Freaks 1932

Michael Proch

Hell yes, that was my favorite horror film of 2022

Michael Proch

Hell yes! I've been singing this shows praises for years, I'd die if James watched it. The episodes are short, and there's only three seasons.

The Chosen

Please, please, PLEASE look at "Mr Inbetween" it is an amazing series, truly phenomenal acting and writing, and it is still under the radar in general, despite being the best show to come out of Australia. Trust me you won't regret it if you start watching this.

I consolidated my picks: Fright Night Coma Shadow of the Vampire Homicidal Single White Female Lake Placid

The Visit is a great one, genuinely scary and funny, and one of the most visually interesting uses of found-footage style

Michael Proch

What’s up?

Sonia Deepak

Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) - all star cast and Francis Ford Coppola directing. It pays homage to classic "hammer horror" films The Others (2001) - wonderful example of how to do a haunted house film.

JL Green

💯 That's why I suggested it 😆

Linda

Salem's Lot freaked me out. 😄

MsKofi

If you want to laugh try Blacula or A Vampire in Brooklyn

ChloeGameDev

I would like to second The Descent (very scary) and What We Do in the Shadows (very funny). Both have some cool cinematography!

Tim C

I literally dreamt last night that you watched Dick Tracy. So I’m going to manifest that & put it out there!

Chaos T

After watching the first episode of Uzumaki, this anime is perfect for October. It's also one of the few anime where the dub is probably worth watching more than the sub because the art and animation are extremely important to focus on.

ryan

The Empty Man is a great and underrated and weird horror film

Maurissa Fields

Mimic. Baby Blues 2008

Jordan

The Descent Apostle Barbarian Green Inferno The Black Phone Doctor Sleep Autopsy of Jane Doe 1408 Ju-On not horror, but fun recommendation: Hobo with a Shotgun

James Adams

Italy! 🇮🇹

Michael Proch

Love Kill List. That movie really snuck up behind me because I didn’t realize it was going to be a horror movie.

Michael Proch

Oooh, Frailty. Don’t hear people talking about that one enough.

Ken North

Baskin

Natalie Cook

Yay! Waiting for the Sunny drop 👀🥰🍿

Megan Donnelly

I’ll suggest What We Do in the Shadows (movie not tv show) as a good Halloween watch! Or Young Frankenstein.

James Edwards

Michael Proch

If you took a photo of my face right before watching The Wailing and then immediately after, you’d think I’d have died

Cliff Douglas

Hope you don't mind. Not trying to be nosey but where did you vacation at? In the tropics? Because it looks pretty chill. I am looking to take a long due out of country vacation for the first time.

Leric

smile evil dead (2013) talk to me

Nata Xano

When Evil Lurks 2023, Argentinian film very very disturbing if you wanna watch something crazy fr lol

Michael Proch

I second the original [REC], subbed not dubbed. If you can’t find the subbed version then it’s not worth it

Kishavo

[REC] (2007) - make sure it’s the original version with Spanish audio and English subtitles. The dubbed version is ass It’s a found footage zombie movie set in Barcelona that follows a journalist tagging along with a fire department’s night shift. The acting is so believable (the main character was an actual TV reporter) and the camerawork is top tier (chaotic but with a lot of attention to detail). The set is cool too; almost everything takes place in a 5 story apartment building. The last stretch of the movie was some of the most terrifying shit I’d ever seen (i’ve seen it so many times now that i’m numb lol) another two that i think are great for reactors: Grave Encounters (2011) - basically “what if the crew of a ghost-hunting show ended up trapped with real ghosts?”. Strong nostalgia factor depending on how old you are. Sinister (2012) - great score and SO much ATMOSPHERE. Grungy, spooky, a bit cursed. Has what everybody online says is the best jumpscare of all time. hope you had a fun trip, and welcome back!

