#jeepers creepers 2 is also pretty good but way more flawed. and they don't play jeepers creepers even ONCE....

wait bestie what're your top five horror movies atm <33
ohh this is such a good question thank u for asking <3 obviously there are some unfailing favourites no matter the time (the final girls, saw, child's play 2, bride, etc) but here are the top five I've seen (well. somewhat) recently 🫶🫶 longish post incoming lol
1. final destination - this film is such a SLAY when I first watched it I barely paid attention and then I rewatched it the next day and had so much fucking fun. alex browning is one my fav horror protagonists ever tbh. and what's not to love about creepy coroner tony todd and death as a series of rube goldberg-esque fatal contrivances...
2. house of wax - they didn't fucking lie. that house can of wax. you've got paris hilton. you've got gayass chad michael murray. you've got sibling dynamics. you've got texas chainsaw inspirations that aren't just derivative or shallow references. you've got a creepy fucking town. you've got a house. of wax. 10/10 didn't deserve one iota of the shit it got from critics when it came out I love that movie sm
3. the black phone - I know you've definitely seen this and idk your thoughts but I had so much fun!! like no I don't think it's a masterpiece but it's its own story and it tells it well it's not trying to be anything else if that makes sense?? the setting the atmosphere the characters the pacing was so good and it's the first good horror movie I've seen at the cinemas since probably candyman. I've never felt so attached to a group of side characters who are dead and gone from the outset of the narrative. slay
4. jeepers creepers - one of those films that's just pure brilliance from start to finish. fucked up and so much fun. I think the lore is unique without being convoluted, and the character writing is on point. one of the few films I've seen that gets sibling dynamics perfectly. and I love that the whole film is centred around the song jeepers creepers like. that's so fucking real...
5. 1408 - mike enslin's horrible! terrible! no good! very bad! day! there's something so compelling about a shitty smug true crime writer getting stuck in a room that actively fucking hates him. I thought the ending was bad but outside of that it's massively underrated. as someone on letterboxd put it it's my favourite nic cage movie that doesn't have nic cage in it <3
