John Carpenter's Apocalypse trilogy (The Thing, Prince of Darkness, In the Mouth of Madness) - Some of my favorites. Has that 80s horror movie style with damn near perfect execution.

Re-Animator (the first one) - Also an 80s classic. Loosely based off the Lovecraft story.

Color out of Space (with Nicolas Cage) - Modernized adaptation of the Lovecraft story. Done quite well. Gorgeous visuals

Mandy - Super trippy horror movie, also with Nicolas Cage

Silent Hill (2006) - Games are way better than the movie and the movie's story doesn't follow the games at all, but it has a good atmosphere. This movie got me into the games to begin with.

Jacob's Ladder - A fantastic, vibey movie that leaves you guessing what's going to happen next.

Annihilation - One of my favorites.

Red State - A fantastic horror movie directed by the most unlikely of people (Kevin Smith)

The Mist (2007) - Steven King adaptation directed by Frank Darapont. Need I say more?

Se7en - A classic

Oculus - No relation to the VR company. Great movie with a great story.

Funny Games - The definition of fucked up. This is the only movie that made me feel angry after watching it. It's amazing.

One Hour Photo - The only horror movie I was unable to finish due to Robin William's excellent performance.

I Saw the Devil - An excellent revenge plot. Gory to all hell.

Tucker and Dale vs Evil - Horror comedy. Fantastic

Shawn of the Dead - Same as above

Cabin in the Woods - Mix between a horror comedy and an actual horror movie.

Troll 2 - If you like "so bad, it's good" movies, check this one out.

Did you read the series Annihilation? Curious what you thought about the books vs the movie. Oddly, I liked the movie better. Books were a bit too abstract(?) for me

No, I only watched the movie