Michael Proch

Okay you already watched Cure, so I’ve gotta recommend “Pulse” from the same director. “Caché” is another really great dark French thriller. And if you want some more Cronenberg, I’ve gotta recommend “Existenz”, “Crash”, and “Dead Ringers” as three great ones I don’t think you’ve done yet.

RICHARD

James, my man, how have you not reacted to Hitchcock's Rear Window? Fantastic thriller for October.

Tetley

Was on the sci-fi poll a couple of times but didn't get any love. Great little movie though.

Tetley

Welcome back James! Really psyched for some curb reactions. Couple of horror suggestions. Goodnight mommy (2014) and Speak No Evil (2022). Two Euro modern horror classics. Guaranteed to give you chills and also make you think.

Tetley

I'll second berberian sound studio

LeBrigand

"Bram Stoker's Dracula" (1992) by Francis Ford Coppola. This film is particularly interesting from a filmmaking perspective, because all the special effects were made using old school on-set and in-camera techniques, like multiple exposures, forced perspective, and so on, basically only effects that would have been possible to achieve at very end of the 19th century, when the story takes place. It makes this movie weirdly timeless.

Megan Donnelly

Cannot wait for Curb!!

Brett Coster

Some suggestions: The Cabinet of Dr Caligari (1920) - setting the standard for horror Nosferatu (1922) - especially as Robert Eggers' remake is coming out this year Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979) - Werner Herzog's remake Any of the original Universal Horror movies of the 1930s Peeping Tom (1960) - The film that came out just before Psycho but didn't do as well Ravenous (1999) - loosely based on the Donner Party of 1847, but with added Wendigo A Tale of Two Sisters (2003) - Korean horror at its best

Kaitlin

Hell yes to The Innocents

Martin Heron

The Others (2001) - just a terrific, very classically styled ghost story with Nicole Kidman. The Guest (2014) - some more Lance Reddick! But also a top notch John Carpenter-riffing slow burn.

Kelvin

Horror Suggestions: The Innocents (1961) The Night House (2020) Noroi: The Curse (2005) Ghostwatch (1991) Deadstream (2022) Pontypool (2008) Exhuma (2024) In the Mouth of Madness (1994) When Evil Lurks (2023) Late Night with the Devil (2023) Uzumaki (2000)

Rant Casey

Kill List

Lindeman

Welcome back, hope you had a great trip! My suggestion for a creepy movie that I think you would enjoy is Trolljegeren(Troll Hunter) 2010. It's a lesser known Norwegian movie that really delivers above its budget and has gotten a bit of a cult following.

Virgo

Stir of Echoes, In the Mouth of Madness, Pet Sematary (1989), The Others, Dead Ringers, The House of the Devil, Tales From the Hood, Wolf Creek, The Loved Ones, The Exorcism of Emily Rose

Virgo

I love Vampire''s Kiss so much. People get pissed when I say that, and insinuate I am trying to be different or unique lmao

Alex Thrailkill

Tucker & Dale vs. Evil (2010) rewatch Late Night with the Devil (2024) Less popular, and definitely polarizing, but I loved “In a Violent Nature” (2024)

Zach Moroney

Possessor (2020) is a great body horror / thriller. Get the uncut version though!

James Adams

Yes be on the lookout today homie!

Moustache Rousse

Oh and welcome back dude hope you had fun.

Moustache Rousse

Year 2 of asking for Rob Zombies trilogy : House of a 1000 corpses / The devil's rejects / 3 from hell

Keegan Duffy

Welcome back James! Love getting into some creepy vibe movies in October. Going to hit you with some of my favourites that I don't think you've hit yet. Apologies in advance if this is too many / too much info :) Enjoy the season! 1. Sinister (2012) - Legit scary and Ethan Hawke is the man. Would love your POV on the direction and cinematography and why it works so well to make the atmosphere in this movie. 2. In the Mouth of Madness (1994) - My favourite John Carpenter outside of The Thing. Super creepy and fun cosmic horror mind bender. 3. Fresh (2022) - New, fun, and under appreciated. Daisy Edgar-Jones and Sebastian Stan are great. 4. When Evil Lurks (2023) - Want to be legitimately freaked out? Watch this crazy Spanish horror movie. Interesting new take on demons.

