Horror Movie where a Kid draws something on paper and then it happens

/u/CaptainJon23 — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 19:50:46 -0400

The title is basically one of two or three things I remember. I think the kid was kind of possessed, and as soon as he drew something, it immediately happened in reality, usually causing tragic accidents. The one scene I remember is where the kid starts to draw his mother, and she breaks through a window and falls. If I remember correctly, she even survives the fall. For some reason, I recall that the color black was very prominent throughout the film. If I had to guess, I would say I saw the movie for the first and last time sometime between 2004 and 2006. I think the movie must be from the late 90s, but if I had to guess, I’d say it’s from the early 2000s.

Just got an email that Shudder is increasing prices to $8.99 a month. I probably don't think they add content enough to keep a constant sub. Going to be an occasional monthly binge now.

What are some badly regarded horror movies that you love?

/u/hellraisinghellhole — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 16:49:13 -0400

I always see a lot of negativity with unpopular opinions posts so I wanted to turn it around, what are some horror movies that are badly regarded that you love? Not in a 'so bad its good way' but ones you genuinely like.

For me personally:
- I am genuinely the #1 fan of Meg 2, maybe the most fun I've had with a movie in the cinemas. I am still hoping for 5 million more meg movies
- Halloween 3 is by far my favourite Halloween movie (though I believe there are some others in the same camp as me)
- I honestly think that both the Unfriended movies are really solid (though I prefer the second over the first)
- I love Jason Goes to Hell
- I loved the Pope's Exorcist, best exorcism movie ever made (if only The Exorcist had Russell Crowe on a Vespa)

Lamberto Bava's Demons 2 (demoni 2) is such great fun and so dam entertaining with some fantastic 1986 special effects.

/u/damienkarras1973 — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 15:40:23 -0400

The sheer fact that Demons 2 takes place in a different confined location like the original but still different works perfectly. I really love the atmosphere of all these people living in this fancy hi rise building with amenities and a gym and everything makes for a great horror setting when all hell breaks loose.

What the HECK is that one guy doing in the huge box is that some kind of confined steam thing? with just his head stick out lol The poor woman enjoying the peace and quiet while getting an indoor tan, on the tanning bed who's in the wrong place at the wrong time lol

Each time I get a rewatch of the movie I can't help but crack up at Sally Day's birthday party meltdown. It's supposed to be a happy day for her, all her friends are there. She gets this fabulous cake and music and everyone's there to celebrate with her and she's just having this massive, I dunno if it was bad timing and pms or what but she's having a complete meltdown about every little thing.

Don't even get me started about Nancy Brilli as Hannah might be one of the most beautiful fake pregnant women in a horror film I've seen and she nails the role. I love how all the people and neighbors all living in the same building are all glued to the TV watching the same movie.

The soundtrack is an absolute banger. Bobby Rhodes once again giving another great performance.

Sally's slow transformation is pretty dam epic and there's still an actual story and drama going on between all the difference characters. The high class escort meeting with her client, the expecting parents, even Sally's parents at the restaurant who left and ate out so Sally could have her party and the Dad is bitching about it lol

I can't currently find it on Shudder but I could've sworn there was a last drive in episode that featured demons 2 despite demons 2 still being on Shudder. Looks like they've got the "just joe bob episode" for demons 2 though.

The Scariest Scene of All Time (Film & TV)

/u/Eb3ast — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 14:52:55 -0400

Hello all! I’m a 23M writer who loves horror and weird fiction. I’m really curious to hear what people consider the scariest scene they’ve personally ever experienced—in all of film, television, or literature. But before that, I’d like to share what I think is, by far, the scariest scene I’ve ever witnessed. I hope it sparks some discussion and maybe even serves as a great recommendation for those who haven’t seen it.

Twin Peaks: Season Two — The final 20 minutes (specifically, the Black Lodge sequence)

I know many of you have probably seen it already—I’m not claiming it’s some hidden gem or that my take is unexpected! But I watched it for the first time just a few months ago, and it absolutely struck a nerve. There are absolutely no jump scares or gore—just a masterful blend of surreal and psychological horror that feels completely unmatched.

