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

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.

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.

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

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