From a horror movie, the audience invariably expects thrills and vivid emotions, but they can not always get them. It is already difficult to surprise an experienced moviegoer with something, and not every director is able to scare us. And yet, there are tapes that sink into the soul of the viewer so much that we do not get tired of watching them.

Audiences miss charismatic characters, an original storyline, or a tense atmosphere. And sometimes subsequent views reveal details that eluded us when we got acquainted with the tape. In any case, these pictures did not leave the audience indifferent, and this is worth a lot.

House of Wax

Director: Jaume Collet-Serra

Genre: horror

Year of issue: 2005

The film was met with controversy by the audience, but continues to be a cult film today. “House of Wax” absorbed the typical elements of the “horror” of that time and appeared before us as a kind of Frankensteincollected from many rags. Company Fox named the film the best “horror” of the year, and Paris Hilton received for her role Golden raspberries…

And yet, “House of Wax” wants to be revisited after a certain time. The main reason for this is an interesting idea. We are constantly shown various maniacs and murderers, but not every psychopath rolls up their victims in a wax shell. Although the tape is a remake, hardly anyone has watched its predecessors. 1953 and 1933…

Deathly Hallows

Director: Sean Byrne

Genre: horror

Year of issue: 2015

Despite the relatively low ratings, this film is recommended for viewing by fans of the genre, and it is almost a matter of honor to revise it. Painting Deathly Hallows maintains a fine line between mysticism and realism, and also has a rather attractive plot, which is very rare for “horror”.

What attracts the tape? First of all, it puts the protagonist in front of a difficult choice. The film was created not only to scare the viewer, but also raises important questions, the answers to which may well become the universal key to many doors in real life.

Solstice

Director: Ari Astaire

Genre: horror

Year of issue: 2019

Daring project Ari Astaire able to impress even a psychologically stable viewer. A high level of naturalism and cruelty, elevated to the Absolute, are the hallmarks of the tape. “Solstice”… The creators of the picture invite us to plunge into the culture of a small Swedish community, the traditions of which not every tourist will like.

You want to return to watching the atmosphere, because in addition to the pagans, the film contains sun-drenched meadows, authentic rituals and many other curious details. Even the population of the community skillfully approaches cruelty – it is very difficult to grasp all the subtleties of the tape from the first try.

Destination

Director: James Wong

Genre: horror

Year of issue: 2000

Before us is another picture that attracts the audience with its idea. “Destination” – this is a film about fate, which relentlessly follows a person and does not want to let him go. The main characters of all parts of the franchise experience visions where large groups of people die and tragedy is prevented. However, death continues to follow its victims and does not leave them alone.

The main feature of the tape is the mystical line, which evokes an uncomfortable feeling of helplessness in the face of fate. The death of heroes usually occurs under ridiculous circumstances, so that we are once again convinced of the power of fate. The picture is often revised in order to refresh the memory of the kaleidoscope of events, and this applies not only to the first part, but also to the entire series of films.

1408

Director: Mikael Hofström

Genre: horror

Year of issue: 2007

One of the most successful novel adaptations Stephen King attracted serious interest among viewers and received many positive reviews from critics. The story of a sinister hotel room trying to kill its guests is not a new concept, but a very effective concept that is catching attention. It is also worth noting a successful cast – John Cusack perfectly played the role of a skeptic and gave the tape additional charm.

When the main character gets into the room, various events begin to happen to him that cannot be explained from a scientific point of view. The filmmakers immerse the audience in an irrational world of horror, and you will definitely want to go there again. This picture is a bright attraction, so few people limit themselves to one viewing.

It

Director: Andres Muschetti

Genre: horror

Year of issue: 2017

The legendary story of the dancing clown Pennywise has been known for a long time and the viewer periodically revises, as a film adaptation Muschettiand the original 1990 year… Of course, not only the negative character is of interest, but also the relationship of friends fighting evil. However, many adore the tape precisely for the image of a bloodthirsty clown.

Pennywise in both versions of the film turned out to be incredibly charismatic – he skillfully lures children into pre-arranged traps, can always find words and interest a potential victim. We can only admire the script and acting skills. Bill Skarsgard…

Haze

Director: Frank Darabont

Genre: horror

Year of issue: 2007

Another adaptation of the novel Stephen King was warmly received by both spectators and experts. This time, the experiments of the military ended unsuccessfully – the city began to shroud in a mysterious fog, from which terrible monsters began to appear. However, further events clearly show that you need to be afraid not of monsters, but of those around you.

Of course, many people re-watch the film. “Mist”, not least for the shocking ending. Also Darabont managed to create a very charismatic villain – miss Carmody, which the viewer manages to hate with all his heart.

Away

Director: Jordan Peel

Genre: thriller, horror

Year of issue: 2017

It was after the release of the tape “Away” it became clear that Jordan Peele Is an extremely talented director who knows how to surprise. Despite the ridiculous budget by modern standards, the picture received a huge box-office success and public recognition. The bottom line is simple – black photographer Chris meets his girlfriend’s family. The man does not even suspect that they are going to put the consciousness of another person into his body.

The idea should be admitted, at least, unusual, and the plot is truly exciting. After watching, you will definitely want to tell your friends about the film, because the tape opens up the genre in front of us from an unexpected side.

From dusk to dawn

Director: Robert Rodriguez

Genre: Comedy, Horror

Year of issue: 1995

Many will say that “From Dusk Till Dawn” – not a classic horror movie and will be right. This film is an incredible mix of genres that will shock even the most seasoned moviegoer. However, the main characters here regularly go to feed the vampires, and some moments are really worth recognizing as creepy.

It is simply impossible to refuse to re-watch the film, and the reason for this is the amazing casting. Danny Trejo, George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino and Salma Hayek They play roles at the highest level and simply fascinate with their charisma.

Shine

Director: Stanley Kubrick

Genre: horror

Year of issue: 1980

This picture, without exaggeration, can be called immortal. Even four decades after its creation, it has not lost its relevance and is capable of scaring the viewer. There are no trendy “screamers” and cool special effects, but a fantastic game Jack Nicholson compensates for any shortcomings.

This tape should be watched again just to refresh familiar images and re-experience the painful atmosphere of the hotel. “Overlook”… Is it worth reminding that many popular memes with the participation of Nicholson are just frames from the cult film “Shine”…