Incoherence plays a huge role here. The sequence heavily weaponizes confusion and disorientation in an impressive way. It’s pure nightmare fuel and madness—filled with everything from time loops, doppelgängers, cryptic dialogue, and this strange feeling that “something is wrong”, which only gains more weight as the sequence continues. You feel a sense of dread that’s beautifully layered with sensations of being lost or trapped, all topped off by Lynch’s signature sound design which he has always been notorious for. It’s the type of horror that goes beyond just unsettling you, and its often not big or in your face. Its subtle, uncanny, and tend to linger…

I have seen some compare it to cosmic horror, and as a big fan of the genre, I don’t entirely disagree tbh. Maybe not so much in the traditional scene, but It taps into unnameable fears in a similar way—particularly the fear of losing yourself. It presents a space where time, language, morality, and identity all collapse. Where you not only descend into madness, but become something else without even realizing it. That’s a big aspect that makes it so terrifying: not that it’s evil, but that it’s simply beyond understanding. You can’t fight it, because you can’t even name it. Its the closest thing i’ve ever seen to stepping directly into a nightmare, or how I imagine hell or purgatory would look. Visceral, confusing, and inescapable.

For me, this scene delivers a kind of horror that bypasses the brain and invades the soul. If you haven’t watched Twin Peaks, please do—and if you have, I’d love to hear how you felt about this scene, especially when isolated on its own, separate from The Return. I went into Twin Peaks expecting a good time with some Lynch horror, but I felt spoiled by the end of it. Especially when you get to Fire Walk With Me and the Return, the horror is only emphasized further. It’s one of those scenes that i’d show someone an entire series for just to witness once and it solidified it as my all time favorite show.

RIP David Lynch <3

Has anybody here seen this movie? I feel like it’s only me who has watched it, If you have what do you think about it? For me it’s a great horror movie, Atmosphere, Camera work and overall plot, The ending could’ve been handled a little better as it seemed a little rushed but this movie i’d recommend to any horror lover, It creeps me out anytime I watch it solely for the fact I feel like I have to check my attic to make sure nobody is crawling around up there lmao

Why do Horror movies get such low ratings?

/u/BryanJz — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 11:53:13 -0400

I just watched Hereditary, about to watch Midsommar and maybe The Witch, and to my surprise.. a 7/10 on IMDB? That's absolutely insane to me.

The same goes for:
Witch: 7
Midsommar: 7
American Wolf: 7~
The Descent: 7~
The ring: 7~
Talk to me: 7~
Sinister: 7~

I could even go to certain 7.5s that are classics like the Jason movies, a quiet place to my surprise being a bit higher.

Now, some of the older Horror movies I watched (Thing/Fly/Alien/Shining/Exorcist) do get their 8 and 8.5s.

Why do yall think this is?

Can anyone reccomend any horror movies that are more aesthetically focused than jump scare.

Big into Romanian and Eastern European folklore but don't watch a lot of horror movies as they generally seem to focus on junk scares etc from my experience which I consider a little cheap.

The Woman in The Yard - deep analysis

/u/CriticismRight246 — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 10:48:26 -0400

So I just watched this movie and honestly, it gets a 10/10 from me. It's not your typical horror movie, in fact, it's a horror within itself. Only thing I'd note is a trigger warning. This was a movie that dealt with suicidal ideations, and the analogy that's embedded within this fact is insane for me to even think about.

I understand the notion is that there's 2 interpretations to this movie:

Ramona ended up killing herself (which is what I believe): The woman becoming one with Ramona seems to be the final moment she took her last breath. The montage afterwards was her kids running back to her after she's said her final goodbye, and mysteriously, but happily, moving into the "dream home" her and her late husband envisioned, even with the estate being named after Ramona's favorite flowers. The dog ends up coming back, and a painting is shown with Ramona spelt backwards, similar to her Annie's tendency to draw her R's backwards.

Ramona ended up living for her kids: Instead of killing herself, she decides to live to see all of her children's successes (what the Woman was showing her to depict that "they'll be better off without her" .. what a crazy thing the mind can do to you as a mother). She ends up finishing the house for her family, and they live in their ideal home, the once home that was made by her late Husband. The painting at the end can be interpreted as healing, with the backwards R being there to represent the emotional state and upbringing from what was once a dark place.

