The HALLOWEENATHON - What HORROR movie(s) are you watching?

[Boo or Boo-urns]

Weird bump, given the date.

Yep, the thread originally started out as a "Halloween film listings on UK TV."

Now if I spot a Horror premiere or a gem/rarity worth watching from the UK schedules, then I'll list it on here to share with fans of the genre.

Aside from Hereditary and Midsommar, I've not seen a 'new classic' horror as good as It Follows.
I'm all ears for new recommends though.

Smile (2022) compares favourably to IT Follows (2014)

Saw that and. though it was a diluted facsimile tbf :(

It follows (whilst borrowing a fair bit from Hallowen) was a breath if fresh air for the genre.
Thought A24 would kick start some genuinely great horror, but some of that has been a bit of a let down.

The new Evil Dead Rise (2023) is good gory fun.

A Wounded Fawn (2022) is a 70's Italian styled serial killer flick worth a watch.

Bones and All (2022) a cannibalism road movie featuring a creepy Mark Rylance.

Watched one earlier called No One Will Save You. About an alien abduction.

One of the strangest endings to a film I’ve seen yet.

Really disappointed in a lot of the "horror" movies of recent years.

"Less is MORE "....something most of them don't seem to get.
