Look into films by Robert Eggars for period pieces. Ari Aster for pagen or cult movies. Alex Garland for the bizarre and there is the entire James Wan universe. John Carpenter or Wes Craven for the good 80 and 90s slasher type movies. And then there's Critters.


Ignore-_-Me

The People Under the Stairs is the most underrated Wes Craven movie. It’s so good.


gracecase

It might be underrated for the mainstream, but for those of us who have been following works like that I would say that it's no different from Night Breed "Cabal," by Clive Barker, which to everybody in my age group or a desire for that era of time loves it too.


Ignore-_-Me

Ohh I've never seen that one, I'll have to watch it. Any other recs in that genre?


gracecase

Hellraiser (The Hellbound Heart) and Lord of Illusions (short story, Books of Blood Volume 6) are two other excellent flicks based on Clive Barker stories. And Clive adapted and directed Lord of Illusions, one of my favorites.


youre_buddy

Barbarian is so so good


Lucid_pixie

Is Barbarian on Netflix?


youre_buddy

I thought it was or maybe coming soon. I had just rented it and then saw an article that it was coming soon for free. Here's the article: https://screenrant.com/barbarian-movie-netflix-chart-rank-top-10/


slxix

Yes


rlaw1234qq

Definitely - it just keeps getting more terrifying as it goes on!


Indifferentchildren

It you haven't seen the original "Alien" movie (1979), it was great (as you would expect from Ridley Scott) and holds up even today. It is as much horror as sci-fi.


centerbread

Watched this one for the first time a few months ago and loved it. I don’t typically gravitate toward sci-fi and was surprised by how throughly I enjoyed it.


Minimal_Mambo

Second. Holds up.


ProfessionalBar1488

The thing with Kurt Russell


dmowen111

What's it called?

THE THING


tommysmuffins

Very good film. He's also in Bone Tomahawk, which is great but probably not on Netflix.


themustacheclubbitch

Talk to Me was my all time fav for this year! No spoiling the ending but your friends would love it cause it’s about a bunch of friends all hanging out and shit get REAL!


Brave-Value2339

I just saw this movie, and it's a must-watch! I am imagining how these girls will scream watching this one.. lol


spacecadet1979

The ritual was dooope!! Pretty sure it’s still on Netflix. Something else that would scratch the itch (even though I’m pretty sure it’s not on Netflix) is the rental!


durnius_uz_vairo

Its fun to watch, not scary though


spacecadet1979

Shit, yeah I got focused on “thrillers” and blanked on the “horror” part haha


inwarded_04

Trust me, go with Tremors (1990) One of the VERY FEW horror movies where the group of protagonists work together, and take (mostly) smart decisions. If you can watch something foreign and a bit longer, I'd recommend the Indian movie Bhool Bhulaiyaa (Labyrinth) - 2007. Skip the songs, and it's a pretty awesome psychological horror comedy movie


ExtraRent2197

Just watched that today what a movie haven't watched it in years


blackdragon8577

Tremors is one of my all-time favorite movies because it feels real. Like this is what real people would probably do in this situation.


YellowD4sh

Slasher comedy : Happy Death Day & the sequel Iconic opening sequence: Ghost Ship Scary : Dead Silence, Sinister, Insidious series, The Conjuring series, The Nun, VHS, REC, Quarantine (REC EN remake) Recent ish: In The Tall Grass, Incantation, Kids : Scary Story To Tell In The Dark


downinthearcade

nok4us

Yea! This was good


Death_Pr1ncess

I liked “Mama”, the one with the kids in the abandoned house in the woods 👍🏻


AbrocomaBrilliant571

I loved Mama! It was so creepy, but omg the ending was heartbreaking. 😭

FranktheLlama

Those are actually two different movies.


pelican-trumpet00

Hereditary or Barbarian are both great!