The part where I'm stuck on though, is the ending of the movie. If the woman was her suicidal demon all along, who were the children seeing? They must've been seeing a part of Ramona they haven't seen before (her going to Annie, repeating that "everything's alright" and "mommy would never hurt you"). If they were seeing a part of Ramona they hadn't before, that must mean what we say in the movie wasn't actually what was reality for the family. The 2 scenes of Ramona stabbing her child and her trying to recover the dog both ended up being "dreams" or dissociative states shared between the mom and the son. After those dreams they went back into the plot of the movie. If the plot of the movie was portrayed through "The Woman", this must mean that Tay was actually drawing a gun on his own mom, for not only his protection, but his little sisters. What if Ramona actually killed the dog and Annie? Depression being wrapped up in grief can end up in cases that portray similar symptoms to Bipolar, or BPD (depression, suicidal ideations, thoughts of wanting to harm self and others, etc.) What if this whole movie was the kids defending themselves from the horror of their own mom? Tay even mentioned that she "was crazy". Ramona tried to lie to the kids and say that the "Woman" outside was off of her meds. We learn that the Woman is actually Ramona's desire to gain the strength to kill herself and end her misery once and for all.

If what I'm saying is true, then that would mean after long weeks of guilt, self-hatred for living, grief, unpaid bills, and emotional distress towards her children, she actually did decide to kill herself. It seems contradictory, but with the phone being unpaid for Tay to call services, and Annie constantly asking who the Woman was, they could've been talking about their mother the whole time.

Her looking at the daughter's bunny could've been a reason for her to stay, but the house randomly being built threw me off. She was still limping, which meant the house couldn't have been built by her. Or maybe the day was all in her head? People who are suicidal tend to overthink, and think of all the ways possible that other's lives would be better off without them, and possible reenactments of how a day would go if they are there, if they're there but emotionally distant, or if they're not there as a whole. So maybe while she was in bed, this whole day happened and she actually did decide to live for her kids?

My thoughts aren't fully fleshed out, but I want to see what other people might think of this movie.

Just watched Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare and am curious about about opinions.

/u/BasilHuman — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 10:37:04 -0400

I am 67 and I must say it is hard to please me now days when it comes to horror. I watched the Pooh films and Popeye the Slayerman and thought them nonsense and a waste of time. Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare was a damn pleasant surprise! It was well made (directed, decent writing, great set design and solid acting) and the kills were great! This was a top notch slasher. All the Pan elements were there...I particularly liked how they showed alligators killing their prey all on TVs and Tinker Bell made sense as well (at least for me). Formulaic? Yes but who cared? It was a fun ride with a good final girl. Thoughts?

Someone on here, earlier, asked everyone what their favorite horror remake was. MY question is this: What remake do you think surpasses the original?

/u/mprojas1133 — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 10:32:36 -0400

As the title suggests, I’m not looking for your favorite remake. I’m asking what remake do you think is head and shoulders above the original. And to ME, that film is The Crazies. Respect to George Romero, I met the man and I love his films, but his version of The Crazies is borderline unwatchable. Just my hot take. Remake is faaaar superior. Thoughts?

Found Footage

Hi!

I love horror movies, and I tend to watch them at random, so I go in without preconceptions. But due to neurological issues, I cannot watch movies with found footage or flashing lights. Most movies have warnings about the lights, but is there anywhere that lists all of the found footage movies so that I can avoid them?

Thanks for any suggestions:)

So I watched Heretic last night, and I loved Hugh Grant's performance. It totally makes me crave a TV series where Hugh Grant talks Theology. (Think Bill Nye, but for religion.) With the same confident passion as Mr. Reed, but with an open mind / not anti-faith. And anytime he makes a mistake or stumbles he's contractually obligated to do the Noting Hill "Whoopsie Daisy".

Martyrs: a disturbing implication

/u/SpingeBowl — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 06:50:19 -0400

I recently watched Pascal Laugier's shocking 2008 thriller MARTYRS and.....it's terrific.

The first film I've seen in a while to make me feel some deep, raw emotion, a masterpiece in the art of portraying sorrow and the evil of the world.

