There's another film from the same year called Another Earth that works as a great companion piece to it. But that might be too much depression to go through back-to-back. I've only seen one Lars von Trier film, Dogville, and that was crushingly bleak. I hear almost all of his films are like that. <cite>Mythiot posted [p:923603596] in Presenting...

It doesn't fit into any genre, but it still felt wrong to count it!

Snake5555555555 06/20/19 7:28:16 PM #456:	@Nelson_Mandela @CasanovaZelos Really great to see Rosemary's Baby on both of the lists! Going by top 10 only I prefer Zelos' list by a hair due to Caligari and Possession. Though none of the ones I mentioned actually make my top 25. This is my personal current top 25: 1. Pontypool (2008) 2. American Psycho (2000) 3. The Endless (2017) 4. From Dusk till Dawn (1996) 5. The Mist (2007) 6. Resolution (2012) 7. Repulsion (1965) 8. Suspiria (1977) 9. You're Next (2011) 10. Cat People (1942) 11. Red State (2011) 12. Jacob's Ladder (1990) 13. The Devil's Rejects (2005) 14. Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) 15. Kill List (2011) 16. The Cabin in the Woods (2012) 17. The Love Witch (2016) 18. Shaun of the Dead (2004) 19. Nosferatu (1922) 20. Trick 'r Treat (2007) 21. Peeping Tom (1960) 22. The Thing (1968) 23. Bone Tomahawk (2015) 24. Videodrome (1983) 25. Shadow of the Vampire (2000) I left out a couple that could be considered fringe like They Live and The Guest. --- Listen, suffering is a fact of life.

Nelson_Mandela 06/20/19 7:49:23 PM #457:	Oh man so much to cover on that one, Snake Your definition of horror is pretty loose, as I wouldn't even consider #2-#4 horror movies! I really need to see The Mist and Red State. I've heard universal praise for the former and some pretty extreme opinions on the latter. New Nightmare > the original is ballsy but I can get on board with it.

Snake5555555555 06/20/19 7:58:01 PM #458:	Yeah you'll either love or hate Red State most likely. It's hard because I do love The Shining a lot AND the original Elm Street, like they would definitely make the top 50. My big "hooks" that really get me to really love a horror film are high-quality atmosphere, genre subversions and transitions, and great central characters which can sometimes be lost in the shuffle of shock and gore. --- Listen, suffering is a fact of life.

Wooohoo we got another Another Earth fan here! Another Earth is my favorite movie of all time! It's funny, when I first watched back in 2011 I didn't really care for it all that much, but it has really grown on me over the years. It's really such a quiet and contemplative film, and it's interesting how the sci-fi aspects are just background dressing to tell this really human story of redemption. --- Listen, suffering is a fact of life.
