What's the scariest horror movie you seen? 🤔👇
2020 😷
Midsommer - it lingers
Full Metal Jacket still creeps me out and the first Exorcist film.
Yea im with bobbi the more i watch Hereditary the scarier it gets. Kill List, Paranormal Activity (1st one), ghost encounters & sinister are my tops
H.P. LoveCraft From Beyond. That movie still gives me the creeps
Asian horrors are great because they don't rely too much on jumpscares and cg that hollywood loves to do. They emphasize on the story, atmosphere, and suspense which really cranks up the scare meter.
Yeah, they're more psychological.
Don't forget they don't have some random ass sex scenes.
Not necessarily true. There's shit tons of asian movies that used heavy jumpscares as well.
The ghost/monster/etc is always semi-hidden in the scene w/o any jumpscares. If you happen to catch it with your eye once, you are fear gripped till the very end. And that feeling carries with your in real life. Can't sleep normally for a few weeks after that.
jumpscare n cgi lmao u do know america always do jumpscare n cgi
Old Boy shocked me way more than most horror movies I’ve seen. brillant movie
If you ever see a movie called "I saw the devil" is also fantastic. And the dude who plays Old boy is one of the main characters in that . Think you would really "enjoy" (not a happy movie) it.
@@arctic_phoenix9936 are korean movies ever happy?
I wouldn't really consider Old Boy a horror movie though, it's fucked up but I'd consider it more of a thriller/suspense.
It's probably the only movie I've seen that has ever left me literally utterly speechless
There's a really great Korean film called Bedevilled that's pretty disturbing.
Bill: “I don’t understand sex scenes in mainstream Hollywood movies.”
THANK YOU! I don’t watch a lot of horror films to begin with, but I seriously don’t get why so many of them feel the need to pad the story out with unnecessary smut. 😓
It's why I call those scenes "plot irrelevant".
Meanwhile, A LOT of very graphic rape scene, sexual assaults, pedophilia, incest, perverted elements in Asian horror movies. Lol
@@ramahida1006 They add to the horror, unlike lewd Hollywood scenes.
@@whoareyoutoaccuseme6588 oh ho ho i guess you never heard of Hong Kong "Category III" horror movies or Japanese "pinku" horror movies?
@@ramahida1006 Except it actually adds and builds the story up. And honestly there isn't all THAT much difference in the amount of assault and sexual assault or incest elements in Asian films compared to American. It's just in the application and how its made.
Another thing that makes the Japanese horror scary, is that they ground it and they are unflinching in the way that they use the camera to build tension.
I love Michael Myers and Jason Voorhees slashing and hacking people to death, but there's just something about that Japanese, slow-build, unflinching, and terrifying curse story that they have pretty much mastered.
the Asian "The Ring" was way scarier than the Hollywood version and i agree these fake sex scenes are more annoying than helping the story, specially when you watch a movie with the family lol
Yea I saw the Asian one and it made the Nicole Kidman one feel like the diet ring
@Clink Roslam whatever her name is
The only good sex scene I've seen is in Don't Look Now (an overall masterpiece really), it genuinely feels like a married couple at it, so much so that the real life husband of the actress (aka Warren Beatty) thought that it was real lol
@Clink Roslam Naomi watts. I looked it up 😂
@Clink Roslam but they look just alike. Look up a side by side picture of them 😂
Hereditary is the last movie in like 10 years that left me completely scared and scarred. I went to sleep with the lights on, and I usually just watch horror movies to have fun
Watch the dark and the wicked....the ending let's it down...but it is creepy and very well done!!
The scene that stood out to me the most was near the beginning where you see a faint figure of the deceased mom’s ghost smiling in the corner. Saw that and knew I wasn’t going to bed with the lights off for the next 2 weeks.
Same. I don't scare easily but that scene with the mom crawling up the ceiling with all the lights turned off scared the shit out of me.
@Formerly Paul lol....completely different movies!! Similarities....but completely different!!
@Formerly Paul well it's more like a sequel then if that's your case...and not a reboot!!