I could write a college thesis about how well made and deeply scarring this film is and the personal meaning it bears for me, but that's not what I'm here for.

If you're reading this I'll assume you've seen the film already so let's get to the main event.

The entire setup for the story in this film concerns a young girl named Lucie who flees from a hugely distressing situation and ends up in an orphanage, where she befriends another girl named Anna...and we all know where it goes from there on.

Now, I was pondering about this particular section of the story the other day and suddenly something felt off to me: why was Lucie put in an orphanage? The assumption that we come to after watching the film is that she was kidnapped and tortured, possibly while away from her own home, so why isn't anybody claiming her and why isn't this being treated as a missing child case?

You could argue that she was so traumatized by the experience she somehow forgot where she used to live, but she still remembers her name...

Another thing that rings odd in the opening is how she refuses to talk to the gendarmes (police) about what she went through to possibly identify a culprit. Little Anna even says that Lucie told her she wants the people responsible to get caught.

So an idea immediately sprung inside my brain: were Lucie's captors and tormenters her adoptive parents?

Think about it: how would she be able to recognize them after so much time if she was just kidnapped and tortured in a dimly lit room by a woman she doesn't know? It's way more likely that they relocated and changed identities, that's why she goes and looks for them in the opening (and kills them, but apparently that wasn't what she told Anna she was gonna do).

Maybe that's also why she wouldn't want to talk about it, too much shame and felt too close to...well, home, literally.

Then there's that moment where she asks the couple's older son (her stepbrother?) how old he is and if he knows what her parents did to her before killing him.

This all occurs 15 years after her escape, so he would've been 3 years old back then and never really got a chance to know her.

I just think it all makes sense this way and the idea of adopting a child as a way to get a new victim for your insane experiments is incredibly disturbing to me (because this film clearly needed one more layer of disturbingness)

So, what do you think? Plausible theory or just a plot hole? Or maybe there's a line I missed that explains it all (I've only seen the film twice so far)

Let me know!

TL;DR: Were Lucie's tormenters her adoptive parents?

That hell sequence in the movie M 10.28 is pretty freaky.

/u/Marissa__Dreamer — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 05:10:53 -0400

Has anyone else watched the scene I'm talking about?

M 10.28 is some typical low budget Christian movie. And no, it's not a horror movie, but I think it deserves a mention just for that hell scene alone. Most of the movie is so forgettable I don't remember much of it.

But then later the girl dies (I think it was an overdose), and we see her in hell, she's all chained up and with a muzzle in a dark cave. She's looking through the prison bars, and sees some Fraggle Rock muppet thing groaning and being tortured in a pot. She later wakes up in an ambulance screaming. Terrifying scene.

The hell scene is really jarring compared to how lifeless the rest of the movie is. Probably one of the scarier depictions of hell I've seen.

/u/tam_bun — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 04:25:11 -0400

I’m expecting my first baby in May. I’m so excited to be a mom and share the things I love with her.

My mom is another horror lover (her mom was too), and I want to pass on the love for the spooky to my little girl. Another love of mine that’s been passed down by my mom is books and reading. I obviously loved my Courage the Cowardly dog too, but books were my gateway to horror and I’d like to start there.

I have clear memories of some of my favourite childhood books; Goosebumps, The Ghost of Skinny Jack, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. I loved them and would seek them out again and again.

What are some of your favourite spooky books that you’ve enjoyed either as a child or as a parent? Obviously nothing that will traumatize her please! There will be a range of what different ages might enjoy (I wouldn’t read a toddler SSTTITD).

I mean I grew up before streaming so for a long time I didn't have options aside from trips to the video store but now that there is streaming and on demand, I can't watch horror on Tubi, I can't watch horror on cable, I've been spoiled and commercials completely take me out of the movie, it's only the horror genre with tension building and the fear it can put into you just getting completely erased with an Ad break.

What are the creature designs that really scared you and got you going with slow claps later

/u/i_do_da_chacha — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 02:10:45 -0400

For me it was the classics. Xenomorph and facehugger, The thing, The spider in dune(lol), The naked cultists in hereditary, pyramid head from Silent hill. To me these felt like fresh and unique. Usually I've felt most designs are heavily inspired by others, where even though scary still seems to be borrowed by other art or inspirations.

