I love horror movies and I’ve seen quite a few but I’m always looking for new stuff to watch. I have Netflix and Hulu and I also have Apple TV so I have access to a lot of different media I’m just looking for good suggestions. If you’re a horror film fan post your favorites.

My top 10 are
Event Horizon
Sphere
The Exorcist
The Omen
Evil Dead (all 3)
The Reanimator
The Shining
The Amityville Horror
Texas Chainsaw
The Entity
 
House of 1000 Corpses
The Devil's Rejects
Child's Play (only the first one)
Saw (first one)

A new favorite, "The Bad Batch"
Not really "horror" but more a mix of Mad Max meets House of 1000 Corpses, with a little Fear and Loathing and a little Quinton Tarantino mixed in:

The Conjuring 1 and 2 and Insidious 1 and 2 are some of the best I've ever seen. All are directed by James Wan who is a great director. He also directed the first Saw, Furious 7, and most recently Aquaman.

I personally ignored all the various spinoffs and sequels not directed by Wan but your mileage may vary.

Just remembered one more- The Cabin in the Woods, written and directed by Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard, not to be confused with Cabin in the Woods directed by Eli Roth.

I really do not like sequels either like the Saw movies. Saw 1 was awesome and the rest sucked. Same thing with Nightmare on Elm Street, one was incredible and the rest suffered. Best example is the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the first was incredible and the rest were comically terrible.
 
Allot of the new horror films, if not most are just crap for me to watch. Way too much emphasis now on fast camera work, trash music, and excess gore.

I do have a soft spot for the French film Them [2006] which has no gore, but builds up suspense from start to finish.

Please give me more! I’ve watched so many and I’m craving so much more! Give me ideas I have Netflix and I have Hulu.
 
Try them, its subtitled, its chilling I think. I actually liked the original Blair Witch Project, much better then the majority of these big budget piles of shiet.

These remakes are also terrible. The old poltergeist was good, the new one .... WTF was that about?

I believe some of the better horrors are not in the English language, try for Korean & Japanese.

Yes I’ve been hitting up the Japanese and Korean films big time. There’s so much more creative than anything I’ve seen in the USA. One of my favorites is the original Ringu from Japan. The Ring was a great movie but the original so much better