That opening scene from "The Grudge" scared the shit out of me when it was in the theater. That noise it makes is worse than Hannibal Lecter doing his slithering noise.
You make that slithering noise on public transit uncontrollably
The night i saw that movie is the night i found out the heater in the room i was staying in made that exact noise. I spent 9 hours in the dark staring at the opposite wall trying not to scream.
Saw the film(s) wayyy too young. I'm 23 now and I can say that I'm still a little bit traumatized. Especially going up staircases in houses I visit.
Watched that movie back when I was a kid; I slept with the lights on every night for a whole month afterwards.
@@lokilxix dude.... Fuck that shit , man.
I saw the Wailing, the Korean horror movie, and what happened to the characters in that movie was WAY more fucked up than what happened to a lot of the American 80’s schlock slasher movie victims.
Getting stabbed by Jason is one thing but this was on another level.
excellent movie
Truly amazing film
It's a masterpiece with many layers and metaphors to it but apart from that it's straight up a great horror film for simple viewing too!
The chase scene in the cave is a bit funny though
The Wailing has a superstar list of actors and actresses too. It’s fucking quality
I'm impressed. Bill's finding some of these older and foreign horror classics.
4:06 the Godfather clip with what Bill’s saying killed me, good job editor 🏆
Freakin amazing editing dude, so good with the clips and pictures
Herdetaree
The scariest horror movie I've ever seen is The Grudge--the American release. I thought it was scary because it traumatized me as a kid, but twenty years later, it still does. What scares me about it is not Kayako's croaking sound and freakish movement, but how the film touches on "culture" and "inescapable fate".
The ghost in The Grudge isn't just there to spook you, to guide you to solve her death, or to kill her killers. No, Kayako was an obsessed woman and when she got murdered, she now haunts and murders everyone--literally, EVERYONE. She was so full of rage upon her death that she becomes this 'entity'. Anyone who enters her abandoned house will die by her hands, or let them be possessed by her or her murderous husband. Anyone who touches THAT person who went to her house will suffer the same fate. The curse became a pandemic, and there is no other way to stop it.
Asian horror makes you think that, because most of them are based off of their culture, what if you encounter that phenomenon in real life? What if it really is out there? Much like the Japanese horror film, Noroi, what if we didn't stop it? American horror usually goes with slasher films, basically they tend to lean more on "gore" and murder than horror or fear itself. When they make an American version of Asian horror, just like how Pulse botched Kairo and Ring made a joke out of Ring/Ringu, it just sucks. The only reason why The Grudge stuck with me is because the director of the film is the same guy who directed and essentially created the Ju-On franchise in Japan.
Make that 2, that movie completely ruined me too. I remembered it as scary asf and I thought that if I rewatched it, because of my high expectations, I'd be disappointed. I wasn't, I was as scared as the first time, just 10 years older.
@@bmaaax That movie has left a profound and lasting impact on my psyche, after I watched it when I was 10. Seriously, I still sometimes remember that fucking scene with the woman in the attic every now and then. Clarifying, I'm 20 and some nights after I rewatch, I keep my eyes closed when I wake up at night and refuse to open them.
@@lavans5721 shower hand....
I know the question was scariest movie but the most scared I've ever been made (by something other than my ex) was by reading Stephen Kings "IT". I lived deep in the woods with my 3yo daughter. She was spending the night w/ her father. I had already started getting scared. It was about the middle of the night & my daughter's life like doll spoke. The batteries were almost dead so it sounded demonic. To top it off it said,"Play with me". I was 21 but I instantly turned into a five year old. I had forgotten about the doll & for a second I thought Pennywise was in the house with me. I put the book in the freezer for some reason. Found that stupid $60.00 doll(1989 $60) & first threw it out the door. Still didn't feel safe so I got up the nerve to go outside,pick it up & lock in in the trunk of my car (had to be unlocked using the key. Yeah, a hunk of junk)Spent the rest of the night wide awake,sitting in a corner holding a gun. Next day I did a 10hr shift moulding houses in a Mobil home plant. It was tough but I was thankful to be around ppl. I'm like Bill,I can totally get lost in a story. My heart is pounding right now from remembering the terror I felt that night. Here's the kicker, when I finally got up the nerve to open the trunk to get the doll out the first thing I did was check the switch. It was in the off position. To this day I refuse to watch that movie. I still refuse to read Stephen king while alone at night. Stephen King is to horror what Bill Burr is to comedy. The best in the business.
