I watched Possession(1981) for the first time last night and holy heck was that a mindf*ck of a trip. I had heard great things about it and how it had a cult following but I went in blind otherwise. Loved almost everything about it, very surreal and the film itself contorts to things I can’t even describe by the end - solid 8/10
I also viewed Jacob’s Ladder(1990) last week and that was a wild ride as well!
Anyone have any personal favs or recommendations? I’m not a horror fan by default but just trying to watch some gems I’ve missed during the spooky season 🎃
Haha. Just watched this for the first time this weekend. Great movie. As for psychological horror…when the evil lurks was another I saw recently. Possum, anti Christ, skinamarink, session 9, caveat was good, but I didn’t think it was as psychological as the others.
I’m sure I’ll come up with some more. Maybe I’ll post them later.
Edit: Terrified wasn’t bad (same director as when evil lurks). I didn’t find lake Mungo as scary as others, but worth a watch. The dark and wicked was alright.
