Fasten your seat belts if you like to tickle your nerves!
Undoubtedly, the primary goal of a horror flick is to scare you, but sometimes a movie can go too far with its exhausting details and tense narration. If you’re a fan of over-the-top horrors, here are 6 must-watches for you, picked by Reddit’s veterans.
1. Eden Lake (2008)
First comes Kelly Reilly and Michael Fassbender’s film that is both heartbreaking and unsettling as hell. It follows a newlywed couple who decide to spend their honeymoon at a remote lake, only to realize they’re threatened by a group of mysterious strangers.
2. Hereditary (2018)
“It’s emotionally exhausting. Feels like having a horrible conversation with close family and then doing an intense workout,” says Redditor @YourVelcroCat.
The suspenseful story about a grieving family haunted by a mysterious creature is a tough challenge, so hit play at your own risk.
3. Gerald’s Game (2017)
Adapted from Stephen King ‘s 1992 novel, this psychological horror centers on a married couple, who arrive at an isolated house on holidays that will destroy their lives. It’s a hard watch due to its exploration of the painful themes and their artful treatment.
4.Saint Maud (2019)
“I f*cking loved it but was so deeply uncomfortable,” admits @coco_xcx about this unnerving horror.
5. Funny Games (2007)
Naomi Watts and Tim Roth ’s flick is indeed an emotional roller coaster of a movie that takes a long time for the full extent of the terror to be displayed on screen. Its plot revolves around a couple who get tormented by two young criminals on their vacation.
6. I Spit on Your Grave (2010)
Last is probably the most disturbing horror of the 21st century. It tells the story of a woman who is brutally raped and assaulted by four men and then seeks her bloody revenge against them, and its long and violent rape scenes are extremely hard to watch.
