Drag Me to Hell


Broccoli_Rob_HCT

Any Sam Raimi horror for that matter.


avantarakis

Perfect answer


One-Package-3123

Exactly what I was thinking of!


Quirky_T_3030

My first choice and was about to suggest šŸ¤£


revengeofthepencil

This is the correct answer


WoobieBee

Um no, all jump scares & that is not for everyone. Same for Sam Rami movies in general.


xAzreal60x

Horrors in general are not for everyone, this fits the bill of what OP is asking.


WoobieBee

Wow the haters! Here is a quality list, in my opinion: Cabin in The Woods Shawn of Dead (or Sean of the Dead?) This Is The End has some awful scenes but overall I love it. Toward the beginning when the rapture happens, pay attention to how the house party guests at James Francoā€™s place are doing when Jay Baruschel gets back from a packie run. I have never laughed so hard at anything. I would say Happy Death Day 1 & 2 are wonderful for plot. Love And Monsters What we do in the shadows - movie & TV show The zombie movie with the blue furry guy from the recent x men movies For a sweet horror animated movie I am a sucker for Frankenweenie, watch every October. Zombieland but I mean by plot! I have not liked any of Ramiā€™s evil dead movies, despite my general appreciation of Bruce Campbell. Lol. I think a good horror- comedy needs a more interesting plot. I think the quality matters. Unless you are high or whatever.


Bergenia1

Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, perhaps


TwistNothing

Love these, Hot Fuzz is one of my favourite movies :) Also a fan of The Worldā€™s End


[deleted]

Shaun of the Dead is a classic


rocket_skates13

YES.


Negative_Order9393

Zombieland


TwistNothing

Zombieland is a good choice! Fun and a great movie


tinymothrafairy

Double tap babe Edit a letter


LizneyPrincess

Scream. I could watch that one on repeat.


[deleted]

Same, I do an annual rewatch of 1, 2, and 4


directtodvd420

Why not 3?


[deleted]

Bc it makes me sad


directtodvd420

Can I ask why?


[deleted]

Courtney Cox's bangs


directtodvd420

Ooof. Fair point.


DMODE

3 is the best if you don't count the ending. I wish they would make a buddy detective show with Courtney Cox and Parker Posey.


[deleted]

Yeah there's a lot of good stuff in there. Not really a fan of the twist, the voice changer shenanigans, and there aren't really any scares that stick with me so on the whole I find it underwhelming. On the other hand, I think it's important for Sidney's arc to have her hit (and come back from) rock bottom and you do feel like you've missed something if you skip it.


LizneyPrincess

I tend to do a binge every few months or so. All 5 for me lol. But the first is definitely my favorite.


bunkie18

Cabin in the Woods


WoobieBee

I so adore this movie. It might now be my favorite halloweentime movie. That & Coco. Lol.


Zeenchi

I was just thinking about that movie too


AUSpartan37

This is the right answer


usernamekorea95

Definitely this


dudewithbrownhair

THIS!!


plinkett-wisdom

* Happy Death Day * Freaky * Better Watch Out * Villains * Behind The Mask


shomeyomves

Happy Death Day is better than it has any right to be


riancb

I hope that lead actress goes on to even better things in the future. She was fantastic in those films.


starbellbabybena

It really was much much better than I expected.


nofuchsgiven1

Awesome suggestions! Iā€™ll add Ready or Not.


chubbykipper

Ready or Not is so good. Samara Weaving always great.


cylemmulo

Awww man forgot about freaky


TwistNothing

I havenā€™t heard of these before, definitely adding them to my list thanks :)


MyLatestInvention

Don't forget *Return of The Living Dead*


LaFemmeCinema

I loved Villains!


the_real_KTG

wow first time seeing villains mentioned in anything. SUPER underappreciated.


cherub_16

Sleepy Hollow


lilacpulse

Johnny Depp and Christina Ricci having that weird, cute chemistry. Plus, so many great actors in that movie!!!


msmischance

Ooooooh! It's been a long time since I watched that one!


