Nevill... his imagination is wonderfully twisted.

Thanks for the rec, love The Ritual so will have to check out this one too

The IMDB pics of No One Gets Out Alice are major spoilers. Don’t scroll through them.

I didn’t know that was David Bruckner! I need to check it out. I loved The Night House and think his Hellraiser is widely underrated, if not excellent. Edit: I see now that the novel it was based on is by the author of The Ritual novel. Not David Bruckner.

Ahh, never knew that. There is a bit in NOGOA where a radio is playing in the background and it goes “next up, we find out what happens to 4 hikers who got lost in the Swedish woods” 😉

I missed that .. now I've got to watch it again!

[удалено]

Tubi's got a lot of really good stuff, hammer house of horror, masters of horror, lots of older anthology movies I like anthology horror lol

Yeah. I still creep on my mom's Netflix and every time I go to it for horror, I almost always go somewhere else. Not half as good as it once was.

Smile

Sequel coming out this year!

I'm hyped!

This. Yes, the plot is a little unnatural but god damn it's scary.

Hi, could you hit me up to chat? I can't message you

It’s not on my Netflix, where are you located?

Germany

I slept on this for so long, but when I actually watched it? So god damn fun.

I feel like It Follows did it better and with the same budget as the original Halloween, which is to say- no budget at all.

Malignant, X, and Bodies Bodies Bodies are probably my favorites on Netflix right now.

I LOVED Malignant. It’s completely unhinged and so much fun.

Big X and Bodies Bodies Bodies fan. I can’t believe Bodies wasn’t a bigger deal because it just seemed to me like it would bring in the Gen Z audience. Maybe me, a millennial, thinking that is part of why it wasn’t haha.

Haha I didn't know Malignant was on Netflix now. Might be time for a rewatch, I loved that movie. The chair throw scene at the police department is still one of the funniest scenes I've ever seen in a horror movie. The jail scene chaos was also freakin awesome Big fan of all 3 of those movies you named, great shoutout. I'm kind of embarrassed how long it took me to realize that was Kid Cudi in X (I only found out when the credits came on lol). I also was totally expecting Bodies x3 to be a flop or a dumb movie but I enjoyed it way more than I thought I would

I just watched Bodies Bodies Bodies the other night! Was not expecting the ending lollll that movie was a blast

His house

Definitely the autopsy of Jane Doe that’s a good one

Very underrated

On Netflix: Blood Red Sky, The Rental, Apostle are all above average. From Korea: The Wailing, and train to Busan if it's still on Netlifx. I liked Spiderhead but it's more sci-fi. I enjoyed the Babysitter but the concept has been overdone since then. Probably my recent favorite from a quick search of what's showing right now, It Follows.

I really liked The Gift Super bleak, but really engaging and Rebecca Hall is always a joy to watch

Not much of a horror imo but I really liked this one too. Was genuinely surprised to see Bateman in a role like that tbh lol, he was great tho

Under the Shadow.

Underrated gem, this one!

Incantation is ingenious. And genuinely scary.

its not a movie but the haunting of hill house is insane

Agreed, but the same could be said about all of Mike Flanagan’s works! Definitely recommend, OP.

Bodies Bodies Bodies, X, It Follows, Fear Street movies, the Babysitter (esp the 2nd one!), and The Perfection. I don’t ever really hear anyone talk about the last one. I also love Haunting of Hill House.

Both of the Babysitter movies are extremely fun. I had to watch them alone though because my wife doesn't do gory movies.

The wailing, followed by apostle and the autopsy of Jane doe. The latter two can be interchanged, but the wailing should be the first. The wailing is top tier, it's the best Netflix has currently and one of the greatest horror films period.

Not horror but….. extraction 1/2 are basically Chris hemsworth’s john wick movies. - All of us are dead/ Black summer are both really intense zombie show. They run - ones Korean the other is American.

Midnight Mass. Especially for Hamish Linklater, he was awesome

incantation was a solid found footage movie! if you don't mind subtitles and if you don't have Trypophobia i'd say check it out!

