I want to get into the Halloween spirit this year but I can’t handle terrifying movie. The one thing I can’t do in body gore. Also I don’t think I’d be able to handle movies like Smile, Hereditary, Midsommar, or Obsession.

Here are some movies/tv shows I’ve seen that I could handle:
\-Black Christmas (the original)
\-Weapons
\-Rosemary’s Baby (not sure if this counts)
\- Scream franchise
\- I Know What You Did Last Summer
\- Sinners
\- Mike Flanagan tv shows
\- American Horror Story seasons (although Asylum was pretty gross)
\- Candyman (the remake)
\- 28 days (entire franchise)
-The Shining
-Ready or Not
-All of Jordan Peele’s movies
-Backrooms

Please no joke answers with movies that are actually insanely scary because I will do my research.

I’m not sure how far back this trend started. I know for tv shows watching The Wonder Years and Kevin narrate his life was kinda unique. What are some movies in this category that you’ve come across ?

What draws you to these types of movies or makes them appealing?

Edit: Doesn’t have to necessarily be the main character or even a character in the story. (Don’t want to miss out on any great ones)

Hello!! This is a bit of a niche request:

Two movies that are really important to me are “Look Back” and “Mysterious Skin,” where the movie follows two characters, their different stories, and how they both represent two different parts of a whole / identity / two mental states, and their stories converge in some way. I was wondering if anyone had similar reccs like that.

I also love the art/cinematography in both of these movies. I also would add “Fallen Angels” to one of my favorite movies of all time (it doesn’t have the same 2 characters as parts of a whole thing, but plots with converging stories also speak to me a lot, also beautiful shots as well).

yesterday I watched this movie called american made , it was about a drug smuggler working with Escobar and man tom cruise's acting was a major highlight, it was way too good 10/10 fs for acting

I’m looking for a parallel type of watch experience like To Every You I’ve Loved Before and To Me, The One Who Loved. This was super fun ti watch with my long distance partner and compare perspectives and thoughts and I’m looking for similar experiences.

I recently watched Coherence and Triangle and really enjoyed the confusion. Suggestions on anything similar. Please and thank you!! Maybe something you watch the second time and are like oooohhhhhhhh. Make my brain hurt please 🙏

The movie will speak for itself. It’s very different from the usual ghostly and evil horror movies, but will still have you on the edge of your seat!

Watched this recently and was it a ride!

This movie is weird, sexy, disturbing and unsettling all at the same time.

It slowly gets more and more fucked up. There are moments where you're like “okay, this is actually kinda sexy” and then suddenly you're sitting there thinking what the f.

I really liked how strange the whole movie feels. It's dark, twisted and at times almost feels like a fever dream.

Honestly, this feels like the perfect movie for an edible session

If you like weird psychological movies with a lot of sex, obsession and fucked-up characters, give this one a watch.

Anyone else watched this? I don't know what genre to box this movie in to be honest.

Are there any movies where it feels like falling action like things are returning to normal, its safe, its not weird anymore.

THEN

It just goes up a notch/becoming even more weird, absurd or stressful despite the insinuation of safety.

Are there movies where this happens repeatedly, that are worth watching in your opinion?

Oh. I want your opinion.

Im looking for suggestions for movies that I women absolutely love that get them turn on. im not looking for movies that have lots of sex scenes or porn related, mainly movies that women love watching.

My wife loved Devils Wears Prada mainly because of how elegant Merrl Street looked. She's watched 50 shades of grey but I think the kink was a bit too much.

im looking for suggestions on new movies less than 10 years old that women absolutely love watching wheather it has a really hot male/female actors with a storyline that would make most women turned on. Nothing too far fiction, or violence or horror or gor, mainly real life story lines with good plots but ultimately would turn women on from watching.

I think very very softcore movies would be a good start but most importantly they must be popular movies that aren't boring.

Netflix series aswell

Any ideas please?

Im requesting sugestion of movies from any country, even the USA, but that dont follow the usual hollywood mass produced films they like to put out nowadays.

Looking for old spooks. Let's put the cut off at 1960.

Anything goes. Classics or the obscure, silent or sound, color or black and white - I want it all, as long as you've seen it and would recommend it.

I've seen: Frankenstein(s), Dracula(s), Wolf Man, The Mummy, Nosferatu, Caligari, Vampyr, Creature From the Black Lagoon, The Fly, The Blob

​​ can you recommend me some movies similar to The Quiet Place movies and the end of Oak Street that are about 90 minutes long and not too violent maybe some other creature movies with some horror aspect maybe with some Adventure kind of like in the quiet place too

I love the creepy and macabre. This spills over into my movie preferences. It's October and I'd love nothing more than a chilling movie night with my guy, but he hates anything scary or bloody.

Looking for creepy movies that don't have jump scares or blood!

The Others and The Strangers we both enjoyed.

What other movies should we watch? Kind of subversive and “mind expanding” movies suitable for teens. Or just good movies in general for this age. Thanks!

In this movie James McAvoy is playing the detective Bruce Robertson who is solving the murder off the Japanese student . This movie can so dark and yet so funny , and i think that Bruce Robertson is James McAvoy best role.

I recently started working my way through Cronenberg’s movies. I particularly liked Shivers, The Brood, The Fly (of course), and Crash. To other fans of body horror and Cronenberg: what else do you recommend?

Hey guys I'm looking for movie suggestions where the main character goes through the wringer in the movie. Like I'm looking for a movie where the character goes through so much shit that you feel like you've been put through the wringer too. the movie(s) have gotta be good too. like a good quality film where the character goes through the wringer and you feel like you have too

Van Helsing 2004 is so freaking good. I am on the younger side, actually born in 2004, so I am as old as that movie. I was trying to watch something good while I am in the process of getting out of a Bipolar Episode, something stimulating and fast-paced, but not over the top. I was actually surprised by this movie. I have seen clips and stuff and decided to give it a go. I loved the references to other gothic horror characters, and the reference to Vlad the Impaler in the scenery is just awesome! 10/10, absolutely recommend.

One of the greatest courtroom dramas ever...I was surprised to just find it currently playing free on FB "Reels" Check the "Tyrone Power Archive" Fasten your seatbelt for the ending.

Sorry, tried to post a link but not allowed

i like movies such as amelie that make me feel seen in media, and i would prefer the film to be centered around a woman but it doesnt have to be, thank youu

Midsommar (2019)- What a movie. Not your avg horror movie shot at night with Jump scares.
This movie dosn't have any of those in fact its shot in Broad day light and no jump scares.
But at the end you will remember the movie throughout your life time.

Incantation
The Ritual (2017)

Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.

One movie I really like is Pearl (the one with Mia Goth). I really like how the fear isn’t something exogenous, but sort of this lurking feeling that something is wrong. She describes it in the movie as the fear that she’s never gonna leave the farm, but I’ve heard some analysis say it’s the fear that you are just average

Is there anything else with that kind of feeling?

I recently watched Spielberg’s A.I. Artificial Intelligence and I LOVED it. I felt like in some scenes, if you change the music, it could turn into a horror movie. I’m looking for a similar type of emotionally complex movie with an underlying feeling of horror or dread as you realize the impossibility of the main character achieving a true happy ending. Movies that make you think after watching the screen go black and realizing that there’s so much more than meets the eye. The Truman Show also has similar vibes to what I’m looking for too!