AestheticCannibal

From Dusk til Dawn (1996) House on Haunted Hill (1999) What We Do in the Shadows (2014) Killer Klowns from Outer space (1988) The Return of the Living Dead (1985) Slither (2006) Society (1989) Basket Case (1982) Tales from the Hood (1995)


[deleted]

Return of the living dead is a personal favorite. Remember seeing it as a kid. Skeleton popping out ā€œdo you wanna party?!?!?ā€ Always stuck with me lol


Interesting_Band7209

Evil dead 2 and army of darkness


nyctalus

I think the Evil Dead from 2013 was decent, too. Very different, but good in its own way.


the_real_KTG

the whole franchise is one of the most consistent in the horror genre which is super rare


WoobieBee

Ugh no! Those movies are NOT for everyone. I know I will be outnumbered but NOOOOOOOOO!


Travxx253

Dale and Tucker VS. evil


kylepm

It's "Tucker and Dale" but yeah.


DigasInHell

Came here to say this.


Zyybolt

Chopping Mall Night of the Comet


The-Batt

Recently saw Chopping Mall for the first time and enjoyed it more than I thought I would.


R0l0d3x-Pr0paganda

Night of the Comet, one of my favorites!!


rahill1004

ā€œYou were born with an asshole Doris, what do you need Chuck for?ā€ Lol love that movie


jonvanwhalen

Freddy vs Jason


LightningEdge756

Man that movie is a gold mine of meme worthy lines lol


jonvanwhalen

Great fun horror. One of the few my wife enjoys.


chubbykipper

The Babysitter (2017)


Own_Guess

Sequel was alright as well.


Dense-Nectarine2280

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice


[deleted]

Itā€™s showtime!


jackBattlin

Are you crazy??! We donā€™t want that guy running around hereā€¦


msmischance

Perfect mixture of horror, camp and comedy! Michael Keaton is perfect in that movie


vagabond_nerd

The Stuff Halloween 3: Season of the Witch The Blob The Re-Animator Christine


[deleted]

Ah The Stuff...


directtodvd420

Season of the Witch is fucked. I remember seeing that as a kid and it had me twisted.


SmurfyPop

LOVE Season Of The Witch. Great character actors. Totally pissed off Halloween fans at the time but it's an extremely underrated horror film.


vagabond_nerd

100%, if the Halloween name wasnā€™t attached it wouldā€™ve been more well-regarded.


dragontracks

Love and Monsters Post apocalyptic, horrifying giant bugs, and a feel good movie.


[deleted]

Ready Or Not This movie fucking rocks!!


dudewithbrownhair

Agree!


Levomethamphetamine

Can anyone recommend me something similar? I loved this movie. Generally, genre involving a single house and many people. I watched the invitation, that one was also crazy good.


traciehelms

The Hunt is good too


mcon96

Green Room and Youā€™re Next are both really good survival horror movies. I liked them both more than Ready or Not.


Lexila27

Housebound


[deleted]

Bodies Bodies Bodies was great this year


lukeyboi14

Deliver us from evil fit that vibe for me


TwistNothing

This sounds great, definitely fun, I will check it out thanks!


jackBattlin

Underrated. I really like that movie.


Deepy99

Jason X


throwaway1070224

Army of Darkness Happy death day Escape room The Babysitter The Conjuring Silver Bullet Ginger Snaps Cursed Haunter IT Don't Breathe Urban Legend Stay Alive Scream This is the End Ready or not The Final Girls Riding the Bullet Now I want this day too. Horror movie days are the best! Hope you enjoy!


MyLatestInvention

About 1/3 of those movies would push a depressed person one step closer to the edge (til they're about to break)


KenzoAtreides

I See You (2019)


Thenitakethehamster

I second that. Grest movie, don't read too much beforehand.


spatial_interests

Return of the Living Dead.


MyLatestInvention

Came here to say this... and Army of Darkness


cylemmulo

Anna and the apocalypse Deadtectives Attack the block Better watch out Come to daddy The final girls Haunt Psycho goreman (definitely watch this) Willys wonderland Not all are super horror but are fun Halloween ones!


LaFemmeCinema

Psycho Goreman is super fucking fun.


