I don't know why people get scared at The Shining. Of course, Kubric was a masterful film-maker but I never saw what was scary in it.

Lee Lorenz

Of course, if you've never seen "The Shining," that has to be at the top of the list. The three best Stephen King horror/suspense adaptations are "The Dead Zone," "Misery" and "It."

Misery is an Oscar winning classic. I’ve been wanting to watch Midsommar. Two good recommendations.

Tracy Frazier

I forgot about the horror/scary theme, and was reacting to the Swedish recommendations. However, the action/drama in these films definitely fits into the horror category, on many levels.

Tracy Frazier

This is definitely not horror/scary. In my excitement, I was confused about the theme. Please do Moonstruck whenever you can.

Can't stand Cher but love her in this and Suspect with Dennis Quaid

Red Dwarf

Ready or Not is also a great one

Red Dwarf

Misery (1990) -- based on a Stephen King novel with an amazing/terrifying performance from Kathy Bates. Midsommar (2019) -- written/directed by the same person who wrote/directed Hereditary (heard great things about Hereditary, but I haven't seen it). Wonderfully made and very atmospheric/captivating, but definitely a fucked up movie lol.

Two horror movies that truly got under my skin: VVitch (2015) Hereditary (2018)

PIG

Carrie is a great movie also (1976).

Horror related? I'll throw out some titles. Creepshow (1982) - written by (and co-starring) Stephen King and a stacked cast, five stories in one, GREAT classic. Invasion Of The Body Snatchers (1978) is great, so is An American Werewolf In London, I can't remember if you've seen that one already! Super classic and old is "Freaks" which is not only great but super short (I think it's like an hour!) (Lots of old classic horror movies are only an hour long).

Tic Toc Melody

If you want to go with an older classic, The Apartment has everything, including Oscars. (I’m sorry, I forgot your theme was horror/scary for October. We better do this one right away then. Thanks.)

Tracy Frazier

Moonstruck is a great comedy drama, with two Oscar performances by women, Cher and Olivia Dukakis.

Tracy Frazier

Speaking of Swedish, their Girl With the Dragon Tattoo trilogy is very good.
