Session 9.

More of a psychological thriller than a straight up horror movie, but it has more than its share of creepy moments.

Yeah, that was slow but still pretty good.

I own both of these and still need to watch them.

In terms of thrillers, I actually really liked The Strangers (2008). Also, in that same vein, I watched Them (2006) recently and really liked it a lot as well. The premises are very similar, but Them is more gritty and less Hollywood, if that makes sense. It does have subtitles as well, but there isn't a lot of talking anyway.

Also, I'll mention Cube. Was a pretty cool movie with an interesting premise as well. It's not as "thriller"-ish as the others, but I enjoyed it. It was pretty low-budget as well.

Best supernatural thrillers in no order:

The Orphanage
The Others
Jacob's Ladder (mix supernatural/psychological)
The Exorcist

I haven't seen Frailty yet though

I will also add that Frailty is badass.

I liked The Strangers but I enjoyed Them a bit more, mostly because it kept you in the dark longer in terms of who was doing it all and why.