As far as movies go THE GRUDGE was pretty good. Any movie that shows ppl crab walking freaks me out.
Edit; Tried to shorten it but I'm southern, it can't be helped.
You are lying. The old dane cook bit about the speak and spell dying says the same thing. Play with me.
@@KjtheGreatPro I'm not lying. It was an expensive doll that you had to teach how to talk. When you kissed it it made a kissing sound. Haven't heard a lot of Dean's stuff. Just got into standup because of bill (past five years) if he told this after 1989 he stole it from me. Not the first time I've told this story.
Could have been early 90s. Google it bitch.
And we all know that nothing that's talked about on stage ever happens in real life.
Don't call me a liar FFace pillboy.
That's a good story @CJOK
@@Evanderj Thank you. It's one of the few I've got,been telling it for about 30yrs, 100% true. I really appreciate that.When killjoy called me a liar I got so mad my chest started hurting. Lol
As a absolute horror nut, no supernatural horror ever scares me due to the fact of "HOLY SHIT, AN EVIL GHOST. Wait... that means... undeniable proof in an afterlife... oh, that's fine."
For this reason THE THING is the most terrifying movie to me because of the nature of the monster and how incredibly high the stakes are.
I am so glad Bill understands the connection between porn and human trafficking. It's time we all get with the truth and work to change it.
Bill Burr is too funny
great take bro 🔥
Dudes a legend common guys Bill Hicks
To answer Bill’s question about why people enjoy watching scary/horror movies; it’s because the body’s reaction to suspense/fear can often trigger the “fight or flight” response (accompanied by a rush of adrenaline and, subsequently, endorphins); and the safe/controlled environment of your local theater (or living room) is probably the most sensible place to “trick” your body into inducing a sense of dread via an artificially & manufactured perception of danger
The description of the pornstore at the end was easily the scariest thing about this.
Dis.gus.ting.
Yeah, that rape scene in Irreversible was too much, watched it with my gf at the time, we stopped it at that scene, was too much. (I'm the type who can watch horror at 3am alone, but that scene just was TOO well made it was unwatchable.)
I was already feeling sick after the first scene where they smushed the guy's head in the sex club...the rape scene then scarred me for life...but I wanted to feel cool watching a french movie (had no idea if it truly was) with the Bellucci/Cassel couple...was a teen trying to make me some cultur, so I managed to finish it...after that my only NO for watching movies that friends suggest me is if it has rape scenes. I can't. Nope.
She's fucking LOVING it in the film. Bellucci is an obvious sex fiend
i found it excessive and silly for cinema.
Just hearing about it and seeing the clip made me really uncomfortable
That's a normal reaction, and what the director was going for.
I always skip to the like 3/4th part of the last house on the left
The fact that Bill Burr knows about Audition just makes me so happy.
Scariest movie I've seen was Ju-On. That movie has the worse jumpscares ever. Which is funny, because when the movie came out, everyone mocked it, yet no other scary movie strikes fear into me like Ju-On does.
Kayako basically imprinted on me--that's my most feared image, I think.
The good ol days of telling my mom to stay next to the door when i went to the toilet . Should not have watched that movie when i was 8 lol
@@doubabaOG Bro, I watched it when I was 16 and was afraid to look under my covers. Still am. I might need therapy.
This is super late but have you seen Ju-On: Origins on Netflix? It’s very good I’d recommend especially if you liked Ju-On
@@mooyax Nope, never heard of it. I tend to stay away from netflix productions ever since the death note and cuties fiasco.
