Chris in VA Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Dh and I have a night alone and we're going out for dinner, then watching a movie. We usually watch a scary movie in October! We watched the Paranormal Activity movies and don't want one of those. Have any other suggestions? (Has to be on Netflix.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter's Moon Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Stonehearst Asylum was good - not ghosty or even supernatural for that matter, but still, an excellent thriller. ETA: it's based on Poe's The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Housebound is scary with some comedic elements. You might read the synopsis first to make sure it fits your criteria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 The Babadook is also pretty scary. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stacia Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 The Village I saw this in the theater years ago when it was out. I went by myself. (I was traveling w/ dh while he was on a business trip; he hates scary movies, so I went alone.) At the end of the same row I was in, there was a very tough/macho looking young man (guy in his 20s, I would guess). At one point, that guy jumped & screamed so loudly (at something that happened in one scene) that I jumped because of him. :lol: It made me chuckle that he was scared! I still laugh about it when I think of that movie. So, yes, this might be a good one for a scary movie option. Lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommymilkies Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Housebound is scary with some comedic elements. You might read the synopsis first to make sure it fits your criteria. This was so weird. LOL I think it's a good one, especially if you don't like super duper scary stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slache Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I loved The Village. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted October 24, 2015 Author Share Posted October 24, 2015 The Village is one of my favorites! Seen the Babadook--really liked it, too. Stonehearst Asylum is a big maybe. Anyone like The Awakening? I want a super creepy scary movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacia Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Mr. Brooks is creepy. Not sure if it's the type of movie you're looking for. (Don't know if it's on Netflix....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unsinkable Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Nightcrawler starring Jake Gyllenhal and Rene Russo. Not scary-gory or scary-wet-your-pants but scary-oh-my-people are horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dicentra Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I really liked The Woman in Black but I don't know if it's on Netflix since I don't have Netflix. :) The acting wasn't anything to write home about but it did creep me out.

Mergath Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Oculus is good. Decently scary, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
