Trick R Treat is a Halloween Classic, watch that if you haven't

Gonna recommend some slower artsy horror films that I really enjoyed but aren't for everyone. If you enjoyed the movies like The VVitch and Hereditary they may be right up your ally.

-A Dark Song (Slow Burn Occult Horror inspired by an actual ritual done by Alester Crowley)

-The Endless (Low-budget Cosmic Horror story about two brothers returning to the UFO cult they escaped from as children)

-Annihilation (Cosmic Horror. A team of female Scientist must cross a growing barrier which allows no people or communication to escape.)

-Men (Folk Horror. A traumatized woman retreats to a quiet English village but finds herself tormented by its inhabitants.)

-The Empty Man (Based on a graphic novel, sort of a mix of a Slasher and Cosmic Horror. A bit overlong and needed to be edited, but enjoyable none-the-less)

-Suspiria (Both the original and the 2016 remake, they are best enjoyed together as the remake compliments the original rather well. A young American woman enrolls in a prestigious German dance school where not everything is as it seems)

-His House (A refugee family flees to the UK. Can they escape the ghosts and trauma of their past while attempting to adjust to their new life?)

-Amulet (Another topical horror film involving refugees in the UK. An ex-soldier moves in to a new flat occupied by a woman and her ill mother where he is tormented by ghost past and present.)

-The Blackcoats Daughter (Slow Burn Religious Horror. Two girls are left alone at a Catholic boarding school over winter break when one of them begins to exhibit unsettling behavior)

Might update with more later if I think of them.