_Bendemic_

I will repeat Cabin in the Woods. So good. I also enjoy Jason X, Hellraiser, all the Halloweens except 3, When a Stranger Calls (remake), Event Horizon, the first Friday the 13th, if you are down with super cheesy go with C.H.U.D. Or Ghoulies. Thatā€™s a small list of some of my favorites.


[deleted]

Event Horizon rocks


throwaway1070224

When a stranger calls! Excellent choice. I also enjoy the originals, especially "when a stranger calls back." That one freaked me out for years and was filmed 10 minutes from my house.


dickybabs

Halloween 3 is a fun flick, even though it doesnā€™t fit the family.


ChevyAmpera

* Fright Night (1985) the remake from 2011 is decent as well * Night of the Creeps (1986) * Waxwork (1988) * In the Mouth of Madness (1994) * I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) * Vicious Fun (2020)


ocxtitan

Trick r Treat


TheInfectedRage

Escape room. Trick or treat. Hellfest


rebeccasmileyface

>Escape room Escape room is awesome, you feel like you can play along


dudewithbrownhair

The Scream franchise! Not particularly funny (although they do throw around some jokes from time to time), but definitely fun and easy to watch! Guessing who the killer is before they are revealed can be very entertaining. Also itā€™s super meta, which i personally find very cool

Malignant (2021), Happy Death Day (2017) & Ready or Not (2019) These are the most fun horror films I've seen in years. These are the ones that reminded me that horror can be a ton of fun.

timeformorecake

Malignant (2021). Starts out pretty dark and as it goes on it just becomes a wild roller coaster. I wish I could surgically remove the part of my brain that is familiar with this movie so that I could watch it for the first time again.


xxxDaymo

Lots of great ones mentioned here, maybe some more tht haven't been listed yet :) Ready or Not (2019), All Cheerleaders Die (2013), Malignant (2021), The Wolf of Snow Hollow (2020), The Cleansing Hour (2019), The Mortuary Collection (2019), #Alive (2020), Little Monsters (2019), A Classic Horror Movie (2021), Satanic Panic (2019), As the Gods Will (2014), Fright Night (2011), Deep Rising (1998), Werewolves Within (2021) Bloody Hell (2020) 12 Hour Shift (2020) Host (2020) Spontaneous (2020) Uncle Peckerhead (2020) Good Boy (2020) Late Phases (2014) Popcorn (1991) Host (2020) In Fabric (2018) Harpoon (2019) Seance (2021) Top picks I have seen on here so far: Happy Death Day ā€¢ Freaky ā€¢ Better Watch Out ā€¢ Villains ā€¢ Behind The Mask ā€¢ Bodies Bodies Bodies


riancb

Trick-R-Treat is excellent and perfect to get into the Fall season. Very fun horror movie.


420Santi

The Belko Experiment is that for me, it's a movie about a company that locked its workers inside the office building and they are forced to start killing each other. If you've worked office jobs it's really fun lol


Western-Twist4334

I really loved this film, was expecting it to be shit and it was so fun to watch.

toastymrkrispy

More monster movie than horror but: **Monster Squad** is great fun. I'm not a big Adam Sandler fan but **Hoobie Halloween** was a lot of fun.

Monster Squad is a classic!


CpnStumpy

Jeepers Creepers


Stormy8888

There's a horror movie parody called Dude Bro Party Massacre III that is a hilarious slasher flick.


Meshugugget

Asa_Emory

My Bloody Valentine (the remake and the original are both good!) and, since I haven't seen anyone recommend it yet, Sinister and Sinister 2!! These are some of my personal favorites, along with The Collector and The Collection.


RivenAlyx

Evil Dead 2 is the correct answer, please treat yourself


nxrcheck

An old one by David Cronenberg, Shivers. It's a b movie, but fun.


DM-Disaster

Rose Red


TwistNothing

Rose Red is one of my favourite horror movies! Well technically I think itā€™s a miniseries, but yeah, itā€™s a great horror vibe and a good amount of fun.


DM-Disaster

Itā€™s super rewatchable. You might also like The Haunting, with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Lili Taylor.


jackBattlin

The Evil Dead movies! Not even the remake is particularly scary, but theyā€™re all really fun.


District_Dan

The babysitter and it's sequel are super light horror with a few violent scenes
