I watch a lot of horror films. Like at least one a day. Most of them are terrible, so to be honest my bar for what constitutes a good one is pretty low.
I haven't seen any of these films, and I'm a bit of a horror buff. However, I am going to correct that very quickly. I might have to start with the Brian Cox film having only seen him as a bit of a monster in "Succession." But, they all sound worth a scream!
Red11 - no budget, generic plot, well done within it limits, one of my favorite characters of all time - I can't watch a movie without shouting out "Score" since watching this.
I almost didn't watch it because of the title; I was so glad I did though! It actually has a 100% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, if you can believe it!😂
The only one of these I’ve seen is The Autopsy of Jane Doe but it’s a great one! Turned it on one day without looking much into it, expecting it to be another cheap, bad horror movie and was pleasantly surprised!
I stream them on my iPad while I'm doing something that doesn't require a lot of attention...things like sanding, filing (as in with a file, not puttin paper away), painting miniatures or building models, cooking. It's amazing how many you can watch doing that stuff!
One of my adult children loves horror, so I’m going to save this for her! I love creepy/thrilling stuff, but have too many nightmares to watch horror myself 😁.
Oh shoot, I thought I did, but I may have missed it. I’ll double back and look for it. Villanelles are cropping up all over Substack and it’s been so fun to have a new sense of appreciation for them.
"Uncle Peckerhead"? Good grief....
You didn’t like it?😂
Oh, well, I thought it was fun!
I haven't seen it- I just think it's a weird name. Just like that of the star of the animated show "Uncle Grandpa".

Always happy to get some creepy indie recs. The only one I've seen, a few times, is The Autopsy...
It's a good one!

Enjoy! Let me know what you think, and if you have any to recommend please do!

I’ve seen The Fare; that’s a good one!
I’ll check the others out starting tonight! Thanks!
Not seen any of those. Thank you. ‘Uncle Peckerhead’ what a title!! 👌🏼😂

Uncle Peckerhead was awesome!
I'm pretty sure I saw No One Lives and liked it, now I'll have to watch it again to be sure.
Wife liked Storage 24, I kinda slept through it. Will check out the others.

Yeah, the whole ending was a shocker, too...I don't want to post spoilers here but it was equal parts satisfying, disturbing, and creepy!
At least one horror movie a day?!
Amazing!
I just scribbled "Resolution (2012)" on a piece of notebook paper...

That's so cool.
And you never once go, "how about romantic comedy today...", or something? :)
😂 Maybe not rom coms, but I like action flicks, martial arts movies, film noir, classics, and also K-dramas!
The algorithm sure recommends horror, though!😂
Hehe. It's good to know what one likes!
I also have a couple of niches where I go DEEP... 😄
Thank you erniet! I will pass this on to Randy who is a fan of horror genre films, and we will watch a few during this spooky season! 👻
You're welcome! Enjoy!
One of my adult children loves horror, so I’m going to save this for her! I love creepy/thrilling stuff, but have too many nightmares to watch horror myself 😁.
If she hasn't seen some of these I hope she enjoys them!
Say, did you see my villanelle (Reflections on a quote from Charles Bukowski)?
I've got a horror villanelle dropping next week and another (non-horror) in November. I think the November one's the best of the lot...
Oh shoot, I thought I did, but I may have missed it. I’ll double back and look for it. Villanelles are cropping up all over Substack and it’s been so fun to have a new sense of appreciation for them.
The dog was! Rewatching those is always a good time.
Agreed. I was disappointed in the sequel when he wasn't home lol...
Yes! Wasn’t the dog there, though?
An excuse to watch them again…😂
Resolution! My favorite indie horror of all time! You are truly a man of great taste sir.
Thanks! That film is amazing…it walks the fine line between mystery and explanation perfectly!
Couldn't agree more. That ending I actually thought was perfect. The scene with the strange Frenchman... the window visitor... So good!
Yes, I think the scene with the Frenchman is my favorite…it’s so bizarre and fraught with malice but at the same time so calm…
