Indie Horror/Thriller Movies
 
Hey guys,

Need some help. Trying to find movies for date night with my girlfriend. She's into indie horror/thriller. As obscure as you can find I am down, nothing mainstream. She's brilliant at finding titles never heard of and I am not lol. So if you have any suggestions of something preferably with a twist I would love to steal them from you and use them to my own credit ;)

"Room For Rent" (2019)

I watched The Apparition (2012) recently and that was decent enough. Felt like an indie horror to me :).

Whammy 12-07-19 11:09 AM

Exists (2014) - high tension found footage

Gravy (2015) - horror/comedy about cannibalism

Hell Baby (2013) - horror/comedy about demon possession

Shockwaves (1977) - original Nazi zombies?

Stake Land (2011) - coming of age road trip movie...with vampires

Zombeavers (2015) - self descriptive horror/comedy
Blood Moon (2014) - very "B" movie but a good effort
The Monster Project (2017) - film crew interviews "real" monsters

Prevenge

These come with the bonus of arguing whether or not they're horror films afterwards. :D

And in the case of Prevenge whether or not the time might have been better spent having a ninety minute dump :D

@Naisy ... one I found a reasonably fun watch, no real twist though - Dead Birds

I'll give you some of the highlights from each decade. From what I've seen at least.

L'Inferno (1910's)
Dr. Caligari, Nosferatu, The Phantom Of The Opera (1920's)
Dracula, Freaks, The Mummy, King Kong (1930's)
The Mummy's Hand, The Wolf Man, Cat People (1940's)
The Thing From Another World, Invasion Of The Body Snatchers, The Fly, A Bucket Of Blood (1950's)
Eyes Without A Face, The Little Shop Of Horrors, Carnival Of Souls, The Haunting, The Birds, The Last Man On Earth, Night Of The Living Dead (1960's)
The Bird With The Crystal Plumage, The Exorcist, Shanks, Black Christmas, The Stepford Wives, Deep Red, The Omen, Carrie, The Sun That Dreaded Sundown, Eraserhead, Tourist Trap, The Amityville Horror (1970's)
The Fog, Prom Night, Altered States, Creepshow, Videodrome, Cujo, The Dead Zone, Phenomena, The Fly, Henry: Portrait Of A Serial Killer, Monkey Shines, Shocker, Begotten (1980's)
Jacob's Ladder, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, Braindead, Candyman, Interview With A Vampire, The Stendhal Syndrome, Pi, Ringu, The Night Caller, Ring 2, eXistenZ (1990's)
Ring 0: Birthday, Final Destination, The Others, Dark Water, The Eye, The Ring, One Point O, The Orphanage, 1408, Lake Mungo, Mirrors (2000's)
Dear Mr. Gacy, Julia's Eyes, The Skin I Live In, Shopping Tour, The Babadook, The Voices, Thelma, Hereditary, Dachra, Doctor Sleep (2010's)

No 2020's yet.

I decided to mix mainstream and more indie/obscure, but excluded the most obvious ones like Psycho, Alien, The Shining and Saw. Even The Conjuring.
I came close to recommending Day Of The Woman, Cannibal Holocaust and A Serbian Film, but those depend on whether you and your girlfriend have very strong stomachs or not.