I've never gotten scared while watching the movies......it's what comes after......the Paranoia and the nightmares, they have long lasting psychological effects. I still have a chimera in my subconscious that I created after watching a horror flick when I was a child, it fucks with me even after 15 years.
Yup, that's the thing. I have similar memories that I see every time it's even a little dark in the house, things I saw as a kid. That stuff sticks with you. This is why I don't let my daughter watch stuff like this. I don't mind sex and drugs so much because I talk to her a lot but these images I tell her will never leave her head, and young people aren't mature enough to understand that the seeds they plant now really do come up later. It's not worth it. I really do believe it gives power to dark forces, our fear, I'm not messing with it. There are so many more uplifting things out there to waste time damaging your mind for no reason.
@@nicoleowens2318 Sex and Drugs are material things, explainable and justifiable, you can teach to be responsible about them....but what can one do about things that nobody will understand and people, even from your own family call you crazy for telling them ?😂
It's far better to keep away........Also it's a lot better to hear a third person account of horror and supernatural stories. What do you say ? There are no visual stimuli and also no creepy sound effects for the subconscious to catch.
@@vaishnavnegi9640 you're right, a lot of people don't get it, they think it's fun or harmless. I'm glad to see at least I'm not the only one who has some sense 😂
I can attest to that. Now for the last decade i have been very decencitized to horror so i am not affected anymore by any 'new' things and can watch anything now going forward with ease. But the exorcist and to a lesser extent the grudge still stick with me time to time from when i watched them long ago. The craziest thing too about it, is that they just randomly pop into my head so it's not even during times when my brain is even in that horror mindset or thinking of anything remotely scary for the day. It could be years later of nothing then one night just bam pazzuzu white face or linda blair fucked up scarred face flashes in my head and then i wake up in a panic then just put some headphones on with some light ambiance to get back to sleep without my mind wondering again. I find the movie itself kind of funny now in some ways but certain shots of that makeup is enough to be locked in my head for decades. For the grudge one it's why I will never have a cat. I think they are cute and cuddly but i swear i would kill it if i ever heard a meow at the foot of my bed in a half asleep stupor. Why did they have to use a meow for that demon child? haha
@@guitarman0365 most definitely.😂 Same experiences......sometimes when I have these experiences during sleep I too have to keep the bed side lamp on for some time before going to sleep.
Man, you put time into your edits. We all dig it. More please, sir.
One of Bong Joon Ho’s favorites and my personal all time psychological horror favorite is a Japanese movie called Cure. Do yourself a favor and watch it. There’s absolutely nothing like it.
That scene where she steps out of the shadows and do that weird step. 👀
Old Boy is still something I’ll cite as my “favorite movie” when asked, and still surprised how few people have ever heard of it 😅
I'd LOVE a Bill Burr review on Hereditary!!
You mean herdateree?
I love some Asian horror. Ichi the Killer and Visitor Q are awesome. So is Old Boy.
The Ring was my first experience with Asian Horror, and that shit gave me nightmares lol! It was also my last until now because I bought Old Boy because every1 told me its one of the greats...But they never said it was a horror😐
I’ve been looking to find the remastered 2018 ichi the killer. Cant seem to find it on any of the streaming sites and I never download movies. Where did you watch it? Or did you watch the original?
@@Toronto_Man It's on the Google TV app for $3.99.
Ichi The Killer is great. Weird movie but one of my favorites
Man... I wished we all have a bill burr in our life.
Watch “I Saw the Devil” Korean movie! Badass movie!
"Old Boy" was an amazing movie. Also if bill really buys in to the horror movies he should watch "The Taking of Deborah Logan." It isn't the scariest movie ever or anything but it is a relatable premise. Also the full effect of the horror will probably not play out for him immediately but one day when he interacts with someone suffering from alzhiemer's the creepy parts of their behavior will slowly build up the horror. He may not even remember why the behavior is scary in such a situation which will make it feel all the more real.
I am pretty sure they put the sex scenes in movies for women. If you think about how they portray the sex scenes it makes perfect sense that it's intent is to draw in the female audience.
