I think this is a great horror year because I loved The Substance but I was blown away by Late Night With the Devil. Plus we also had Longlegs and Alien: Romulus. I just thought Late Night had great pacing, really interesting characters, and it got my entire theater to scream out loud at the end. David Dastmalchian just knocks it out of the park. Lots of great stuff this year

Late Night With The Devil was great (even with the AI controversy)
Longlegs was also a really fun watch - gotta love Nicholas Cage.
The Substance might be the best film according to the critical/audience consensus. Personally did think it was very good but I might have enjoyed Alien Romulus more subjectively as a big fan of that franchise.
Longlegs was style over substance for me. I think it does tell quite an engaging story about childhood trauma but the dialogue in the 2nd half does a lot of undermine all the good build up.
Longlegs was such a disappointment to me. It was hyoed up and I thought it would be really great but it did not meet expectations.
Smile 2
Climate change? US politics? The wars in … oh, you mean movies. Never mind.
Haha good points
“Longlegs.” I still need to see “Smile 2,” “Red Rooms,” “Heretic” and “Late Night With the Devil,” though.
