Dead of Night (1977)
Unexpectedly disturbing, with very little blood.
Boy that got me good. It started out as a cheesy demonic ritual but became much scarier, even somewhat thought-provoking.
I don't want to give it away but I am VERY picky about my horror: not too gory, or corny, or cliched, I don't like any tired tropes about satanic sex cults; don't like goofy effects that soon look dated; don't like gratuitous violence; I'm bored with watching objects move on their own. And this scared me so bad I think I'm just going to look at only happy things for a while.
Not only at the end but by building the tension and emotion throughout, gradually and then to a pitch. I did not see the ending coming either although horror is usually so predictable.
Back to happy thoughts now....
Films of Hope: Neil Gaiman and Guillermo del Toro (2020)
Added a few to my list
Thank you :) should do these lists more often.
I don't know why it's making me write a whole review. It's just an eight-minute movie list. I didn't know Neil Gaiman and Guillermo del Toro were friends though, that's cool.