I can't express how endearing it is to hear how scared Bill Burr gets by horror movies.
Lets Scare Jessica to Death is legendary!! i love that Bill knows what the criterion channel is.
Thanks for recommending hereditary dude,!!
Loved it.
You think Asian horror is weird and scary, check out Turkish horror. There is a movie called Baskin which is one of the weirdest, most disturbing thing put to film. This movie is very bizarre but also very coherent which is not easy to do. Let's just say the ending will make you realize how truly f'ed up things can become. Completely unescapable.
Noroi: The Curse. Fucking incredible.
I Saw The Devil wasnt a horror movie but fuck there was some gruesome scenes in that movie. I always felt that Asian movies always topped American movies. You can’t disregard the greats like Scorcese and whatnot but you get what I’m saying. Just a general opinion
That movie fucked me up so bad! I couldn't watch anything even a bit dramatic or action for months!
The Wailing is also a great Korean horror movie
One of the best of the last 10 years. All of Na Hong-jin's films are fantastic.
Possibly the scariest film I've ever seen. So, so good!
Korean movies always give me major anxiety, the climax of The Wailing is a terrific example of that
@@mmyees1167 that's why its fookin awesome
Another Korean horror you should watch is The Wailing. It's brilliant.
Hereditary is like the most metal horror movie since the exorcist lmao
Wow, this just popped up in my feed. When J- horror was emeging from Japan a film came out that was more psychological in nature ( but it does have its moments ).
The film is : Cure. It was directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa ( no stranger in the horror genre ). Its an amazing film that draws you in, I wont say more other than its worth a viewing.
Guys, check out the video called *Kairo | anatomy of the scariest scene ever*
I remember seeing that scene for the first time, it was somewhat so disturbing...
South Korea and Japan do amazing horror films, but a shoutout to France as well, they have many great ones too, and some of the most violent. The Strangers, Martyrs, High Tension, Irreversible, Inside, Grave to name a few.
So many great ones... I was hoping he may bring up Hausu, not on scariness per se but just in terms of awesome Asian movies
Eraserhead is still one of the most uncomfortable things I wish I had never seen. Lololol
Most unsettling film I've watched is the Japanese version of Pulse (I've heard that the American is absolutely awful), go into that one blind, it's not completely "horror" but it has implications as to how we've come to live in alienation two decades later (especially since lockdown).
Here's the movie in full:
archive.org/details/Pulse-OldJapanFilm
Ya i agree that movie scared the heck outta of me not the ghost part but the concept of being alone
@@josuereyes4094 Exactly, although the ghost thing is eery and fits perfectly the theme of technology loneliness, and how all spaces get progressively less populated until there's no one left (love the scene where he chases the ghost in the library)
Thanks for the link!
How this video started and how it ended is awesome
I just knew this clip would have me jumping over to IMDB a dozen times... then I went to the comments section. Yeah I'm gonna be here a while.
Anybody that seen "I saw the devil" knows what I'm talking about!!!
I gotta hand it to Bill for being able to step and talk to someone like Bobby Lee. That guy's creeps me the hell out.
Old boy reminded me dumplings are great and enough time has passed where I need those now
Yeah, the original Grudge haunted me.
Saw it first, before the American one, and I think Takako Fuji, who was the grudge from the first 5 Grudge movies, she is the most terrifying Grudge girl. That stairway scene in The Grudge, with her coming down the stairs, is so unflinching, and it was in fact the other actresses first time seeing Takako in full Grudge makeup and costume. It just scared me.
'. . . HERDETAREE.'
'HE-RE-DI-TARY?'
'Yeah.'
My first scary movie ever was Blair Witch. Never forgot that. I love and watched all kinds of horror films, but the original Grudge films from Japan are on my ban list. I’ve seen them all once, and that’s enough
Let's scare Jessica to death is one of the few movies that make me feel really uneasy watching. Great watch
Bruh The grudge, Shutter
All these freaking movies scarred, traumatized me for days as a kid lmao
Damn
i think my favorite asian horror film is a documentary style movie called noroi or the curse it’s pretty eerie and the story is really interesting
Noroi is on another level of disturbing. Way ahead of the time
The editing is spectacular
3:51 "CUT IT DOWNN!!!" lol
Glad to hear somebody else was scared by Blair Witch Project. That was f'n scary.