I saw a lot of hype around Alien Romulus, about the ending, and I'm in the minority here I guess, I neither found it scary or unique imo.

Anyway, what are your thoughts?

I really love The Void, The Endless, and Coherence. All movies I stumbled across and had never heard of. Triangle, Glorious, and Empty Man are also pretty good. Anyone have a favorite low budget or just unusual pick?

I love Event Horizon and Annihilation but I’m wondering about your cosmic horror hidden gem.

What horror movie feels like a warm hug to you? I'll go first:

/u/anthonyledger — Sun, 30 Mar 2025 20:58:29 -0400

Paranormal Activity. It's a slow burn. The way it's shot feels personal. The audio plays one of the biggest parts, which is like the original ASMR for the horror franchise, in my opinion. It's a great movie I put on when I need my brain to turn off. What about you?

What is the darkest Goosebumps book or episode in your eyes?

/u/entertainmentlord — Sun, 30 Mar 2025 20:33:56 -0400

I can't remember the episodes name, I do remember thinking wow, this is messed up

If I remember the main characters get transported back in time to medieval times or something similar, and they are hunted down by the main bad guy and taken to the tower of london to be executed. I believe there was also a executioner that scared the crap outta me, its one of those episodes that really stuck with me for a long time.

Oh and haunted mask, mainly cause the idea of anything becoming stuck to my face terrifies me

Anthology shows (80s edition)

/u/Impressive-Taro-807 — Sun, 30 Mar 2025 19:24:47 -0400

I’m going through an anthology shows binge. Tales from the Crypt from the 90s is clearly the best, but I know the 80s was a golden age of anthology shows, so what do you guys think of Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Twilight Zone, Tales from the Darkside, Monsters, Friday the 13th…?

I don’t know why anthology was so big in the 80s, but I wish they’d bring it back.

Also, my favorite anthology show from the 80s is Spielberg’s “Amazing Stories,” which got a bad reboot on Apple TV

Craziest synopsis you’ve ever seen?

/u/LJayTat — Sun, 30 Mar 2025 17:59:43 -0400

I finally got around to watching Titane yesterday and this synopsis is so wildly inaccurate and purposefully misleading that I love it - “Following a series of unexplained crimes, a father is reunited with the son who has been missing for ten years”

The Suckling

/u/DarkBehindTheStars — Sun, 30 Mar 2025 17:05:03 -0400

What a bizarre-ass film this is, and one that kinda lives up to it's name to boot. I can't believe I'm about to type this, but it's plot concerns an aborted fetus that after landing in the sewers and being exposed to toxic waste mutates into a grotesque monster and proceeds to stalk and kill the people trapped inside a brothel that also doubles as an abortion clinic. What a bonkers premise.

It's by no means a good film with acting that's pretty awful even by Horror film standards and a cast of characters you'll be begging for the monster to kill, and it has a somewhat plodding, tedious pace. The whole abortion angle is likely to make some uncomfortable, but it feels like the film is using it to be controversial and edgy for the sake of being so. Yet I can still appreciate and respect the efforts of the filmmakers for clearly trying their best here, making the best of their small budget and limited filming resources, and the immense hard work that went into crafting the monster, who's the real star of the show. The monster has a neat design and the creature effects are solid, and from the age where practical in-camera creature effects were still the standard.

It's not a good film, but I can honestly recommend seeing it at least once purely for the monster and the utterly batshit insane premise that no other film has. A film that truy has to be seen to be believed.

Scariest weather/tornado movie?

/u/sumo_riff — Sun, 30 Mar 2025 16:40:53 -0400

Looking at multiple tornado threats this week in my area. Was wondering what tornado/freak weather event movies I should watch?

Obviously gonna watch Twister (1996). That first scene with the Dad trying to hold the door closed scared the crap outta me as kid.

Fright Night 1985: The Ultimate Vampire Movie

/u/ElenaTGold — Sun, 30 Mar 2025 16:15:35 -0400

Maybe to a lot of you guys this isn’t a hidden gem, but I watched it for the first time a few years ago when my boyfriend showed it to me and had never even heard of it before!

If you were to pick the ultimate vampire movie, which would you choose?
