Oculus (2013) is, despite its shortcomings, one of the best horror movies I've seen.
Maybe because I have siblings, maybe because I'm attracted towards occult and paranormal movies, but it was a fantastic ride from beginning to end.
As a show, not a movie, the excellent Archive 81, which again is a flawed gem, but has one of the best soundtracks a horror movie could ask.
Now and then I'll play it and it needs mere seconds to make my skin crawl.
If we go a bit back, I love Night of the Hunter, not scary per modern standards, but a fantastic story that is seldom seen nowadays.
just watched oculus due to this recommendation, wild fucking ride. very enjoyable and unique. was glad to not see another supernatural formulaic jump-scare based 'horror' movie. has its flaws, but i recommend it to others.
Huzzah!