Amazing edit in the video mate. Cheers
0:40 yes, these are good shots. Not that constant camera shaking, and frequent transitions to force you to see specific parts of the action. Let the scene play out plainly and cleanly. Let me see everything going on.
Bobby's little voice: "you have to watch it Billy please"
1:26....going down on thee old beaver tail i see. Lmao
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
One way I describe Hereditary is “heavy”. It weighs down on you and is difficult to watch. It’s just so full of pain and dread.
Yes that movie Fucked me up I wasn't expecting that from that movie
The irreversible rape was tame. The fire extinguisher to the face was raw.
Definitely wasn't tame
You’ve seen some shit if you think that’s tame bro
@@TimmySquibs It is uncomfortably long and unexpectedly violent but you always see Monica Bellucci and therefore constantly reminded that it`s a film.
I saw The Audition once and the vomiting feeding scene keeps me from watching it again. I just saw Ringu and I think that was scarier than The Ring.
'The relic' is a different kind of horror movie. Other examples of the same genre are the Mimic series. My personal favourite is Mimic 2.
House (1977) is the pinnacle of wierd J-horror. It's amazing.
2 mins of Asian horror, the rest lmao
'Lets scare Jessica to death' was quite disappointing
1:34 That's a... That's a claaaaam 😂
I highly recommend Kyoshi Kurosawa's “Pulse”. Shit still terrifies me a year after first watching it.
Sympathy For Mr Vengeance is worth watching if you liked Oldboy. A bit slower but brilliant nonetheless.
Let's Scare Jessica to Death was freaky and that ending in the boat Hear me!, hear me! freaked me out as a kid. Another freaky one as a kid was the trilogy of terror where the African curio comes to life.
An Inconvenient Truth ! the fact that people took that seriously is truly hair on end horrifying.
We have a Filipino remake with “Let’s Scare Jessica To Death” called “Patayin sa Sindak si Barbara” lol
Nobody cares kid.. Filipino horror movies sucks
@@toxicjutz1168 Sadly, you're right, mostly.
@@toxicjutz1168 hey let him express himself
@@benevolentdictator9100 nobody's stopping him from expressing himself.. All I was saying was nobody is interested with that filipino movie and that filipino movies absolutely sucks
@@toxicjutz1168 hey hey now man come on really dude come on now
I saw Hereditary when it came out and i dont understand because it didnt scare me. I was unnerved when a certain someone was decapitated, but other than that... it was fine. I watched it with my wife, she was fine and shes a scaredy cat.... what happened?
This man in his 40s watched “Ju On” and turned on all the lights in the house. Freaked me the F out.
Old Boy is Vengeance (part of the Vengeance Trilogy) and Audition is Tortureporn, I wouldn't class either as real horror.
Not like the original Ringu, Ju On or Dark Waters... they're truly terrifying
5:10 pause, holy shet lol please give a raise to your photoshopper
These people all have excellent taste in horror movies. I think Blair Witch is really the dividing line between people with taste in horror and those without, because it's very minimalist. People who don't like it just probably just don't "get" horror films in general.
Hereditary is beautifully shot and _amazingly_ acted...even if the rest of the production had sucked (which it didn't), it would have been scary just on Toni Collette and Alex Wolff's performances alone. Collette might be the greatest actress of her generation; even as well-known as she is, she's horribly underrated imo.
Oldboy is without a doubt one of the greatest movies ever made. Top 10 all time imo
Oldboy is part of a Trilogy. Lady Vengence is amazing.
I havent watched the 3rd. I have it on dvd...just haven committed to it yet.
Babadook is my favorite horror movie. It's good psychological horror
Anyone who likes the one-shot hallway scene in OldBoy would like the scene in the Netflix Daredevil series (season 2) where he's trying to leave a building while a biker gang is attacking him. It definitely seemed like an homage to OldBoy.
