In my eyes, no other film in the genre comes close in brutality and horror. The cinematography, effects and tone are completely dreadful and still as terrifying as when it first came out. “It remains, to this day, the best ‘infection, zombie-esque’ film produced.

For most of the film you’re just unsettled and unnerved, but the last 10 minutes is just pure terror.

A horror movie truly needs to be a psychological thriller at the same time or it loses its punch.” - _celli 10. Unlike today’s standards, they don’t resort to cheap thrills and jump scares. I’d say The Conjuring and Sinister are my two favorite modern horror films. It wasn’t the best movie, but it was super creative and unique IMO. The end was such a mind fuck it made me question life.

Plus I think it has a nice twist at the end.” - creativedabbler 9. Joan Crawford is great too, but this is Bette’s movie for sure. “One of my favorites of all time- What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? The story is great, and Bette Davis is a master at playing a complete psycho. “The Descent is scary on two levels the monsters and the claustrophobia.” - XrangerX123 8. What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? Other stuff makes me not want to turn the lights off, but those movies made me want to sit in a corner with my wrecking bar.” - GJokaero 7. The Descent Fucking hell that is one scary movie, the only other horror movies that have actually scared me are Silent Hill and Close Encounters Of The Fourth Kind. Didn’t have to be supernatural at all to be creeped out about the catacombs.” - Flyplanehigh 6. Bone Tomahawk “I really liked As Above, So Below on Netflix. Horror is most effective when it succeeds at creating an atmosphere of discomfort and dread, and Eraserhead does exactly that, better than any movie I’ve ever seen.” - thurn_und_taxis 5. “Eraserhead – even if it’s not exactly horror, I found it to be absolutely terrifying.
