the Wailing may not make round 2.
Honestly I haven't watched that one since it first landed on streaming.
I don't remember much about it, but Sinister I do remember enjoying it.

Never saw the Wailing but I liked Sinister and I like Ethan Hawke.

I've noticed that the M/TV Board has kind of weird taste in horror.
As a comparison, here's r/horror's most recent Top 100 List:
Dreadit's Top 100 Horror Films, 10th Anniversary Edition!

Eh I don't know about that list. I actually like our order a little better. That one doesn't give enough credit to the classics for my liking. Psycho at 23, which would have made it a 6 six in this tournament), is kind of wild. But I also haven't seen a lot of the newer horror movies so I can't speak to a number of them.
Though I completely forgot about Pans Labyrinth and probably would have been pushing for it hard to go a long way. If that's horror, that's like top 3 all time for me.

I have it in my current draft (bolded for emphasis, especially the copy) of my horror thread. This is the larger genre writeup and subgenre explanations with the listing for dark fantasy:
quote:
Supernatural/Paranormal
This genre stands in stark contrast to the Killer genre. The horror in this genre is not human and is outside of human control, often with characters entering into realms and gaining knowledge that they should not dabble in.
Possession: Unlike the infection subgenre, the possessing agent here is supernatural (typically demons or ghosts). The central conflict here is the possession itself (in contrast to the occult/demonic subgenre, which may have that as a climactic threat).
Ghosts and Haunted Houses: Like with the giant monster subgenre, don’t complicate things. There will be an actual house and there will be actual ghosts/spiritual entities haunting that house.
Witchcraft and Witches: The witch subgenre typically involves a female practitioner of some form of magic. You’ll find spells, curses, brooms, and black cats. Due to the history of Puritans in America, the mythology of witches is its own subgenre outside of the occult/supernatural that it overlaps with.
Occult and Demons: Black magic. Cults. Satanism. Will have lots of overlap with other supernatural subgenres, as well as monster and psychological genres.
Dark Fantasy: A subgenre of fantasy that blends horror elements with fantasy tropes. Typically the scares aren’t extreme, and this can be a gateway subgenre for younger children to start to understand horror.

Got a link to that thread? Wouldn't mind seeing the category that isn't supernatural or possession. Wouldn't mind watching some newer stuff because I'm sure I'm missing out on some good movies but I certainly lean towards the Scream, The Strangers type stuff over The Exorcist. I just can't do those.

It's a Google Doc right now. Been working on it on and off for 2 years.
It's set up for 11 pages of a thread. I just haven't filled in all the gaps. But once it's done it's copy/paste. Like here is page 11