If you didn't had nightmares from the Grudge in your childhood. You haven't seen nothig 😂
I'm glad I didn't see the grudge too much. I played my ps2
@@ChaolaoFueChi I'd like to recommend some to you either way.
The original Ju-On The Grudge: is low budget so it doesn't look great now, but I still think it holds up because of their use of camera and lighting and the character of Kayako being complete mystery and terrifying.
I recommend Tetsuo The Iron Man 1 and 2 if you haven't seen them.
Skip The Audition of you don't like Saw-like and torture-porn movies.
I will say that the original Thai "Shutter" is terrifying but also very interesting story-wise.
I also think you could, if you like anime, go and check out Uzumaki or Perfect Blue originally written by Junji Ito. Both are very good, but Uzumaki is the classic and "Perfect Blue" is an underrated classic of his. "Perfect Blue" is a caution to any and all idols, singers, or wannabe actors to be careful about the industry and to stay who you are and true to yourself. Not let anyone tell you who to be or be like. To not aspire or obsess with anyone else. Both are very disturbing and mind-bending.
Hereditary was a good movie, the first half was super unsettling, but it kinda lost me at the second half. I don't know if it's a cultural thing, but movies about evil cults are just not scary to me. Naked old people are not scary, either.
Personally, I found Ju-On (the original Japanese version, the movie, not the mini series) a bit scarier.
Bill Burr should definitely not go see Evil Dead Rises, he would never be the same again
I wonder if Bill Burr would've also liked the 5 minute Muay Thai Fighting tracking shot from Tony Jaa's The Protector
Asian horrors (Thai and Japanese for example), targeting your psyche. It is achieved through relatable story, being realistic, as if it could happen right at your home...that is why, for me, I've quit watching them 😅
Great horror movies creators mostly from Thai, Korean & Japan in the late 90's and early 2000.. nowadays mostly unpredictable, it could be from anywhere in Asia..they could be turkey or Iranians
Hereditary will make you feel cursed after watching it. Like, because I watched it, I feltb like I was about to be possessed by the devil.
Hereditary never scared me but I’m happy bill burr saw babadook
I Saw The Devil is absolutely insane.
A roller coaster is too hard on my body, even though I really enjoy them. Real life tension and fear gets the heart pumping and adrenaline going, but it's 'real', so there are usually serious consequences to what is actually happening. (...and it's typically not good in the end.) But, you know, a good horror movie gives me just what I need. That same adrenaline fueled rollercoaster ride minus any terrible repercussions.
I when I was like 13 or so heard the synopsis of Audition and watched the ending bits and holy shit for a week I was freaked out and I couldn't tell my mom about because I thought she'd never let me use the internet again.
Hooowwww ARE yaaahh!
Geeeeewwwwwd
Loved all of these movies!
Yep agree with Bill at 2:40 here, no idea why people put themselves in that situation.
For me personally it's that my brain goes "HEY, THAT FUCKED UP STUFF YOU JUST SAW.. THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO YOU! ENJOY ME REMINDING YOU OF THIS OVER AND OVER AND OVER FOR THE NEXT THREE DECADES" I'm 32 years old and being in a a garage still fks me up from that cheesy garbage Scream movie from the 90's (I watched 2 decades ago) where a teenager got killed in an automatic garage door.
Hell i'm still fked up from the Metallica Music Video of 'One'. I've had to go to all my family members and beg them to pull the plug if i'm ever in that situation.
I read somewhere (I think Quora) that the main difference between Asian and Hollywood horror in general is Asians actually believe in their ghosts while Americans can casually dissociate with the monsters once the film is over.
How does that help? For starters, in Asian horror, there's like a long intro as to what the monster is and some occasional small scares where nothing's there for a good half of the film, whereas Hollywood horrors rush too fast with the reveal and jumpscares because their audience are a bunch of thrill seekers who don't appreciate suspense building up over a minute long.