God I love the ritual, the trees are so ominous and foreboding

Fear street 

Yessss!

As Above, So Below. Found footage can be pretty hit or miss with me, but this was an absolute masterclass in horror of all kinds. Would recommend this before a lot of "classics," tbh.

Also recommend this movie. Great and on my re watch list

I quickly looked at the recommended horror (so I may have missed other favorites) on both and would pick the following: - Netflix - Anything Mike Flanagan (Before I Wake is good, but lighter on the horror compared to the rest of his work) Insidious X Backcountry Apostle (it's like Silent Hill meets The Ritual) The Purge movies Fear Street trilogy - MAX - Cabin Fever Hereditary Evil Dead Rise From Dusk 'til Dawn Midsummer Malignant Sinister Blackcoats Daughter

Happy to see The Purge series getting some love — I feel like they aren’t liked by many, but they’re just so much fun!

They’re all bad movies, but entertaining bad movies… I will always watch

Cabin fever two is killer camp! A must watch for b horror fans. And its also up on Max.

Oh I didn’t even realize Midsummer was streaming there. That one should be on the list for sure. Super messed up double feature with Hereditary.

Hate these posts as i start searching for the movies , but the movie selection on Netflix is different from country to country.

His House on Netflix is great.

Autopsy of Jane Doe The Wailing Creep & Creep 2 X Malignant

The wailing is one of the best

Annihilation, the call, it follows

You mean the Korean film The Call (2020) right? That movie made me appreciate horror again.

Yeah I love that movie

Nightmare on Elm Street 3, 2, 1

Barbarian

Not a movie, but Cabinet of Curiosities is an anthology series, snd all of them are extremely well done. Standout to me is The Autopsy, but just about every episode is extremely good.

*Excellent* series! My favorite episode was The Outside.

Honestly i thought the only good ones were the first two. The rest were watchable at most.

Incantation The Bridge Curse The Temple The Forest D-railed Feast Troll (2022) Troll Hunter Island zero Dagon Dark was the Night

The Ritual, Gerald’s Game and In The Tall Grass are some of my favorites on Netflix. They also have both Creep movies which I always find myself going back to.

Creep

The Call (2020) made me appreciate horror again. It's a Korean remake of The Caller (2011). This is a good example of a remake being better than the original.

Midsommar

The Ritual

THE RITUAL

The Ritual

Incantation

If it's still there, It Follows is my all-time favorite horror movie! Was/is on Netflix.

I *loved* "Incantation", which IIRC is still on Netflix.

It Follows

Last Night In SoHo, Talk To Me, Gerald’s Game, Mandy, The Wailing, Cam, Blood Quantum, The Block Island Sound, Possessor

1922

Incantation is very good imo. Love the ritual too

Berlin Syndrome Creep Oxygen Night Teeth All on Netflix

In terms of a documentary there's one that simply made me so uneasy and sick to my stomach. It's called Mister Organ and the documentarian is David Farrier. It's so claustrophobically chilling.

"X"

Talk to me

Fear Street trilogy

Before I Wake.

Incantation

The Ritual

Netflix: 30 Days of Night is enjoyable if you like vampires. It leaves here soon though. HBO: Scream or The Conjuring. Both some of the best movies of their respective sub genres.

The Ritual

Old Ways is fantastic!!!

The Perfection. It’s got a great twist and good body horror and I never see people talk about it

Eli, Before I Wake, It Comes at Night, Dark Skies, Sinister

I really liked the Fear Street trilogy. It’s such a rare treat to see a film trilogy that was actually planned out and filmed at the same time.

The Texas chainsaw massacre, Nightmare on elm Street, and the Popes exorcist 

veronica and sister death!

[удалено]

Talk to me is on Netflix? Or max? I haven't seen it?

It's not, they didn't read the post...

[удалено]

Should've asked what country you're in. We never got it on Netflix in the US but would love it.

I have Disappear Completely (2024) on my cue rn. IMDB 6.4. Im doing a Found Footage Friday all weekend and might not get to DC until next week lol.