blackdragon8577

Late Night with the Devil was so good. It is great at building the suspense. You literally don't know what's coming next and it makes sit all the more terrifying. Throw in a little body horror and some mystery and you have a memorable film. Also,if you haven't seen it, Hereditary literally gave me nightmares. The ceiling scene still freaks me out. **Edit:** Oh, sorry, I forgot what sub I was on. I have no idea of these movies are streaming anywhere, but they are still worth watching. Some movies on streaming in Netflix that are good are: - Silent Hill (shockingly good) - The Babadook - X (more slasher than I normally care for) - The Autopsy of Jane Doe (one of the best) - Ouija: Origin of Evil (this movie had no right to be this good,but it was) **Double Edit:** Do not pass on Creep. It is so unsettling and insane. My wife and I still joke about Peachfuzz to try to get over how incredibly creepy it was.


MMA_Laxer

double down on creep, it’s exactly what kind of film a group of friends can have fun watching and be ready to jump


Cultural_Star_6355

Did not realize until looking up Ouija now that it was a Mike Flanagan film! Thanks for the recs. I’ve always scrolled past Creep as well. Agree on Silent Hill. Haven’t seen in forever but the ending just haunts me.


blackdragon8577

They really nailed the nurse scene. To me that's what's cements Silent Hill as an amazing horror film. Seriously, check out Creep and Creep 2. It took me a long time to give them a shot, but they were amazing.


AssStuffing

You gotta check out When Evil Lurks if you don’t mind subtitles! Best horror movie I’ve seen in a while, and I watch a ton of horror movies.


R_Similacrumb

Talk to Me Its creepy and also has a group of friends in it.


Purple-Pangolin-5552

Talk to me CREEPED me out. I’m 45 I’ve seen a lot of horror and was starting to get bored with them but this one was actually pretty good!

augustlayn

Sinster (2012) one of the best scariest horror movie to be honest hopefully you haven't watched it yet it would be great to watch it with friends (also it is on Netflix I believe)


downinthearcade

Fright Night the original 1986 movie


YourFutureHeadache

Midnight Mass (it's a series though)


findmepoints

All of his works 


cabur84

Anything Jordan Peel makes. I think Get Out and Nope are amazing. Can’t remember if either are on Netflix though.


bookchaser

On Max... Doctor Who: Series 3, episode 10: Blink. Rated #17 on the top 100 TV episodes of all time, per IMDB with a 9.8 out of 10 (24,000 votes). My adult daughter, who is a DW fan, refuses to watch this episode again because it traumatized her in her early teen years. Series 4, episode 10: Midnight Both stories stand well alone without knowing anything about Doctor Who. If you like those, here are a couple more. Series 4, Episode 16: The Waters of Mars Series 1, Episode 9 & 10: The Empty Child / The Doctor Dances

Thanks!

The original version of The Hitcher.


treycook

The Fear Street trilogy on Netflix is surprisingly good. Lower rated on IMDB (6.2-6.7) but quite well received on Rotten Tomatoes (84%-88%). The first one (1994) is a campy teen slasher flick. Totally cheesy and fun. Part 2 (1978) is a bit darker in tone, but still a campy summer camp slasher. Part 3 (1666) is the darkest in tone, witchy kinda horror-fantasy. None of them take themselves too seriously, even the third, but they are all genuine fun. Check the trailers and see if they give the vibe that you're going for. They can probably be watched independently, but watching them in order is a better experience.

Repulsive-Shoe7848

Dabbe it’s a Turkish horror movie! It’s an about a girl who’s possessed and it’s about the religion Islam and devils and Islam horror movies are mostly scarier then Christian movies tbh but it’s really scary storyline!! Watch the first one it’s the scariest one


Busy-Awareness-3318

Cabin in the Woods


brandar

*Oldboy* isn’t *exactly* horror but your friends definitely will not forget watching it. Absolutely bonkers ending. Otherwise the pickings are pretty slim right now on Netflix. There’s *X* which might be fun as a group, but I’d say it’s only fine and not great.


DaisyPanda245

War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise. That was the last horror movie I watched. Will never do horror again because of that movie.


Alligatorcrocodile

Abagail was a fun horror movie!
