Literally can't find anything that has made me jump for mooooonths now. Last semi-decent movie was the Conjuring 2, but I can't find anything atm highly recommended so I usually watch series :/

Suggestions?!

My favourite in the past year or so. They are not jump scares though, more atmospheric.

Cheers Xiuxiu! I wanted to watch Train to Busin but my gf doesn't like Korean movies, so we'll try The Witch (same actress from Morgan I think?)

Train to Busan is really fun, you're missing out.

Will wait for her to go to work tomorrow morning, and then sneak it in =P

From the top of my head and in no particular order:
- Lights Out (not a masterpiece, but decent and rich on jump scares)
- Don't Breathe (same as above)
- Ti West films, like: The Innkeepers and House of the Devil (great stuff)
- Bone Tomahawk (western-cannibal horror mash-up. Good stuff)
- Goodnight Mommy (unpleasant and creepy as f*** -in a good way)
- Amer (giallo homage that rocks. Fantastic)
- Kill List (just see it, it'll grab you by the balls and not let go)
- What We Do in the Shadows (vampire mockumentary. Hilarious and scary at the same time)
- Antichrist (Lars von Trier. Need I say more?)
- Berberian Sound Studio (also a great giallo homage horror - and just great, good fun)
- I Saw the Devil (korean - but highly recommendable and quite possibly a masterpiece)
- The Babadook (not a personal favourite, but a lot of people like it - and it has plenty of jump scares)
- It Follows (basically an homage to John Carpenter, Halloween and all the other 80s stalker flicks. If you like those, you'll most likely love this)
- Haute tension / High Tension (french and pretty extreme)
- Inside (also French, extreme, gory and not for the faint of heart)
- Raw (more french, veterinarian students with a craving for fresh meat. Not for vegetarians)
- Rec (spanish zombies on the loose - sequels also pretty decent)
- Under the Skin (much more than a horror flick - but it does indeed get under your skin. Not rich in cheap thrills, tho)
- The Neon Demon (more moody and artsy - but with a bloody macabre finale)
- Beyond the Black Rainbow (insane psychedelic sci-fi horror made by the stoned-out son of the man, who gave us Rambo)

And of course old school stuff like The Thing (apropos Carpenter), Argento's Suspiria (apropos giallo) and The Entity (apropos sleazy, misogynistic stuff)

Oh, and I have to add basically any film made by Park Chan-wook - even though your gf don't like korean films. But still, check out Sympathy For Mr Vengeance, Oldboy, Lady Vengeance, Thirst and Stoker. The last two are probably the more horror-ish, but they're all equally twisted and great. And Stoker is his first American film.

Another insanely great korean horror is The Wailing. Simply phenomenal: https://youtu.be/43uAputjI4k

My favorite spooky movie is "Room 1408" i suppose i should recommend it...however i have to add that i am not really a horror movie person, so do take my pick with a grain of salt.

[peterthepan3]

Cheers guys! 1408 is an awesome movie, and I intend to watch It Follows tomorrow, after how you described it (as an ode to some of my favourite stuff):) The Witch was epic btw, so thanks.

Train to Busan is really fun, you're missing out.

If you like zombie movies, Train to Busan is nice to watch really surprised me.
Don't be afraid of the Dark is the last terror movie i saw... anyway, for me there is nothing like old school terror flicks! George Romero's zombie movies ( Dawn of the Dead my fav ), Friday 13TH, The Thing, Aliens....