The American Captain

Carrie (1976) or Last Night in Soho (2021)?

Foggy

can we get the uncut reactions for these last office ep you posted?

Ben Walker

Check out Longlegs, James! It’s a divisive one, but me and many of my friends loved it. I hope you do too.

Kaitlin

I Saw The TV Glow (2024) - very spooky and moving

cindygrape

The Others with Nicole Kidman is perfect for this time of year! The atmosphere, the spooks and most of all the story is chefs kiss! Can't recommend enough

Mister Lou

Late Night With The Devil

YourWineStopLAKENORMAN

In the Mouth of Madness

Dee

Love that jacket. Looking good! ❤️

James Adams

Appreciate the patience! 🙏🏽🙏🏽

James Adams

Next Sunday! I’ll be watching them this week now that I’m back 🙏🏽

Justin Broadbent

the descent one of the best horror movies

BadBoyBeta

John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness (1987). And John Carpenter's In the Mouth of Madness(1994). And if you're looking to scratch a werewolf itch: Dog Soldiers (2002).

a.n.w

Braindead Basket Case The Descent Peeping Tom (the first slasher!)

Carl Lyngholm

Climax (2018), directed by the same filmmaker who did Enter the Void for something a little of out left-field. Intense psychological horror with a great soundtrack and (increasingly disturbing) dance sequences. Would also qualify for Foreign Film Horror.

Cody Price

I would normally give more description , but both of these films are better if you go into it as blind as possible. Don’t even watch the trailers, or read the descriptions.

j francis m

seconded, especially for Dead Ringers

a.n.w

I vote for Braindead!!!

Leia Camilla

Other horror films that come to mind are Pulse, Noroi, and Skinamarink

Leia Camilla

Braindead! (aka Dead Alive) There's also an anime adaptation of Junji Ito's Uzumaki that JUST started, finally I hope The Sopranos wins on a near future TV show poll also

Max Hylton

I’ll check em out. Eden Lake would be a good one to do. Super suspenseful and kinda infuriating but great. Michael Fassbender is great in it

Ian M

Welcome back! Hope you had a great time in Italy! Looking forward to diving back into the Wire with you.

Chris Shine

The Wailing is a horror masterpiece!

Lewish

Very much agreed on Wallace & Gromit!!

Penultimate Tommy Wiseau

The greatest Nic Cage acting performance that I can think of, Vampire's Kiss (1988) & Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005) Both are super fun and on the lighter side "Halloween Horror"

Kaitlin

Welcome back! :D Addams Family Values (1993) Doctor Sleep (2019)

Jason Cooley

Gonna go Cronenberg: The Dead Zone (1983) and Dead Ringers (1988). Two Deads!

YourWineStopLAKENORMAN

Hope you enjoyed your vacay! Just wanna know when to expect the Wire S1 finale eps. Should we expect them today OR next Sunday? thx

Interloper ChocolateCity

Motel Hell or Maybe " Out of the Mouth of Madness"

James Adams

I believe I have actually! Check it out on the channel!

James Adams

Thanks for the added description! I think I’ve watched sinister before but not all of it. Just something that appeared on tv so it’ll be nice checking out its entirety!

Max Hylton

You should do either the original or the 2018 version of Suspiria. I prefer the newer one

James Adams

🙏🏽🙏🏽

James Adams

Noted!! 🤘🏽

James Adams

Larry David is awesome so I’m really hyped to finally get to it!

Reid Mclellan

Again, recommend you check out Vacancy (2007) cool eeire flick for Halloween that is perfect for just watching a horror movie with no other expectations in the best possible way. Sinister (2012) great acting, actually scary horror movie (IMO) Can't emphasize the acting, music, and general creepy atmosphere enough, perfect for a spooky Halloween watch
