I have been on a scary movie adventure and would love other suggestions!
Midsommar is one of my favorites, or you could try It Follows if you haven’t seen either of those. Midsommar is a slow burn intrigue sort of thing, but quite realistic, most of the most horrifying things about it could happen to you for real.
It Follows is a very creative movie, very much about the fear of being chased by an entity that never stops, extremely interesting premise
Midsommar is great but I rank it a lot lower on my tier list after watching the original 70s Wicker Man
I feel like Hereditary and Midsommer have similar vibes for some reason even though the plots are not at all similar
Same director, probably what you’re feeling there is a sum of little touches. I liked the first half of Hereditary quite a bit, didn’t really like where it ended up, got too fantastical for my tastes, I like pulp horror too, but I really really like horror that’s plausible
I love Event Horizon. I also love the theory that it takes place in the Warhammer 40k universe.
If you haven’t already, check out the V/H/S/ series if you’re a fan of anthology films and/or found footage. It’s easily my favorite FF series. The newest film, V/H/S/ 1985 came out last week and is awesome, but you can’t go wrong with any of them (except maybe the third one).
I’d personally recommend VHS 1994 to start with because I think it’s the most accessible and least offensive entry in the franchise
The Void is great if you like campy lovecraftian stuff
You ever seen 1408? Great movie, it’s a Stephen King. I think I’m gonna rewatch that one tonight
