I’m a huge fan of horror. Problem is most newer horror overdoes it and is just not *scary* and more “torture porn”, while some 80’s style horror is sort of campy or corny. You have to really look for something good and in my experience it’s either a psychological horror or sci-fi horror that does it best.

I’m not gonna lie I love a few of the slasher/corny ones too ☺️ like Jeepers Creepers (comfort film for me), and the Scream films. There’s something about horror movies with siblings that I like better too.
I really enjoy James Wan, Ari Aster, Scott Derrickson, M. night Shayamalamabing bong and Jordan Peele films (also Sam Esmail, but he’s more thriller probably). If it’s Blumhouse I’ll probably like it 🔥
I’m a fan of the Friday 13th series, Alien, Halloween, and Evil Dead.. But I think the formula has been lost to time and most movies try too hard nowadays, either they never meet expectations of being memorable or “scary”.
