The Exorcist III (1990) Director: William Peter Blatty

https://youtu.be/BXsj26KH4jk?si=P6s7PBB0ia1IcrVG

Set years after the original Exorcist, this one follows Lieutenant Kinderman (George C. Scott) as he investigates a series of murders eerily similar to the work of a serial killer who’s supposed to be long dead. The trail leads him into a psychiatric ward, where something is clearly not what it seems. Largely dismissed upon release, the film has gained a cult-following and newfound appreciation over the years. Blatty’s direction is patient and precise, culminating in one of horror’s all-time great jump scares.

The Girl in Cabin 13 (2021) Director: Brendan Rudnicki

A social-media influencer retreats to a remote cabin to clear her head after a breakup, only to realize she’s being stalked by someone — or something — outside her walls. What follows is a minimalist survival horror that hinges on tension and isolation. The Girl in Cabin 13 doesn’t reinvent the genre, but it does remind you why the “alone in the woods” setup still works: because it’s timelessly terrifying.

A Werewolf in England (2020) Director: Charlie Steeds

Two convicts on the run seek refuge in a decrepit countryside inn, only to find that the locals are hiding a hairy secret. Soon, the night explodes into chaos as they realize they’re trapped inside with a pack of werewolves. A Werewolf in England might not be refined, but it’s full of personality — a throwback creature feature made by people with a reverence for the genre.

Night of the Living Dead (1968) Director: George A. Romero

When the dead start walking, a group of strangers barricades themselves in a farmhouse, trying to survive the night as chaos spreads outside. That setup has been copied thousands of times, but rarely matched. Night of the Living Dead is low-budget ingenuity turned into cultural lightning — a film that turned zombies into metaphors for everything from racism to mass hysteria. Romero’s handheld style and grainy black-and-white visuals only make it feel more real. The result? One of the most influential horror films of all time.

Hush (2016) Director: Mike Flanagan

A deaf woman living alone in the woods becomes the target of a masked killer — but what could have been a straightforward home-invasion story turns into something far smarter and tenser. Mike Flanagan, known for his Netflix haunts like The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass, turns silence into weapon and strategy, forcing both character and viewer to adapt to a world where every vibration counts. Kate Siegel (who co-wrote) plays the protagonist with total command: clever, terrified, and defiant in equal measure. Watch it with the lights off and the sound way up.

Nosferatu (1922) Director: F.W. Murnau

Whether you’re more familiar with the Werner Herzog version or Robert Eggers’ recent remake, the story of the 1922 silent original remains the same: an estate agent travels to Transylvania to close a deal with the reclusive Count Orlok, unaware that his new client is a vampire — one who soon brings a plague of death back to his seaside town. More than a century after its release, F.W. Murnau’s unauthorized Dracula adaptation still feels otherworldly, thanks to its dreamlike imagery and Max Schreck’s skeletal, inhuman performance. A seminal example of German Expressionism, it’s silent cinema at its most haunting and pure.

Under the Bed (2012) Director: Steven C. Miller

Two brothers reunite in their old family home, where a childhood monster still lurks beneath the bed. What begins as a supernatural tale of boogeymen slowly reveals itself to be a story about the scars families don’t talk about. Director Steven C. Miller leans into ‘80s-style practical effects, creating a world that feels both suburban and surreal. And when the creature finally shows itself, it’s satisfyingly grotesque.

Horns (2013) Director: Alexandre Aja

https://youtu.be/B8s_1UcdoNI?si=mEcb2otpkWdk78K6

After his girlfriend is murdered, Ig (Daniel Radcliffe) becomes the town’s prime suspect — and then wakes up with horns sprouting from his head. As people around him start confessing their darkest impulses, Ig sets out to find the real killer and clear his name. Forging a dark fairy tale about grief and guilt, director Alexandre Aja balances humor, horror, and heartbreak in equal measure, while Radcliffe gives one of his most fearless post-Potter performances.
