Recent horror films?
Discussion
My Mrs and I used to love getting a few drinks in us on a Saturday night and watching horror films......most of the time they'd end up being rubbish, but occasionally we'd hit a winner or something surprisingly gory (being pissed always made the gore funny but enjoyable)
We rattled through so many over the last few years we kind of ran out of ideas.
Have there been any out in the last year or so we might have missed? I did have a long list on my phone from trailers I'd seen on Youtube but it seems we've ticked most of them off that we could actually find to watch!

Dr Sleep is very good
Its the follow up to the Shining.
hmmm yes the Mrs mentions that one actually, we'll give it a go then. For some reason I just assumed a follow up to the Shining would be rubbish. Its the follow up to the Shining.

A few years old but I'd recommend The VVitch if you haven't seen it.
As you seem to have seen of lot of the recent bunch, what highlights have you found?
The Witch? Yeah saw that. I think the booze didn’t help us enjoy the tension it required. As you seem to have seen of lot of the recent bunch, what highlights have you found?
It’s been quite a while since we came across anything actually scary (again, drinking whilst watching probably doesn’t help!)
In recent memory it’s stuff like the Conjuring, Babadook, Insidious which have been memorable. The very recent stuff has clearly been forgettable as I struggle to think of any. Hereditary, Us....things like that weren’t as good as I hoped.
I’ll have a think about any others, because I must be missing some from all the ones we’ve seen of late.

A couple of films on Shudder and on the usual digital places.
One Cut of the Dead. Low budget Japanese zombie comedy horror. Stick with it past the 'B-movie' first act, don't read up on it, go in cold. It's great.
Host. A group of mates invite a medium to do a seance over Zoom. Filmed and directed remotely during Covid lockdown. Possibly counts as a short film as it's just under an hour.

Seen all three, quiet place was good, the Descent one of my faves ever, 30 days of night I might revisit, that one is very hazy in my memory. A quiet place. 2018

My two recommendations:
RAW: French coming of age body horror cannibalism art house mash up.
IT FOLLOWS: A few years old but very clever and full of jump scares.
I do keep meaning to watch Raw, the Mrs refuses to watch subtitles. Might wait for her to go to bedRAW: French coming of age body horror cannibalism art house mash up.
IT FOLLOWS: A few years old but very clever and full of jump scares.
It follows was good.
A few can recommend.
Terrifier - killer clown, makes Pennywise from IT look like Ronald McDonald, b movie but very gory.
Come Play - kid who can't talk gets haunted by a demon trying to get out of his phone and take him
Run - smothering mother looks after disabled daughter but she's not all what she seems.
You Should have Left - Kevin Bacon hires a house for the weekend for his family but then weird stuff starts to happen.
Orphan - bit older but quite enjoyable, family adopt a foreign girl who seems perfect but then trouble starts to follow her around.
Body Cam - strange entity starts killing cops, when one cop who has just come back from suspension tries to figure out what's going on.
