I usually can’t handle horror media but I forced myself to watch this and its INCREDIBLE OMG. Gory and visceral and truly scary but what an amazing story of a family undone by their own greed, all the performances are amazing, one of my favorite miniseries I’ve ever watched!! Go in blind but prepared to look away lol

finally watched the netflix show and it was so good - i never really watch horror because i'm easily scared but i liked how this was more about the familial relationships than cheap scares - i also thought the actors were past and present were so well casted i literally thought older hugh was the same actor as young hugh but with makeup on anyway if anyone has opinions on which mike flanagan show (haunting of bly manor, midnight mass, fall of the house of usher) to watch next, please let me know!

Something about that show and the way it blurred the line between external paranormal forces and the internal mental landscape made me feel uncomfortable to the point where I nearly had to stop watching it. Really well done, but I would not recommend it if living with mental illness.

Some of the heaviest hitters: * Season 1, Episode 4, Jenifer, dir. Dario Argento — a married detective rescues a seemingly developmentally disabled young woman (who has a beautiful body and a disfigured face) from being murdered. He finds out that she was sent to live at a mental hospital because she has nobody to care for her, so he takes her in to live with his family and develops a psychosexual obsession with her. This is adapted from a 1974 comic by the same name. * Season 1, Episode 8, Cigarette Burns, dir. John Carpenter — Norman Reedus plays a movie theater owner who’s grieving the loss of his wife to suicide and needs money to pay back his father-in-law. He’s hired by a wealthy collector played by Udo Kier to find a lost cursed film, La Fin Absolue du Monde. It’s Carpenter’s goriest and arguably scariest work. * Season 1, Episode 10, Sick Girl, dir. Lucky McKee — two shy quirked up weird girls, unlucky in love but with so much to give—an entomologist, Ida (played by Angela Bettis, star of McKee’s May!) and an artist, Misty—find each other after Ida receives a strange package with an unidentifiable insect. They feel a connection and plan to go on a first date but Misty gets bitten by the bug and starts acting… off… * Season 1, Episode 13, Imprint, dir. Takashi Miike — one of my favorite horror films EVER. It was so graphic and disturbing that Showtime decided not to air it and to just release it on DVD. In Meiji era Japan, an American journalist goes to a brothel on a remote island to search for Komomo, the love of his life, a Japanese sex worker he left behind years ago. A mysterious disfigured woman tells him the tale of Komomo’s fate…
