My dad loved horror movies - not many actually Scared him. After seeing this in theaters he told me he had to turn on all the lights when he got home.
I just saw it for the first time and while I loved it I wouldnāt say this is a Scary Movie. Itās more so a story about ghosts that almost feels like a gothic fairytale.
Nicole Kidman is insanely good in it. The way she can lose her grip on reality while still maintaining her humanity is heartbreaking.
SO, highly recommend watching especially on a foggy/stormy night. And make sure to lock that door behind you thx love u so much xoxo4evr

which I had shared with friends last October and I thought I saved it somewhere in my Notes app but itās lost in the ether :( Iām a huge horror fan and former obsessive. Iāll recommend just a few:
Tod Browningās Freaks (1932) ā watched this on TCM the morning before my like tenth birthday party and it rocked my world foreverā¦ sad and disturbing
The Others (2001) ā gorgeous gothic atmospheric soooo creepy and Nicole Kidman is a vision
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me (1992) ā details the last days of a troubled beautiful teenage girl named Laura Palmerā¦ heartbreaking examination of traumatic cycles and evil forces. I would recommend that you watch the show first though š¤
Barbarian (2022) ā this goes against like everything you said you wanted but I have to put it on here because itās so scary and expertly paced and filled me with dread but itās also hilarious! It has to be my favorite recently released horror movie

Iām still watching them even tho October is over wtf??? I just canāt get enough. Recent greats include:
Noroi: The Curse (2005)
- Found footageā¦ the climax is so good. Great for fans of ghost/demon stuff.
Pulse (2001)
- One of my favourite horror movies ever. Worms its way into your being. Some truly terrifying, iconic scenes and imagery, not to mention quite prescient in its message re: online connectivity and society. Really canāt sing its praises enough!
Ju-On: The Grudge (2002)
- A classic!!! Still hits. Quintessential haunted house domestic strife ghost story. Toshio š¢šāā¬
Audition (1999)
- Probably my least favourite of this batch. Not for the squeamish. Still worth a watch if only for its feminist social commentary.
GonJiam: Haunted Asylum (2018)
- OK this one is admittedly kinda hokey but itās based off a REAL location and the jump scares are amazing!! Some truly spine-tingling moments. Not recommended just before bed lol š¬ (Also found footage)

Iām getting a weird little freak in a week!! Still trying to think of a new name for him as his given name is simply not right BUT maybe itāll spill out of me once we meet.
Also I drank a strawberries and cream dr. pepper yesterday and that was incredible š

Thereās a real sense of catharsis in this song. Peter has said itās about letting go and you can feel that. It is so confident but still feels personal and itās just a damn tune. Also itās in 7/4 if you care about that kind of thing

The first time i saw Possession i said āthis is my favorite movieā approximately four times throughout. the insanely theatrical performances, the color and settingā¦ itās untouchable to me. itās not a For Everyone movie as it is certainly unsettling and strange Horror but its power lies in that uniqueness and itās just straight up beautiful love you xoxo
